Zombie Farm Act 1 Part 4

"Zombie Farm: A New Musical" is a quirky new musical about a naive young milkmaid and her journey to find a place where she belongs. Throw in a few vegetable-men, a gaggle of wayward, wind-chasing gypsies, and the pyromaniac children of the greatest Tobacco Tycoon this side of the south, "Zombie" is sure to make you laugh and warm your heart.

"Zombie Farm" is a student-run, student-created musical written by Tyler Dean and Mike Tooman. It was staged by Basement Arts in the 2011 fall semester at the University of Michigan. The production was directed by Taylor Norton. Music direction by Ashley Park. Band: Adam Quinn, Sango Tajima, Brian Carrick, and Joseph Russo.

"THE LONELY ONE"

MANNY
Look around you, wayward boy.
Look at your life,
Look at your choices.
How did you wind up here?
You thought your problems would just disappear?

You've got a pack on your back
And nothin' to lose
'Cause when you're on a new track
Your life is yours to choose.

I'll choose to spend it here.
Yeah, I think you're gonna make me love it here.

You know, it ain't easy
You know, it ain't no fun
Bein' the lonely one
Time and time again.

And it don't matter
How hard I try,
I'm still the lonely guy
In the end.

Look around you, quiet boy
Now is your time,
Now is your moment.
Here you're due to shine.
The folks round here will let you speak your mind.

You've got a lot to say,
It's on the tip of your tongue
But when they asked your name
You were suddenly dumb!

Are you really shy?
Or is it 'cause the milkmaid caught your eye?

[TAP BREAK]

You know, it ain't easy
You know, it ain't no fun
Bein' the lonely one
Time and time again.

And it don't matter
How hard I try,
I'm still the lonely guy
In the end.

Here's to another try,
I know that I
Can win this one.
And no longer be the lonely one.
