Dead Girl Walking (Reprise) [Original West End Cast Recording]

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, J.D., I'm a dead girl walking
(Hey, yo, Westerberg)
Can't hide from me, I'm a dead girl walking
(Hey, yo, Westerberg)
And there's your final bell
It's one more dance and then farewell
Cheek to cheek in hell with a dead girl walking

Whoa, oh
Go Rottweilers!
Whoa, oh
Here we go, here we go now

Veronica? Jason Dean told me you'd just committed suicide!

Yeah, well, he's wrong about a lot of things

I threw together a lovely tribute, especially given the short notice

Ms. Fleming, what's under the gym?

The boiler room

That's it!

Veronica, what's going on?

Got no time to talk, I'm a dead girl walking (hey yo, Westerburg)

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

A Norwegian in the boiler room, just like your dad
And here I thought you'd lost your taste for faking suicides
Step away from the bomb
This little thing? I'd hardly call it a bomb
This is to trigger the packs of thermals upstairs in the gym
Now, those are bombs
People are gonna see 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
You know the only place that Heathers and Marthas can get along is in Heaven!

I wish your mom had been a little stronger (don't talk about my mom)
I wish she'd stayed around a little longer (stop)
I wish your dad were good
I wish grown-ups understood
I wish we'd met before
They convinced you life is war
I wish you'd come with me

I wish I had more TNT!

Ah, ah, ah
Hey yo, Westerberg
Tell me, what's that sound?
Here comes Westerberg
Comin' to put you in the ground
Go, go, Westerberg!
Give a great big yell
Westerberg will knock you out
And send you straight to
