School Song - Original Broadway Cast Of Matilda The Musical

[00:22.33]My mummy says I'm a miracle.
[00:28.13]My daddy says I'm his special little guy.
[00:34.16]I am a princess,
[00:38.24]And I am a prince.
[00:40.77]Mum says I'm an angel. (x3)
[00:45.03]
[00:48.32]
[00:51.22]So you think you're A-ble [able]
[00:53.23]To survive this mess by B-ing [being]
[00:55.71]A prince or a princess, you will soon C [see],
[00:57.36]There's no escaping trage-D [tragedy].
[01:01.77]
[01:02.92]If you put in heaps of F-ort [effort],
[01:05.27]You're just wasting ener-G [energy],
[01:07.60]'Cause your life as you know it is H-ent [ancient] history.
[01:11.57]I
[01:12.48]Have suffered in this J-ail [jail].
[01:14.63]I've been trapped inside this K-ge [cage] for ages,
[01:18.08]This living h-L [hell],
[01:19.88]But if I try I can rem-M-ber [remember],
[01:22.20]Back before my life had N-ded [ended],
[01:24.48]Before my happy days were O-ver [over],
[01:26.90]Before I first heard the P-ling [pealing] of the bell...
[01:31.48]Like you I was Q-rious [curious],
[01:33.46]So innocent I R-sked [asked] a thousand questions,
[01:36.15]But, unl-S [unless] you want to suffer,
[01:38.29]Listen up and I will T-ch [teach] you a thing or two.
[01:40.93]U [you], listen here, my dear,
[01:43.23]You'll be punished so se-V-rely [severely] if you step out of line,
[01:45.74]And if you cry it will be W [double, you] should stay out of trouble,
[01:48.04]And remember to be X-tremely [extremely] careful.
[01:51.72]Y?
[01:53.39]Why? Did you hear what he said?
[01:58.02]Just you wait for phy-Z [phys. ed.]!
[02:02.51]What's phys. ed.?
[02:04.83]Physical education!
[02:07.24]
[02:10.11]My mummy says I'm a miracle.
[02:13.32]My daddy said I would be the teacher's pet.
[02:16.90]School is really fun, according to my mum.
[02:19.36]Dad says I would learn the alphabet.
[02:22.99]The alphabet? You'd better learn to listen, kid!
[02:28.34]So you think you're A-ble [able]
[02:31.01]To survive this mess by B-ing [being]
[02:33.44]A prince or a princess, you will soon C [see],
