YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

Alright because I’m an obsessive Howard Ashman fan (and it seems a bit of a masochist) I’ve taken the time to decode the lyrics and post them for anyone who’s interested. Because I did this entirely by ear I can’t say that it is wholly accurate. However I do feel that at least 99% of it is correct.

You didn’t jump up and down enough when Sandra won

And you didn’t even cry when you won yourself.

The Judges are looking for lots of emotion, give ’em emotion.

Well get rid of those dumb little bows that you where.

Line your eyes with a little more white.

And we’ll sneak just a hint of gold spray in your hair so it shines when it catches the light

Tomorrow Night

CONTESTANTS

Well here it goes, the tension.

How’s my coolness draining? How’s my ounces?

This is the part where it starts to get strange here.

I’m so strung out, I’m so done in

I hope it won’t effect my skin.

Don’t think I can’t feel, cause I feel a real change here.

CONTESTANTS

What do they want from me and how can I be it?

Or if I am it can I get them to see it?

I need a sedative.

My fingers shake, my brains are stiff

I’ve only got so much to give

How will I live until tomorrow night?

I sense a feeling in this place

It’s making me a basket case.

The stakes are too high, they unnerve and unglue me.

I can’t cool off, I can’t relax

Do kids my age have heart attacks?

I’m too young to die, why’s it happening to me?

CONTESTANTS

What do they want from me?

I’ll do it, I swear it.

Just say what color ’do they like

And I’ll wear it.

CONTESTANTS

Look, there’s a window sill, I think I’ll jump

I won’t, I will.

I bet there’s nothing left to kill.

My heart be still until tomorrow night.

COOKIE WILSON I can’t believe she won Cause when it’s said and done You know she really doesn’t deserve it. I can’t believe this shit. That guacamole bit. And people stood there watching her serve it. I can’t believe it worked. The way she grins and smirks And then she walks away with the prize. I’m seein’ red right now. I’m figure how To cut that Spanish kid down to size tomorrow.

All night the axe descends.

Will I get through? Well that depends.

I can’t get to sleep. I keep tossing and turning.

CONTESTANTS

I keep reviewing in my head

The things I did, the things I said.

I wish I knew how many points am I earning.

Zefferwindow 4 months ago

CONTESTANTS What do they want from me, I’ll do it. I wanna. Who do they want to see, Snow White or Madonna? How well have I done so far? I wish I looked like Terry Garr I wonder what my chances are. It’s so bizarre, until tomorrow night. Until tomorrow night. Until tomorrow night. Until tomorrow.

CONTESTANTS It’s bad and a getting worse. I need a shrink. I need a nurse. My heads gonna blow and my tummy convulses. My breathe is gone, my temples ache I’m verging on a nervous break I don’t want to know what the rate of my pulse is. What do they want to see a cute neurosurgeon? A saint? A PHD? An athlete? A Virgin? A giving living doll Whose not too short and not to tall I’ve got to keep my wits until I beat it all. Until tomorrow night.

Listen close Robin, be smart Rob, you’ve got something they see.

I just know Rob, you can win Rob, if you listen to me?

I’ve got so much to teach

’Bout your walk and your speech and your gown.

And your make-up, your hair

Sit right there got to get it all down

For Tomorrow Night.

CONTESTEANTS

How will I live until tomorrow comes?

Soon as I turn out the light visions of blazing auditoriums

How will I get through the night?

BIG BOB FREELANDER Okay Bob don’t overreact Don’t go and make too much of it Stress is a sickness in these situations We all may have a touch of it. What’s with Brenda? what’s going on? Don’t go and make too much of it. Stress is a sickness in these situations We all may have a touch of it. But she’s so high strung. I guess maybe she’ll relax tomorrow Maybe she’ll relax tomorrow (Repeat 7 Times)

See? I’m doing much better now.

And it’s funny how

I feel wide awake.

I feel tense but young.

How to wait until tomorrow (Repeat 7 Times)

Okay, take that off. Okay put this on.

My brain is broke and can’t be fixed

What do they want from me? God knows I’ve been trying.

They say “Relax and be yourself” but they’re lying.

Zefferwindow 4 months ago

CONTESTANTS So I’m in mortal fear. I cannot take this atmosphere. I need a joint. I need a beer. Please someone get me out of here. It’s all to much. It’s all mixed up. I’ve lost my equilibrium. I feel so fat. I feel so dumb. I need to know the end will come in sight. It will tomorrow night. Oh god, it will, alright? Tomorrow Night. Tomorrow Night. Tomorrow Night. Tomorrow Night. Tomorrow - God! Tomorrow Night!

It's a crying shame this show is nearly obscure, it's totally adorable! In an age where equally cute shows like "Hairspray" have large amounts of fans these days, they should really revive this. Who's with me?

@Pooleman96 it's soooo worth it...i think my friend who is a director is thinking of doing this at the local highschool...she said it would be her 4th time doing it...it's sad no one knows this show...they certainly should! the music is great and the plot is simple...it's just CUTE!
