kinda starts out sounding like pocahontas... then jumps into old time-y music. I like how happy she is about death but still, it takes away from her character. She was always so gloom and a bit slow to speak. This puts her off as being bright and cheery, even if its about death, which she did love.... but it didn't turn her into cotton candy.
Such a waste of obviously lyric talents. These songwriters clearly have a knack for old-time interesting rhymes and melody and harmony, but...the words to this song, well, doesn't it strike anyone else as too sunny and blunt a way for Morticia to be expressing herself? Maybe I'm alone, but I think she'd be more oblique. She'd NEVER say something like "Get it?" with regard to a joke.
I seriously love this musical. I saw it the other night and all throughout it I had goosebumps. When I saw this, it reminded me why I love theater....Gosh<3!!!!!
@MCRroxMCR I loved it too! I don't understand why it got such bad reviews. Maybe I'd think it weren't so good if I had other shows to compare it to (it was my first Broadway show) but I thought it was funny and I love the soundtrack.
Death is just around the corner, coming after me! Get It? Coroner! Death is just around the coroner! hahaha when she said this in the show, I died laughing lol :D
i sang this song in my class.... my teacher got so freaked out he tried to send me to our counsillor... then he remembered my school is the only one without a councillor.... i love my school.... he just sent me out for a while :) and asked me about the song.... go addams family!!!
@proud2beBookWorm OMG, that similar thing happened to me. I asked my teacher if I could read a favorite poem of mine (The Gashlycrumb Tinies by Edward Gorey. Look it up!) and she thought I wrote it... let's just say it's pretty dark and she got a little bit scared... She told me that if I wanted to express my depressing side that I should do it a better way than killing off children... alphabetically!
I wanna die to this song, its so classy.

Love this song (and the entire show!)! And on a related topic..What did one morgue wall say to the other morgue wall? "Meet you at the Coroner!" :)

"when I'm feeling uninspired, or I need a little spree, I'm reborn knowing death is just around the corner coming after me."
Thanks for the advice, Morticia! This should get me through exam week ;)
