【Dialogue】
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
LIZZIE
Axe Fall River runs red!
Maggie's washing windows
Father takes a walk
Mrs Borden goes upstairs
And I can hardly talk
I'm so afraid
I went down to the cellar
And searched behinds some stacks
My eyes they never say it
But my hands they found the axe
I'm so afraid
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
LIZZIE
I step onto the staircase
Stepmother hears me not
I step into the bedroom
Oh Lizzie, what have you got
I'm so afraid
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
BRIDGET (spoken)
Oh, miss Lizzie! You startled me!
Mr. Borden's just come home,
he said to keep the noise down.
He'll be napping in the living room
and doesn't want to be disturbed
LIZZIE (spoken)
Maggie, you are going out this afternoon?
BRIDGET (spoken)
Oh, I don't know. I might and I might not.
I don't feel very well
LIZZIE (spoken)
If you go out make sure to lock the door
for Mrs. Borden has gone out on a sick call
and I might go out too
BRIDGET (spoken)
Miss Lizzie, who is sick?
LIZZIE (spoken)
I don't know. Somebody
BRIDGET (spoken)
Somebody?
LIZZIE (spoken)
Yes. She had a note from somebody this morning.
It must be in town.
There is a cheap sale of dresses at Sergeant's this afternoon.
Pennies on the yard
BRIDGET (spoken)
I'm going to have a lovely one
LIZZIE
With Maggie so retired
Stepmother quite undone
Father will be napping
He'll wish he had that son
I'm so afraid
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will
Somebody will die
LIZZIE (spoken)
Maggie! Go and get Miss Russell.
I don't want to be alone in this house
BRIDGET (spoken)
What's the matter?
LIZZIE (spoken)
Father is dead.
Somebody came in and killed him
