PROLOGUE/LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
NARRATOR
On the twenty-third day of the month of September in an early year of
a decade not too long before our own, the human race suddenly
encountered a deadly threat to its very existence. And this terrifying
enemy surfaced, as such enemies often do, in the seemingly most
innocent and unlikely of places.
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON

hot dog carts
The bosses take your money
And they break your hearts
Uptown you cater to a million whores

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 COMPANY
So I live Downtown
That's your home address
Ya live Downtown
When your life's a mess
Ya live Downtown

DA-DOO
Da-doo, SEYMOUR
I was walkin' in the wholesale flower district that day
Shoop da-doo,
and I passed by this place where this old Chinese man
Chang da-doo
he sometimes sells me weird and exotic cuttings,
Snip da-doo,
' cause he knows, you see, that strange plants are my hobby.
Da da da da da da-doo.
He didn't have anything unusual there that day.
Nope, da-doo,
so I was just about to, ya know, walk on by,
Good for you,
when suddenly,
Da doo
and without warning,
there was this total eclipse of the sun.
It got very dark and there was this strange
sound like something from another world.
Da-doo,
And when the light came back this weird plant
was just sitting there,
whoop-see-doo
just, you know, stuck in, among the zinnias.
Audrey Two.
I coulda sworn it hadn't been there before,
but the old Chinese man sold it to me anyways,
for a dollar ninety-five.
Sha la la, la la la, la la la loo.
GROW FOR ME
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Doo, sha la la loo, whop whop
Doo, sha la la loo, whop whop
Doo, sha la la loo, whop whop
Doo-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
SEYMOUR
I've given you sunshine. I've given you dirt
You've given me nothin' but heartache and hurt
I'm beggin' you sweetly. I'm down on my knees
Oh, please, grow for me!
I've given you plant food and water to sip
I've given you potash. You've given me zip
Oh God, how I mist you! Oh pod, how you tease
Now, please, grow for me!
I've given you southern exposure to get you to thrive
I've pinched you back hard like I'm s'posed ta
You're barely alive
I've tried you at levels of moisture from desert to mud
I've given you growlights and mineral supplements
What do you want from me? Blood?
I've given you sunlight
I've given you rain
Looks like you're not happy
'Less I open a vein
I'll give you a few drops if that'll appease
Now please, oh-oh-oh please, grow for me!
SOMEWHERE THAT'S GREEN
AUDREY
I know Seymour's the greatest, but I'm dating a semi-sadist
So I got a black eye, and my arm's in a cast
Still, that Seymour's a cutie
Well, if not, he's got inner beauty
And I dream of a place where we could be together at last
A matchbox of our own, a fence of real chain link,
A grill out on the patio, disposal in the sink,
A washer and a dryer and an ironing machine
In a tract house that we share somewhere that's green.
He rakes and trims the grass
He loves to mow and weed
I cook like Betty Crocker
And I look like Donna Reed
There's plastic on the furniture
To keep it neat and clean
In the Pine-Sol-scented air somewhere that's green
Between our frozen dinner and our bedtime
Nine fifteen
we snuggle watchin' Lucy on our big, enormous twelve-inch screen
I'm his December Bride
He's Father, he Knows Best
The kids watch Howdy Doody
As the sun sets in the west
A picture out of Better Homes and Gardens magazine
Far from Skid Row,
I dream we'll go
somewhere that's green
SOME FUN NOW
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Yah yah yah yah, yah yah yah.
Yah yah yah yah, yah yah yah.
Poor Seymour pushed a broom, nothing in his news but
Gloom and doom
Then he lit a fuse
And give him room
He started an explosion,
Holy cow,
That thing went bang ka-boom
And he's havin' some fun now
Some fun now
Ahat with?
What's he havin' some fun now
Sure is
He's a-havin' some fun now
Oh boy
Ain't he havin' some fun now
Now!
Some fun now!
Hot damn
Ain't he havin' some fun now
Yes, ma'am
He's a-havin' some fun now
Oh boy
Ain't he havin' some fun now!
Some fun now
Hot damn
Ain't he havin' some fun now
Yes, ma'am
He's a-havin' some fun now
Oh boy
Ain't he havin' some fun now, now!
Some fun now
What with?
Ain't he havin' some fun now
Sure is
Really havin' some fun now
Oh boy
Ain't he havin' some fun now, now!
Some fun now
Good God, good God
He's havin' some fun now.
Oh boy, oh boy
Yes, he's havin' some fun now
Oh boy
Ain't he havin' some fun now!
Some fun now. Some fun now.
Some fun now. Some fun now.

