Ya Never Know
I can't believe it, it couldn't be happening
Pinch me girls, it couldn't be happening
All of this sudden success coming out of the blue
(Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo)
I put a sign up, right in the front window
An advertisement right in the front window
"Stop in and see the amazing new plant Audrey Two!"
(Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo)
And the really remarkable thing is that people, they do
(Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo, they sure do)
Seymour that twerp of a klutz finally did something right
Audrey Two drives 'em nuts, what a blessing this wonderful plant should exist
And should rake in the bucks for me hand over fist
Well, how'd I do?
Oh, you was great, Seymour
You sounded sexier than the Wolfman
But you didn't mention the address of the shop! How many times have I told you?
I'm sorry, I was nervous
Where's Audrey? She said she'd be here
Forget about Audrey, I've got three more radio interviews lined up for tomorrow
And the Skid Row Herald Examiner wants a picture!
If I had a mother, she'd be so happy
You're an overnight sensation, Seymour!
Who'da believed it?
One day he pushed a broom
Nothing in his news but gloom and doom
Then he lit a fuse and give him room
Stand aside and watch that motha blow
Explosion, bang, kerboom
Don't it go to show ya never know?
Seymour was in a funk, he was number zero
Who'da thunk he'd become a hero?
Just a punk, he was a forgotten so-and-so
Then one day, crash, kerplunk
Don't it go to show ya never know?
Sit down, Seymour, Chiffon's gon' sing for you
All the world used to screw him
Biff-wham-pow, now they interview him
And they clamor to put his remarks on the air
All the world used to hate him
Now they're startin' to appreciate him
All because of that strange little plant over there
Observe him, here's a chap
Everything is landing in his lap
I just cut my hand and in a snap
Something out of Edgar Allan Poe has happened
Zam, kazap
Don't it go to show ya never know?
One day you're slinging hash, feeling so rejected
Lightning flash, you get resurrected
Make a splash, now you rate the big bravissimo
And with a thunder crash
Crash kerplunk, bam kerboom
Zang kazunk, zam kazoom
Zowie-powie, holy cow, he ordered up a rainbow to go
Wow, pow, look out below
Don't it go to show ya never know?
Pinch me girls, it couldn't be happening
All of this sudden success coming out of the blue
(Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo)
I put a sign up, right in the front window
An advertisement right in the front window
