Ruth: Since I was a lassie,
Just a sweet young thing,
All I truly longed to do
Was make up songs to sing
Sure my voice was rotten
And had a pity twang
But I had dreams, and in my dreams
This is what I sang
Listen up, all you goons
Listen up and hear my tunes
Every line, boys, is mine
So listen up
How I yearned to sing it
Still I was afraid
Guess I feared
They call me weird
And mocked the songs I made
So I shut my PIE HOLE
And hid my work away
Rapunzel: But you had dreams
Ruth: And in my dreams
This is what I played
Listen up, if you please
Listen to my melodies
Rapunzel: Folks she wrote
Every note
Both: So listen up
Ruth: I kept my song a secret
But carved it on this club
Waiting till the perfect moment came
At last I worked the nerve up
And stood before the pub
I let one note
Come through my throat
And then I died of shame
And now I haunt this tavern
Suffering for my art
Years and years
Of doubts and fears
Rapunzel: It's time to heed your heart
Ruth: I can end this curse now
If I can end the song
Vladimir: Like in your dreams
Ruth: But in my dreams
You ALL must sing along
Listen up, all you thugs
Lift your voices and your mugs
Don't be shy,
Let it fly!
Thugs: Listen up
Big Nose: Listen up
Attila: Listen here
Foot: Raise the roof
Shorty: And rock the house!
Thugs: Make it loud,
Sing it proud, listen...
Ruth: WAIT!
Captain: Listen up, listen close
You're disgusting, old and gross!
But your song
Is quite strong
Listen up
All: Listen up, listen up
Everybody raise your cup
Here's to Ruth,
That's the truth
Listen up
Ruth: Listen up
All: Listen up
Ruth: Listen up
All: Listen up
