Suddenly Seymour Songtext

von Little Shop of Horrors

Lift up your head.
Wash off your mascara.
Here, take my Kleenex.
Wipe that lipstick away.
Show me your face,
Clean as the mornin'.
I know things were bad,
But now they're okay.
Suddenly Seymour
Is standin' beside you.
You don't need no makeup,
Don't have to pretend.
Suddenly Seymour
Is here to provide you
Sweet understanding.
Seymour's your friend.

Nobody ever treated me kindly.
Daddy letf early. Mama was poor.
I'd meet a man and
I'd follow him blindly.
He'd snap his fingers.
Me, I'd say "sure."
Suddenly Seymour
Is standin' beside me.
He don't give me orders.
He don't condescend.
Suddenly Seymour
Is here to provide me
Sweet understanding.
Seymour's my friend.

Tell me this feelin'll
Last till forever.
Tell me the bad times
Are clean washed away.
Please understand that it's still strange and fright'nin'.
For losers like I've been it's so hard to say:
Suddenly Seymour, (Suddenly Seymour,)
He purified me. (He purified you.)
Suddenly Seymour - (Suddenly Seymour -)
He showed me I can (Yes, you can)
Learn how to be more
(learn how to be more)
The girl that's inside me.
(the girl that's inside you.)
With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding,
Seymour's my man. Seymour's your man.