DENTIST
ORIN
When I was younger, just a bad little kid,
My mama noticed funny things I did,
Like shootin' puppies with a B B gun
I'd poison guppies, and when I was done
I'd find a pussycat and bash in its head
That's when my mama said
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
What did she say?
ORIN
She said, "My boy, I think someday
You'll find a way
To make your natural tendencies pay
You'll be a dentist
You have a talent for causin' things pain
Son, be a dentist
People will pay you to be inhumane
Your temperament's wrong for the priesthood
And teaching would suit you still less
Son, be a dentist
You'll be a success
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Here he is, folks the leader of the plaque!
Watch him suck up that gas!
Oh, my god!
He's a dentist and he'll never ever be any good
Who wants their teeth done by the Marquis de Sade?
PATIENT
Oh that hurts! I'm not numb!
ORIN
Oh, shut up. Open wide. here I come!
I am your dentist
PATIENT
Goodness gracious!
ORIN
And I enjoy the career that I picked
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Really love it
ORIN
I am your dentist
PATIENT
Fitting braces
ORIN
And I get off on the pain I inflict
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Really love it
ORIN
I thrill when I drill a bicuspid
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Bicuspid
ORIN
It's swell though they tell me I'm maladjusted
And though it may cause my patients distress,
Somewhere, somewhere in heaven above me
I know, I know, that my mama's proud of me
Oh, mama
'Cause I'm a dentist and a success
Say ah!
PATIENT
Ah!
ORIN
Say ah!
PATIENT
Ah!
ORIN
Say ah!
PATIENT
Ah!
ORIN
Now spit!
FEED ME/GIT IT
AUDREY II
Feed me. Feed me. Feed me.
Feed me, Seymour
Feed me all night long
That's right, boy!
You can do it
Feed me, Seymour
Feed me all night long
Ha, ha, ha, ha ha
'Cause if you feed me, Seymour,
I can grow up big and strong
Would you like a Cadillac car?
Or a guest shot on Jack Paar?
How about a date with Hedy Lamarr?
You gonna git it.
If you want it, baby
How would you like to be a big wheel,
Dinin' out for every meal?
I'm the plant to make it all real
You gonna git it
Hey, I'm your genie, I'm your friend
I'm your willing slave
Take a chance just feed me, and
You know what kinda eats,
what kinda red hot treats,
What kinda sticky licky sweets I crave
Come on, Seymour, don't be a putz
Trust me and your life will surely rival King Tut's
Show a little initiative, boy
Work up some guts
And you'll git it
SEYMOUR
I don't know
I don't know
I have so, so many strong reservations
Should I go and perform mutilations?
AUDREY II
Think about a room at the Ritz,
Wrapped in velvet, covered in glitz
A little nookie gonna clean up those zits
And you'll git it
SEYMOUR
Gee, I'd like a Harley machine
Toolin' around like I was James Dean,
Makin' all the guys on the corner turn green
AUDREY II
So go git it
If you want to be profound,
If you really got to justify,
Take a breath and look around
A lot of folks deserve to die
ORIN (Spoken)
Stupid woman. Christ, what a friggin' scatterbrain.
Falls off the motorcycle
AUDREY (Spoken)
I'm sorry, doctor
AUDREY II, SEYMOUR
If you want a rationale,
It isn't very hard to see, no, no, no
Stop and think it over, pal
The guy sure looks like plant foot to me
The guy sure looks like plant food to me
The guy sure looks like plant food to me
SEYMOUR
He's so nasty, treatin' her rough,
AUDREY II
Smackin' her around and always talkin' so tough
SEYMOUR
You need blood and he's got more than enough
AUDREY II
I need blood and he's got more than enough
BOTH
I/You need blood and he's got more than enough
AUDREY II
So go git it!
SUDDENLY, SEYMOUR
Lift up your head
Wash off your mascara
Here, take my Kleenex
Wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face, clean as the mornin'
I know things were bad, but now they're okay
Suddenly Seymour is standin' beside you
You don't need no makeup, don't have to pretend
Suddenly Seymour is here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend
AUDREY
Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early
Mama was poor
I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers
Me, I'd say "sure."
Suddenly Seymour is standin' beside me
He don't give me orders
He don't condescend
Suddenly Seymour is here to provide me
Sweet understanding
Seymour's my friend
SEYMOUR
Tell me this feelin'll last till forever
Tell me the bad times are clean washed away
AUDREY
Please understand that it's still strange and fright'nin'
For losers like I've been it's so hard to say
AUDREY SEYMOUR
Suddenly Seymour, Suddenly Seymour,
He purified me He purified you
Suddenly Seymour Suddenly Seymour
He showed me I can Yes, you can
Learn how to be more Learn how to be more
The girl that's inside me The girl that's inside you
With sweet understanding, With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding, With sweet understanding,
With sweet understanding, With sweet understanding,
Seymour's my man! Seymour's your man!
