Private Practice lyrics - Dr. Sharp, Emilie
[Dr. Sharp:]
You know I have a private practice
It isn't very far from here
And while I am a little slammed
If you would like I may be willing
Willing... to give you some time
You see, I think I know your problem
I think you ought to let me help
For if you don't I really fear that your condition will get worse, dear
So much worse, dear
Let me give you my time
Just a little time
Time for us to be alone
On our own and talk
Otherwise, you'll stay right here
Where, let's be clear, you can't even walk
So, as I've said, my private practice
I've noticed you don't care for noise
But what I think you'll really like, my dear
Is that it's very quiet
Oh so quiet
Let me give you my time
Now, you're aware that you're bipolar?
[Emilie:]
Painfully aware...
[Dr. Sharp:]
And you've been medicated?
[Emilie:]
Like a horse
[Dr. Sharp:]
You're witty!
But I suspect there's something more
And though I really shouldn't tell you
There-I've told you
Let me give you my time
Just a little time
It's my responsibility, you see, Emilie
To do what I can
As a psychiatrist I swore an oath, to us both
I'm that kind of man
[Emilie:]
What if he's right?
[Dr. Sharp:]
What if I'm right?
[Emilie:]
But no one told me this before...
[Dr. Sharp:]
Well if your doctors were any good
You wouldn't be here, would you?
[Emilie:]
I know this illness is my curse to wear, my cross to bear
But what if there's more?
[Dr. Sharp:]
What if there's more?
[Emilie:]
What if there's more?
[Dr. Sharp:]
What if there's more?
What if there's more?
Let me help you, Emilie
Let me fix you, Emilie
[Nurse over loudspeaker:]
Dr. Sharp, you're needed upstairs, a patient wants restraining
[Emilie:]
I know what he's doing now
Now I see his little plan
Dr. Sharp is not my friend
He is just another man
Presentation Of The Biggest Spoon lyrics - Sir Edward & the League, Emily
[Sir Edward:]
And now, my dear, when good is done
'Twould be remiss not to reward the gracious one
And thou art she, the League has found
Who laid our fallen brother in the ground
[Sir Edward & Rat Chorus:]
To she, our Queen, we raise our claws
'Twould be remiss of us not to unite our paws
And serenade her with our tune
[Sir Edward:]
So thus it falls to me as our tribune
To now present you with the Biggest Spoon
[Rat Chorus:]
Biggest Spoon...
[Sir Edward:]
Ahem...
If you don't mind, my lady
I'll leave the tunnel open
That we may meet again
[Emily:]
Oh yes, of course, Sir Edward
I almost forgot to thank you
For the pencil, I mean
[Sir Edward:]
'Twas my pleasure, my Queen
Up She Rises lyrics - The Captain, Emily & Inmates
[The Captain:]
Lift the anchor, raise the sail
Draw your sword and do not fail
Sight be sharp and aim be true
Captain's blade knows what to do
Through the salty sea air that blows
Up she rises, down she goes
Sailing to someplace that nobody knows
Singing up she'll rise 'til the morning
Captain keeps watch as the darkness grows
Up she rises, down she goes
They'll fall to no harm if my eyes never close
Singing up she'll rise 'til the morning
[Emily:]
What is she doing?
And does she ever sleep?
[Inmate #1:]
Not with her eyes closed
She says she's watch to keep
[Emily:]
She speaks so strangely
She's not from London?
[Inmate #2:]
No, I've heard she's German
[Emily:]
I knew it!
[Inmate #2:]
Keeps to herself
[Emily & inmates:]
But when we're sleeping
Up she'll rise
Up she'll rise
Up she'll rise
[The Captain:]
Through the thunder and rain that flows
[The Captain & Emily:]
Up she rises, down she goes
[The Captain:]
A pirate will fight when her enemy shows
Singing up she'll rise 'til the morning
The Spider's Face lyrics - Dr. Stockill
There's a world outside of these crumbling walls
Where the weak men hide under battles and brawls
And the only pride is a spider that crawls
Into the cracks and calmly waits
For the flies to realize
As they're sitting in the shit and dirt
That their heads all ache
And their bellies all hurt
And there's nothing that can save
Neither drink nor skirt
For the disease has proven fatal and spreading
But the spider knows and will generously give
And he promises the flies that they all shall live
Though the cost of a drop of the cure is dear
How the penny doth flow when it's death they fear
And he cast his web so prodigiously wide
That he snared the whole sniveling world inside
And the lot who couldn't pay him, well, they bloody died
But that's all for the best
Puts the terror in the rest
For you fear the man who can save your life
And your bastard child, and your blithering wife
And the petty little people with their petty strife
So have a cough? Have a chair
For the spider's there!
