Naughty (from Matilda the Musical) Lyrics

Naughty (from Matilda the Musical) - Guy Dearden

...

Jack and jill,

Went up the hill,

To fetch a pail of water,

So they say,

The subsequent fall was inevitable,

They never stood a chance,

They were written that way,

Innocent victims of their story.

Like Romeo and Juliet,

T'was written in the stars,

Before they even met,

That love and fate,

And a touch of stupidity,

Would rob them of,

Their hope of living happily,

The endings are often a little bit gory,

I wonder why they didn't just,

Change their story,

We're told we have to do,

What we're told but surely,

Sometimes you have to be,

A little bit NAUGHTY!

Just because you find,

That life's not fair it,

Doesn't mean that you just have to grin,

And bear it,

If you always take it on the chin,

And wear it,

Nothing will change,

Even if you're little,

You can do a lot,

You mustn't let a little thing like,

Little stop you,

If you sit around,

And let them get on top you,

You might as well be saying,

You think that it's okay,

And that's not right.

(Sorry, Idk this part, and I've never heard it in the song at all)

Just because you find,

That life's not fair it,

Doesn't mean that you just have to grin,

And bear it,

If you always take it on the chin,

And wear it,

Nothing will change,

Even if you're little,

You can do a lot,

You mustn't let a little thing like,

Little stop you,

If you sit around,

And let them get on top you,

You might as well be saying,

You think that it's okay,

And that's not right,

And if it's not right,

You have to put it right.

In the slip of a bolt,

There's a tiny revolt,

The seed of a war,

In the creak of a floorboard,

A storm can begin,

With the flap of a wing,

The tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting,

Every day,

Starts with a tick of a clock,

All escapes,

Starts with a click of a lock,

If you're stuck in your story,

And want to get out,

You don't have to cry,

You don't have to shout.

Cos if you're little,

You can do a lot,

You mustn't little thing like,

Little stop you,

If you sit around,

And let them get on top you,

Nothing will change.

Just because you find,

That life's not fair it,

Doesn't mean that you just have to grin,

And bear it,

If you always take it on the chin,

And wear it,

You might as well be saying,

You think that it's okay,

And that's not right,

And if it's not right,

You have to put it right.

But nobody else,

Is gonna put it right for me,

Nobody but me,

Is gonna change my story,

Sometimes you have to be,

A little bit NAUGHTY!
