Skid Row (Downtown) Lyricsby Little Shop of Horrors Cast. From Little Shop of Horrors Skid Row (Downtown) by Little Shop of Horrors Cast [WOMAN] Alarm goes off at seven And you start uptown. You put in your eight hours For the powers that have always been. Till it's five P.M. [BUM 1] Then You go [COMPANY] Downtown Where the folks are broke. Downtown Where your life's a joke. Downtown When you buy your token, you go Home to skid row. [BUM 2] Yes, you go [COMPANY] Downtown Where the cabs don't stop Downtown [MUSHNIK] Where the food is slop [COMPANY] Downtown Where the hop-heads flop in the snow Down on Skid Row [Girls] Uptown you cater to a million jerks. Uptown you're messengers and mailroom clerks eating all your lunches at the hot dog carts. The bosses take your money And they break your hearts. Uptown you cater to a million whores. You disinfect terrazzo on their bathroom floors. Your morning's tribulation, afternoon's a curse And five o'clock is even worse [BUM 3] That's when you go [COMPANY] Downtown [AUDREY] Where the guys are drips. [COMPANY] Downtown [AUDREY] Where they rip your slips. [COMPANY] Downtown [AUDREY] Where relationships are no go. Down on skid row! [SEYMOUR] Poor! All my life I've always been poor. I keep asking God what I'm for, and he tells me "Gee, I'm not sure sweep that floor, kid." Oh, I started life as an orphan, a child of the street Here on skid row. He took me in, gave me shelter, a bed, Crust of bread and a job Treats me like dirt, calls me a slob, Which I am. So I live [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR] That's your home address. Ya live [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR] When your life's a mess. Ya live [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR] Where depressions' jes' Status Quo. [COMPANY] Down on skid row [SEYMOUR] Someone show me a way to get outa here, 'cause I constantly pray I'll get outa here Please, won't somebody say I'll get outa here Someone tell Lady Luck that I'm stuck here Someone gimme my shot or I'll rot here. [SEYMOUR & AUDREY] I'd do I dunno what to get outa skid [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR & AUDREY] But a hell of a lot to get outa skid [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR & AUDREY] People tell me there's not a way outa skid [COMPANY] Downtown [SEYMOUR & AUDREY] But believe me I gotta get outa skid [EVERYONE] Row! [Thanks to Tori for corrections]
