Now (It`s Just The Gas) — текст песни (Little Shop Of Horrors)

(Now, do it now
While he`s gassing himself to a palpable stupor
The timing`s ideal and the moment is super
To ready and fire and blow the sick bastard away
Now, do it now
Just a flicker of pressure, right here on the trigger
And Audrey won`t have to put up with that pig for another day
Now-for the girl, now-for the plant
Now-yes I will. . .but I can`t)

Don`t be fooled if I should giggle
Like a sappy, happy dope
It`s just the gas, it`s got me high
But don`t let that fact deceive you
Any moment I could die
Though I giggle and I chortle,
Bear in mind I`m not immortal
Why this whole thing strikes me funny
I don`t know-cause it really is a rotten way to go

(What we have here is an ethical dilemma
`Less I help him get the mask removed,
He doesn`t have a prayer
True the gun was never fired,
But the way events transpired,
I can finish him with simple laissez faire)

Don`t be fooled if I should chuckle
Like hyenas in a zoo
It`s just the gas, it turns me on
But don`t let my mirth deceive you
Any moment I`ll be gone
All my vital signs are failing
Cause the oxide I`m inhaling
Makes it difficult as hell to catch my breath
Are you dumb or hard of hearing?
Or relieved my end is nearing?
Are you satisfied? I laughed myself to. . .
