lirik lagu meek shall inherit – alan menken
[bernstein, spoken]
seymour krelborn
sweety, honey, baby, p-ssycat
(sung)
hey seymour krelborn, you prince you
my name is bernstein, i’m with nbc
i came down here to convince you
to do a weekly tv show for me
seymour krelborn’s gardening tips
for half an hour on sundays at four
t.v.’s first home-gardening program
you’ll make a mint and our ratings will soar
[crystal, ronette, chiffon]
they say the meek shall inherit
you know the book doesn’t lie
it’s not a question of merit
it’s not demand and supply
they say the meek gonna get it
and you a meek little guy
you know the meek are gonna get
what’s comin’ to ’em by and by
[skip snip, spoken]
seymour krelborn
pleased to meet you, kid
skip snip, william morris agency
(sung)
forget the cable we sent you
it’s nice to meet me, the pleasure is yours
now let my firm represent you
we want to book you on lecturing tours
college campus, rotary club
the kind of bookings my office can do
show the plant, then talk, answer questions
it’s educational, lucrative too!
[seymour]
mys future’s starting, i’ve got to let it
stick with that plant and gee
my bank account will thrive
what am i saying? no way! forget it!
it’s much too dangerous to keep the plant alive
i take these offers
that means more k!lling
who knew success would come with
messy, nasty strings?
i sign these contracts
that means i’m willing
to keep on doing bl–dy, awful, evil things!
no! no! there’s only so far you can bend
no! no! this nightmare must come to an end
no! no! you’ve got no alternative
seymour old boy
though it means you’ll be broke again and unemployed
it’s the only solution, it can’t be avoided:
the vegetable must be destroyed!
but then there’s audrey, lovely audrey
if life were tawdry and impoverished as before
she might not like me, she might not want me
without my plant, she might not love me anymore
[urchins]
“they say the meek shall inherit” [seymour]
“where do i sign?”
[urchins]
“you know the book doesn’t lie
it’s not a question of merit
it’s not demand and supply
you’ll make a fortune, we swear it
if on this fact you rely” [skip snip]
“right on the line
that’ll do fine
this copy’s mine
couldn’t go wrong
bye bye! so long!”
[urchins]
you know the meek are gonna get
what’s comin’ to ’em
[seymour, urchins]
you know the meek are gonna get
what’s comin’ to ’em
you know the meek are gonna get
what’s comin’ to ’em
by and by
[mrs. luce]