And the spider sees how to bring them all in line
How to keep them very quiet, how to herd the swine
Though the cost of a drop of the cure is dear
How the penny doth flow when it's death they fear
Now, the spider thinks, what a glorious game
But it's not the gold, and it's not the fame
It's the fear the fools are feeling when they praise his name
For in their prayers they'll say, "he who gives can take away"
And they never ask, not in any last case
Where this plague came from in the very first place
And the spider smiles with a spider's grace
For he knows when all humanity for centuries to come
Envisions God, they will see the spider's face!
Very Strange lyrics - Thomson, Emily
[Thomson:]
I'm glad to see you
I was hoping you'd come
[Emily:]
I was hoping that too
[Thomson:]
Out in the hallway
Who were you running from?
[Emily:]
I was running to you
Where do you want me?
What is it I'm meant to do?
Should I be smiling?
Should I be looking at you?
This is strange... very strange
I don't know why I'm here
Please, won't you tell me?
Well, say something
[Thomson:]
Sorry, I'm sorry
I wasn't thinking, but yes
You might come closer
If you don't mind
I confess
This is strange
Very strange
[Thomson & Emily:]
You're not what I thought you'd be
[Thomson:]
But I'm glad you're here with me
[Emily:]
I'm glad he's glad
[Thomson]
Won't you have some-
I Remember Mornings lyrics - Madam Mournington
I remember mornings
I remember stars
I remember sunlight
And moonlight and firelight and sky
I remember all these things, but why?
This is no place for memories
This is no place for tears
These long-forgotten memories
Must become forgotten years
Here no one has a past
Forget your memories fast
They'll haunt us if we let them last
But why do I remember mornings?
In mourning still am I
This is no place for pity
They're mad-this is the cost
Yet every girl reminds me of the child
The child I've lost
I'll look the other way
Endure another day
Embrace the part that I must play
But why do I remember mornings?
In mourning still am I
And so I'll leave them as I found them
My soul has turned to stone
But these cages that surround them
Just as well may be my own
Was I always grey?
Was I always cold?
When did I become so old?
Was I ever kind?
Did I ever laugh?
Did I ever love?
Did I ever live?
But I remember laughter
And joy before she fell
This life that followed after is no life
I live in Hell
God save me from my past
Let darkness follow fast
I've let her go and said my last goodbyes
But I remember mornings
Now I'm in mourning 'til I die
Nothing lyrics - Dr. Stockill, Emily
[Dr. Stockill:]
I look at them
I look at them and I feel nothing
I hear them scream
I hear them scream and I feel nothing
I watch them bleed
I watch them bleed and I feel nothing
Nothing... nothing... nothing
For they deserve it
I hold them down
I hold them down and I feel nothing
I stop their mouths
I stop their mouths and I feel nothing
I see them die
I make them die and I feel nothing
Nothing... nothing... nothing
For they deserve it
I don't know why
[Emily:]
I don't know why
[Dr. Stockill:]
I don't know why I haven't killed her
[Emily:]
I don't know why he hasn't killed me
[Dr. Stockill:]
There is a voice
[Emily:]
There is a voice
[Dr. Stockill:]
Inside me telling I should
[Emily:]
Telling me my time is at its end
[Dr. Stockill:]
She's just the same
[Emily:]
I'm just the same
[Dr. Stockill:]
She's just the same
[Dr. Stockill & Emily:]
As all the others
[Emily:]
Others... I cannot leave them
[Dr. Stockill:]
She's stronger now
[Emily:]
Because of them
[Dr. Stockill:]
She's stronger now
[Emily:]
I'm stronger now
[Emily & Dr. Stockill:]
Than when I came
Than when she came
[Dr. Stockill:]
My God, it sickens me to touch her
[Emily:]
If only I could get my hands free
[Dr. Stockill:]
And yet, my pulse, it quickens as I do
[Emily:]
If only I could move
[Dr. Stockill:]
Let's play our game
[Emily:]
I'd try to run
[Dr. Stockill:]
Where would you go?
[Emily:]
I'd tell someone
[Dr. Stockill:]
Who do you know?
Come now, you're cleverer than that
I'd find you in five seconds flat
[Emily:]
I'd use the key
[Dr. Stockill:]
How would you get it?
[Emily:]
Someday you'll see
[Dr. Stockill:]
Is that a threat?
There now, she's finally closed her eyes
I wonder why she never cries
There's something keeping her alive
Something that I can't bottle up
She should be dead by now with everything I've done to her
I've given her the strongest dose
Of all these whores she's had the most
She should be underneath the ground
But she's alive
I am the saviour of this world!
