Lyrics: Dave Malloy
Music: Dave Malloy
(grandmother takes the stage. sadie and zippy sit at a table and drink.)
GRANDMOTHER
it’s too soon
for this to fall apart
don’t break my heart
when it’s barely found its beat
it’s too soon
i just picked up my pen
you just taught me to sing again
i thought i saw a smile on your lips
just before you walked away
through the streetlit shadow snow
how could you go?
it’s too soon
and i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
it’s too soon
there’s so much we haven’t done
give me one more night
to nibble on your thighs
we haven’t danced yet
i haven’t twirled you ‘cross the room
and made you swoon
while the jukebox slowly dies
(sadie joins the singing, drunk and too loud.)
ALL but WOLF
i can’t quite remember the last time
that i wrote a love song
quite as terrible as this
GRANDMOTHER
now give me a kiss
it’s too soon
SADIE & GRANDMOTHER
and i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
no i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
ALL
no i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
no i just don’t want it to be over
i just don’t want it to end
