‘amelie’ original london cast – world’s best papa lyrics
[amélie, spoken]
september 3rd, 1975. at 6:28 pm and 32 seconds, a blue b+tterfly capable of 14,670 wingbeats a minute lands on rue st vincent, montmartre. at the same moment, a sperm with an x chromosome belonging to raphaël poulain makes a dash for an egg inside his wife, amandine. and 9 months later, moi!
[men]
raphaël poulain
likes giving salutes
in his army doctor uniform
always liked the idea of a daughter
[raphaël]
but not so sure now that i’ve got one
[men]
likes to swim
but dislikes wet swimming suits
likes to clean
and organize his tools
he likes his daughter in theory
but doesn’t really like it when he
[raphaël]
has to touch her
[amélie]
world’s best papa
i used to see it on coffee cup
and it’s not just a phrase
every thirty+one days
he provided a monthly check+up
held my hand
inside of his
although there was the glove
every time he came near
i was sure he could hear
my heart filling up full of love
[ensemble]
buh+buh
buh+buh
buh+buh
buhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuh
buh+buh
buh+buh
buh+buh
buhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuhbuh
[raphaël, spoken]
amandine!
[women]
amandine poulain
likes the flavor of stamps
has a nervous twitch around her eye
she likes a bath at bedtime
[amandine]
but dislikes when my fingers wrinkle!
[raphaël]
our daughter’s heart is racing
[amandine, spoken]
mon dieu!
[raphaël]
i think it might be broken
[amandine, spoken]
she’s broken!
[raphaël]
i worry that her heart cannot
handle any stimulation
[amandine]
what do we do?
[raphaël]
we cut all recreation
and teach her at home
[raphaël, amandine]
we can keep her heartbeat stable
your school is the kitchen table
[raphaël]
now
[amandine]
no need to take the school bus
[raphaël]
just leave it to the two of us
[amandine]
no germs or boys or bullies but
[amandine, raphaël]
say h+llo to your new classmate
