up here cast - what if? lyrics

[lindsay]
these smiley+face pajamas and this rainbow kitten mug have got to go
what if i throw them both away?
they’re comfy but they chain me to that anvil of a couch
in a defensive crouch
afraid to go and play
i know the rules

[joan]
be sunny, honey, close those knees

[tom]
clorox offensive thoughts and you’ll prevent disease

[lindsay]
it’s like a show where every song’s the same reprise
oh, but breaking out is dangerous
i know the party game
be small and tame

[celeste]
or we will maim you in your sleep

[lindsay]
so buy thе fuzzy pencils, wear the t+shirts with thе hearts
let any darts or weapons sink into the deep
and find a boy, a six or seven out of ten
who cracks a joke you laugh at every now and then
you know you’ll fall in love although you wonder when
oh, what if i try to change this ever+looping tune?
what if i let them see the dark side of my moon?
my brain is like a video store
with a big restricted+section door
with lots of cool stuff hiding in the ultraviolet light
what if i let somebody see me tonight?

i could be that girl from anthro class who felt no shame or guilt
and wore the kilt with the fishnets and the vans
i remember what she said that time, she passed me in the quad
“your diet coke is oppression in a can.”
she thought she sized me up in a single glance
she never noticed me in afro+cuban dance
she’d never think i’d go and buy some plastic pants

so what if i cut the tags and took these for a spin?
what if they’re worth contracting yeast infections in?
they try to put me in a box
but baby, i’m a paradox

oh, what if i let some other parts out of the vault?
what if i hurt someone and don’t think it’s my fault?
time to let the bridges burn
so many lessons to unlearn
what if i let somebody see me?
if they saw what it is to be me
would they be terrified of this sight?
what if we see about “what if” tonight?