SUPPERTIME I
AUDREY II
He's got your number now
He knows just what you've done
You've got no place to hide,
You've got nowhere to run
He knows your life of crime
I think it's suppertime
Come on, come on,
Think about all those offers
Come on, come on,
Your future with Audrey
Come on, come on,
Ain't no time to turn squeamish
Come on, I swear on all my spores,
When he's gone the world will be yours, yours
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
Come on, come on. Come on, come on.
Come on, come on. It's suppertime. It's suppertime.
Come on, come on. Come on, come on.
Come on, come on. It's suppertime.
It's suppertime. Suppertime.
THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT
AGENT 1
Seymour Krelbourn, so finally we meet you
This is an occasion. Let's toast it. Up yours
Relax. Canape? ???? Let's talk turkey. Sign here
and we'll book you on lecturing tours
AGENT 2
Be a star. And we're sending photographers Thursday
So get the plant ready and wear a clean shirt
Just sign this release. Need a pen? Aren't you thrilled?
It's the cover of Life magazine. Dessert?
AGENT 3
I'm telling you son, it's a cinch to get ratings
The title is Marvin's. The concept is mine
The first weekly gardening show on a network
and you're gonna host it, you lucky kid, sign
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
They say the meek shall inherit
You know the book doesn't lie
It's not a question of merit
It's not demand and supply
They say the meek gonna get it
And you're a meek little guy
You know the meek are gonna get what's comin' to 'em by and by
SEYMOUR
My future's starting
I've got to let it
Stick with that plant, and gee, my bank account will thrive
What am I saying? No way! Forget it!
It's much too dangerous to keep that plant alive
I take these offers, that means more killing
Who knew success would come with messy, nasty strings?
I sign these contracts, that means I'm willing
to keep on doing bloody, awful, evil things
No! No! There's only so far you can bend
No! No! This nightmare must come to an end
No! No! You've got no alternative, Seymour old boy
Though it means you'll be broke again and unemployed,
It's the only solution. It can't be avoided
The vegetable must be destroyed
But then there's Audrey, lovely Audrey.
If life were tawdry and impov'rished as before,
She might not like me, she might not want me
Without my plant, she might not love me anymore
CRYSTAL, RONETTE, CHIFFON
They say the meek shall inherit SEYMOUR
Where do I sign?
You know the book doesn't lie
Right on the line?
It's not a question of merit
That'll do fine.
It's not demand and supply
This copy's mine?
You'll make a fortune, we swear it,
If on this fact you rely
Bye bye. So long.
You know the meek are gonna get what's comin' to 'em,
you know the meek are gonna get what's comin' to 'em,
you know the meek are gonna get what's comin' to 'em
by and by.
MEAN GREEN MOTHER FROM OUTER SPACE
AUDREY II
Better wait a minute
Ya better hold the phone
Better mind your manners
Better change your tone
Don't you threaten me, son
Ya gotta lot of gall
We gonna do things my way
Or we won't do things at all
Ya don't know what you're messin' with.
You got no idea
You don't know what you're lookin' at
When you're lookin' here
Ya don't know what you're up against,
No, no way, no how
You don't know what you're messin' with,
But I'm gonna tell you now!
Get this straight!
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space and I'm bad
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space
And it looks like you been had
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space,
So get off my back 'n get out my face,
'Cause I'm mean and green and I am bad
Wanna save your skin, boy?
You wanna save your hide?
You wanna see tomorrow?
You better step aside
Better take a tip, boy
Want some good advice?
You better take it easy,
'Cause you're walkin' on thin ice
Ya don't know what you're dealin' with
No, you never did
Ya don't know what you're lookin' at,
But that's tough titty, kid!
The lion don't sleep tonight,
And if you pull his tail, he roars
Ya say, "That ain't fair?" Ya say, "That ain't nice?"
Ya know what I say?
"Up yours!"
Watch me now!
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space and I'm bad.
I'm just a mean green mother, a real disgrace,
And you've got me fightin' mad
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space,
Gonna trash your ass,
Gonna rock this place,
'Cause I'm mean and green and I am bad
Don't you talk to me about old King Kong
You think he's the worst, well, you're thinkin' wrong
Don't talk to me about Frankenstein
He got a temper, ha! He ain't got mine
You know I don't come from no black lagoon
I'm from past the stars and beyond the moon
You can keep The Thing, keep The It,
keep The Creature, they don't mean shit
I got one style, major moves
I got the stuff and I think that proves
You better move it out
Nature calls
You got the point?
I'm gonna bust your balls
Here it comes!
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space and I'm bad
I'm just a mean green mother, a real hard case