For this I've killed a thousand girls
But every time I watch one die
I'm thinking only of the first one
The first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one, the first one
She is the closest thing I have to a companion, yet
I look at her
I look at her and I feel... nothing
Don't Kiss Me lyrics - Veronica, Inmates
[Veronica:]
There was an English lass
As pretty as a rose
But chaste she was and never would she play
From her pretty little a-... hands
To her pretty little toes
A waste it was to keep them hid away
The gentlemen who called her she denied
And like a proper lady would, she cried
You may paint my portrait and buy me champagne
But don't kiss me
You may pet me over and over again
But don't kiss me
You may call me darling and ask me to dance
For dancing is my cup of tea
No, these lips are not for the taking
But if you'll only agree
That we never should part
You'll be breaking my heart
If you don't kiss me!
No lovers would she claim
All sweethearts would she scorn
But one day when a suitor came to call
So saw that, to her shame
Her stocking she had torn!
And at her feet the gentleman did fall
She swished her fan to keep the hound at bay
And like the bless'd Madonna did she say
You may pain my portrait and buy me champagne
[Veronica & Inmates:]
But don't kiss me
[Veronica:]
You may pet me over and over again
[Veronica & Inmates:]
But don't kiss me
[Veronica:]
You may call me darling and ask me to dance
For dancing is my cup of tea
[Veronica & Inmates:]
No, these lips are not for the taking
But if you'll only agree
[Veronica:]
That we never should part
You'll be breaking my heart
If you-
[Veronica & Inmates:]
-don't kiss me!
[Veronica:]
Everybody!
[Veronica & Inmates:]
You may paint my portrait and buy me champagne
But don't kiss me
You may pet me over and over again
But don't kiss me
[Veronica:]
Come on, lads!
[Veronica & Inmates:]
You may call me darling and ask me to dance
For dancing is my cup of tea
No, these lips are not for the taking
But if you'll only agree
That we never should part
You'll be breaking my heart
[Veronica:]
If we ever should part
You'll be breaking my heart!
[Veronica & Inmates:]
If we ever should part
You'll be breaking my heart
If you don't kiss me!
From The Gutter To The Stars lyrics - Emily, Veronica
[Emily:]
Lying in the gutter
Looking at the stars
Listening to her breathing
As she passes through these rusty bars
Free as any bird with wings as wide
I'm free when I am with her
Dancing down the hallway
Laughing at her chains
Others fade away, yet somehow she remains
Strong as any storm, and just as wild
I'm strong when I'm with her
Yes, I know they could separate us
This is true
They don't even hate us
It's just what they do
But, if only in my dreams, I will follow you
From the gutter to the stars
I will wash your stockings
Lace your corset tight
Waiting in the wings
[Veronica:]
No! On the stage with me
[Emily:]
Alright
[Veronica:]
When the curtain closes
[Emily:]
I'll be there
[Veronica:]
You won't go nowhere?
[Emily:]
I'm home when I am with you
With the slightest touch
I'm in Trafalgar Square
Swinging 'round the lamp posts
[Veronica:]
Breathing in clean air
[Emily:]
Will they understand us?
[Veronica:]
Just be brave
[Emily:]
I'm brave when I am with you
Yes, I know they could separate us
This is true
They don't even hate us
It's just what they do
But, if only in my dreams, I will follow you
From the gutter to the stars
[Veronica:]
What is that over there?
[Emily:]
It's a trap...
[Veronica:]
It's a stage!
What is this in my hand?
[Emily:]
It's a scrap...
[Veronica:]
It's a page from a playbill
With both of our names
[Emily:]
Side by side?
[Veronica:]
As it should be!
[Emily:]
It could be?
[Veronica:]
My darling, just look!
[Emily:]
It's a carpeted floor
It's a dressing room door
It's a crowd wanting more!
[Emily & Veronica:]
I can see it now!
[Emily:]
Yes, I know they could separate us
[Veronica:]
They could separate us
[Emily:]
This is true
[Veronica:]
This is true
[Emily:]
They don't even hate us
[Veronica:]
They don't even hate us
[Emily:]
It's just what they do
[Veronica:]
It's just what they do
[Emily & Veronica:]
But, if only in my dreams, I will follow you
[Emily:]
From the gutter to the stars
[Veronica:]
Let me show you what living is!
[Emily & Veronica:]
They could separate us
This is true
They don't even hate us
It's just what they do
But, if only in my dreams, I will follow you
[Emily:]
From the gutter to...
[Veronica:]
From the gutter to...
[Emily & Veronica:]
The stars...
The stars...
