"Fifty Years Later" lyrics
Christopher Sieber, Megan Hilty & Jennifer Simard Lyrics
(from "Death Becomes Her (Original Broadway Cast Recording)" soundtrack)
[ERNEST:]
When I fell, I broke my coccyx
And they had to fuse my spine
I spent a year in rehab
In emotional decline
And then an angel came to me
And nursed me back to life
Patient and forgiving
The reason I'm still living
She's my friend, my sweetheart, my wife
I love her
She's my person
Forever and always and true
[HELEN & MADELINE:]
Boo!
Screw you, that's my song (No, you don't get a happy ending)
You don't get my song, get out of here! (That's so unfair! Boo! Go, get out of here, old man!)
When I fell, I broke my coccyx
And they had to fuse my spine
I spent a year in rehab
In emotional decline
And then an angel came to me
And nursed me back to life
Patient and forgiving
The reason I'm still living
She's my friend, my sweetheart, my wife
I love her
She's my person
Forever and always and true
[HELEN & MADELINE:]
Boo!
Screw you, that's my song (No, you don't get a happy ending)
You don't get my song, get out of here! (That's so unfair! Boo! Go, get out of here, old man!)
