Song: According to Plan Lyrics
Mrs. VanDort
It's a beautiful day.
Mr. VanDort
It's a rather nice day.
Mrs. VanDort
A day for a glorious wedding.
Mr. VanDort
A rehearsal, my dear, to be perfectly clear.
Mrs. VanDort
A rehearsal for a glorious wedding.
Mr. VanDort
Assuming nothing happens that we don't really know,
Mrs. VanDort
That nothing unexpected interferes with the show.
Mr. And Mrs. VanDort
And that's why everything, every last little thing,
every single tiny microscopic little thing must go...
Mrs. VanDort
According to plan,
Mr. VanDort
Our son will be married.
Mrs. VanDort
According to plan,
Mr. VanDort
Our family carried,
Mr. And Mrs. VanDort
We'll go right into to the heights of society...
Mrs. VanDort
To the costume balls,
Mr. VanDort
In the hallowed halls.
Mrs. VanDort
Rubbing elbows with the finest.
Mr. VanDort
Having crumpets with her highness.
Mr. And Mrs. VanDort
We'll be there, we'll be seen, having tea with the queen.
We'll forget everything...that we've ever ever been.
Mrs. Everglot
It's a terrible day
Mr. Everglot
Now don't be that way
Mrs. Everglot
It's a terrible day for a wedding.
Mr. Everglot
It's a sad, sad state of affairs we're in,
Mrs. Everglot
That has led to this ominous wedding.
Mr. Everglot
How could our family have come to this?
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
To marry off our daughter to the noveaux-rich.
Mrs. Everglot
They're so common,
Mr. Everglot
So coarse.
Mrs. Everglot
Oh, it couldn't be worse!
Mr. Everglot
It couldn't be worse? I'm afraid I disagree.
It could be land-rich bankrupt aristocracy,
without a penny to their name...just like you...and me.
Mrs. Everglot
Oh, dear.
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
And that's why everything, every last little thing,
every single tiny microscopic little thing must go...
Mrs. Everglot
According to plan,
Mr. Everglot
Our daughter will wed.
Mrs. Everglot
According to plan,
Mr. Everglot
Our family lead,
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
From the depths of deepest poverty,
Mrs. Everglot
To the noble realm,
Mr. Everglot
Of our ancestors.
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
And who'd have guessed in a million years that our daughter, with the face
Mr. Everglot
of an otter in disgrace,
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
Would provide our ticket to our rightful place?
Emily (speaking)
What if Victor and I don't...like each other?
Mrs. Everglot (speaking)
Do you suppose your father and I like each other?
Emily (speaking)
Surely you must...a little...
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot (speaking)
Of course not!
Mrs. Everglot (speaking)
Get those corsets laced properly...I can hear you speak without gasping.
Marriage is a partnership. A little tit-for-tat.
You'd think a lifetime watching us (singing) might have taught her that.
Might have taught her that.
Mr. Everglot
Everything must be perfect
Mrs. Everglot
Everything must be perfect
Mr. Everglot
Everything must be perfect
Mr. and Mrs. Everglot
Everything must be perfect, perfect,
The VanDorts and the Everglots
That's why everything, every last little thing,
every single tiny microscopic little thing must go...According to plan!
Song: Remains of the Day Lyrics
BONEJANGLES
Hey! Give me a listen you corpses of cheer
Leastles of you who still got an ear
I'll tell you a story make a skeleton cry
Of our own jubiliciously lovely corpse bride
BONE BOYS
Die, die we all pass away
But don't wear a frown cuz it's really okay
And you might try 'n' hide
And you might try 'n' pray
But we all end up the remains of the day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
BONEJANGLES
Well our girl is a beauty known for miles around
When a mysterious stranger came into town
He's plenty good lookin', but down on his cash
And our poor little baby, she fell hard and fast
When her daddy said no, she just couldn't cope
So our lovers came up with a plan to elope
BONE BOYS
Die, die we all pass away
But don't wear a frown cuz it's really okay
And you might try 'n' hide
And you might try 'n' pray
But we all end up the remains of the day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
(instrumental)
BONEJANGLES
So they conjured up a plan to meet late at night
They told not a sould, kept the whole thing tight
Now her mother's wedding dress fit like a glove
You don't need much when you're really in love
Except for a few things, or so I'm told
Like the family jewls and a sachel of gold
Then next to the grave yard by the old oak tree
On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three
She was ready to go, but where was he
BONE BOYS
And then?
BONEJANGLES
She waited
BONE BOYS
And then?
BONEJANGLES
There in the shadows, was it the man?
BONE BOYS
And then?
BONEJANGLES
Het little heart beat so loud
BONEBOYS
And then?
BONEJANGLES
And then baby, everything went black
Now when she opened her eyes she was dead as dust
Her jewls were missin' and her heart was bust
So she made a vow lyin' under that tree
That she'd wait for her true love to come set her free
Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand
When out of the blue comes this groovy young man
Who vows forever to be by her side
And that's the story of our own corpse bride
Song: Tears to Shed Lyrics
MAGGOT
What does that whispy little brat have that you don't have double?
BLACK WIDOW
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile
CORPSE BRIDE
How about a pulse?
MAGGOT
Overrated by a mile
BLACK WIDOW
Overbearing
MAGGOT
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE
(sigh)
BLACK WIDOW
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
MAGGOT
And she doesn't play piano
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
Or dance
MAGGOT
Or sing
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
No she doesn't compare
CORPSE BRIDE
But she still breathes air
BLACK WIDOW
Who cares?
MAGGOT
Unimportant
BLACK WIDOW
Overrated
MAGGOT
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE
If I touch a burning candle I can feel the pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
For it seems that I still have a tear to shed
MAGGOT
The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive
BLACK WIDOW
Overrated
MAGGOT
Overblown
BLACK WIDOW
Everybody know that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate
MAGGOT
Who cares?
BLACK WIDOW
Unimportant
MAGGOT
Overrated
BLACK WIDOW
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the wun it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is acheing
Though it doesn't beat it's breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
