alan menken - somewhere that's green lyrics

Loading...

[audrey]
i know seymour’s the greatest
but i’m dating a semi-s-d-st
so i’ve got a black eye
and my arm’s in a cast

still, that seymour’s a cutie
well, if not, he’s got inner beauty
and i dream of a place
where we could be together at last

[crystal, spoken]
and what kind of place is that, honey? an emergency room?

[audrey, spoken]
oh, no. it’s just a day dream of mine
a little development i dream of, just off the interstate
not fancy, like levittown
just a little street, in a little suburb, far far from urban skid row
oh, i dream about it all the time
just me, and the toaster, and a sweet little guy…
like seymour

(sung)
a matchbox of our own
a fence of real chain link
a grill out on the patio
disposal in the sink
a washer and a dryer and
an ironing machine
in a tract house that we share
somewhere that’s green

he rakes and trims the gr-ss
he loves to mow and weed
i cook like betty crocker
and i look like donna reed
there’s plastic on the furniture
to keep it neat and clean
in the pine-sol scented air
somewhere that’s green

between our frozen dinner
and our bed-time: nine-fifteen
we snuggle watching lucy
on our big, enormous
twelve-inch screen

i’m his december bride
he’s father, he knows best
the kids play howdy doody
as the sun sets in the west
a picture out of better homes
and gardens magazine
far from skid row
i dream we’ll go
somewhere that’s… green
