MAGGOT What does that whispy little brat have that you don't have double?
BLACK WIDOW She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile
CORPSE BRIDE How about a pulse?
MAGGOT Overrated by a mile
BLACK WIDOW Overbearing
MAGGOT Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE (sigh)
BLACK WIDOW And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
MAGGOT And she doesn't play piano
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW Or dance
MAGGOT Or sing
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW No she doesn't compare
CORPSE BRIDE But she still breathes air
BLACK WIDOW Who cares?
MAGGOT Unimportant
BLACK WIDOW Overrated
MAGGOT Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW If only he could see How special you can be If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE If I touch a burning candle I can feel the pain If you cut me with a knife it's still the same And I know her heart is beating And I know that I am dead Yet the pain here that I feel Try and tell me it's not real For it seems that I still have a tear to shed
MAGGOT The sure redeeming feature From that little creature Is that she's alive
BLACK WIDOW Overrated
MAGGOT Overblown
BLACK WIDOW Everybody know that's just a temporary state Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate
MAGGOT Who cares?
BLACK WIDOW Unimportant
MAGGOT Overrated
BLACK WIDOW Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW If only he could see How special you can be If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain In the ice or in the wun it's all the same Yet I feel my heart is acheing Though it doesn't beat it's breaking And the pain here that I feel Try and tell me it's not real I know that I am dead Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
A tragic tale of romance, passion, and a murder most foul!
With this hand I will lift your sorrows. Your cup will never be empty, for I will be your wine. With this candle, I will light your way into darkness. With this ring, I ask you to be mine.
