"Every Story's Got A Lesson" lyrics
Jacob Richmond, Tiffany Tatreau, Lillian Castillo, Scott Redmond, Emily Rohm, Kholby Wardell & Ride the Cyclone World Premiere Cast Recording Ensemble Lyrics
(from "Ride The Cyclone: The Musical (World Premiere Cast Recording)" soundtrack)
[Ocean:]
Noel didn't even talk about anything real. It was just a song about him wanting to be a sex worker in the old-fashioned days! what is even the moral? what does it teach you? what's the lesson?
[Karnak:]
Not every story has a lesson, Ocean
[Ocean:]
[Like her entire worldview is being crushed]
Nooo...
[Adamant, slightly hysterical]
Every story has a lesson!
Every story...
Every story's got a lesson
A simple moral to be told
Although a tale may twist and turn...
[Choir (underneath previous line):]
[Whistling]
There's always something you can learn
[Ocean:]
A nugget of wisdom, solid gold!
[Choir:]
Solid gold!
[Karnak:]
Ah yes, perhaps every story does have lesson
Like Pompeii: don't live next to an active volcano
[Slide-whistle, boing]
Moving forward, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to raise it up for the best Ukrainian rapper in northeastern Saskatchewan, Mischa Bachinski: the angriest boy in town
P.S. the second movement of this section won't make a lick of sense until you see it live. and that, my friends, is a masterclass in how to upsell
