Dead Girl Walking (Reprise) Lyrics

Dead Girl Walking (Reprise) Song Lyrics

---

VERONICA:
(sung) I wanted someone strong who could protect me.
I let his anger fester and infect me.
His solution is a lie.
No one here deserves to die except for me and the monster I created.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Heads up, JD, I?m a dead girl walking!

ALL BUT VERONICA:
(chanted) Hey yo Westerberg!

VERONICA:
Can?t hide from me, I?m your dead girl walking!

ALL BUT VERONICA:
(chanted) Hey yo Westerberg!

VERONICA:
And there?s your final bell,
(school bell rings)
It?s one more dance and then farewell,
Cheek to cheek in hell with a dead girl walkin?!

HEATHER MCNAMARA:
(chanted) Come on, Westerberg!
Here we go, Here we go now!

MS. FLEMING:
(spoken) Veronica! Jason Dean told us you?d just committed suicide!

VERONICA:
(spoken) Yeah, well, he?s wrong about a lot of things.

MS. FLEMING:
I threw together a lovely tribute, especially given the short notice.

VERONICA:
Ms. Fleming, what?s under the gym?

MS. FLEMING:
The boiler room.

VERONICA:
That?s it!

MS. FLEMING:
Veronica, what?s going on?

VERONICA:
(sung) Got no time to talk
I?m a dead girl walking!

STUDENTS:
(chanted) Hey yo Westerberg!
Hey yo Westerberg!
Tell me what?s that sound?
Here comes Westerberg
Comin? to put you in the ground!
Go go Westernberg!
Give a great big yell!
Westerberg will knock you out
And send you straight to hell!

(The boiler room. JD is planting a bomb. Veronica enters)

VERONICA:
(spoken) Step away from the bomb.

JD:
(spoken) This little thing? I?d hardly call this a bomb. This is just to set off the packs of thermals upstairs in the gym. Those are bombs. People are going to look at the ashes of Westerberg and say there?s a school that self-destructed not because society didn?t care, but because that school was society. The only place Heathers and Marthas can truly get along is in Heaven!

VERONICA:
(sung) I wish your mom had been a little stronger.
I wish she stayed around a little longer.
I wish your dad were good!
I wish grown-ups understood!
I wish we met before they convinced you life is war!
I wish you?d come with me—

JD:
I wish I had more TNT!

(WHAM! Veronica whacks JD?s gun hand with the croquet mallet)

JD:
(spoken) Aah! Jesus!

(JD and Veronica scramble for the gun)

STUDENTS:
(chanted) Hey yo Westerberg!
Hey yo Westerberg!
Tell me what?s that sound?
Here comes Westerberg
Comin? to put you in the ground!
Go go Westernberg!
Give a great big yell!
Westerberg will knock you out
And send you straight to hell!

(BANG! They lock eyes. Someone just got shot.)
