[SHEILA]
Thrown in a cage again
I’m at the stage
Where I don’t even care anymore
I’m riddled with pain
But these walls which constrain me
They aren’t the reason I’m sore
I feel my skin shiver
When I think of how I was just sold down the river
Oh, how can my baby go and desert me?
And does she even know how she hurt me?
I hope she does, I hope she does
Oh but the thing I know for certain
Wherever she is, I hope she’s hurtin'
That’s if she’s even thinking about me
Oh, I feel so solitary!
[DOROTHY, KITTY, JUDITH, RAT, and YA-YA groan]
[RAT, spoken]
If they don't let us out of here soon I'm gonna go out of my gourd!
[DOROTHY]
Sick of this room
[KITTY]
Of the racket
[DOROTHY]
The gloom
[KITTY]
It's more awkward than baby's first formal
[YA-YA]
It's like we're in prison
[RAT]
Cuz we are in prison
[YA-YA]
But it feels more like prison than normal
[DOROTHY, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, and YA-YA]
It’s cause of that traitor
That we’re losing our minds here, we hate her, we hate her, oh
[SUSANNAH, spoken]
Is Sheila okay?
[RAT, spoken]
What do you care?
[SUSANNAH, spoken]
I'm s-s-sorry!
[JUDITH, spoken]
Don't apologize, Suzie-Q, that was the best thing you ever done
[KITTY, spoken]
Ugh, shut up, Judith
[SUSANNAH, sung (DOROTHY, JUDITH, KITTY, RAT, and YA-YA)]
Everything’s soured
God, I'm a coward
Now nothing but sadness awaits me
We almost kissed then
I gave an assist to her captor, she’s trapped now, she hates me
And oh, how can my baby know that I’m praying
I could take back the things I was saying?
I hope she does, I hope she does
Oh the thing I know for certain
Wherever she is, I hope she’s not hurtin'
Bet she’s not even thinking about me
Oh, I feel so solitary!
Now anger is raging hate is snarlin'
Still all I think about’s my darlin'
And how she is, and how she is
Oh, and the thing I know for certain (aah)
Wherever she is, I hope she’s not hurtin' (aah)
Is she safe? Is she thinkin' about me?
[INMATES]
Oh, I feel so solitary, oh, so solitary, oh so solitary, oh!
