Original London Cast of Matilda
Revolting Children
[BRUCE]
Woah
Never again will she get the best of me
Never again will she take away my freedom
And we won't forget the day we fought
[CHILDREN]
For the right to be a little bit naughty!
Never again
[BRUCE]
Will the Chokey door slam!
[CHILDREN]
Never again
[BRUCE]
Will I be bullied, and
[CHILDREN]
Never again
[BRUCE]
Will I doubt it when
[ALL CHILDREN]
My mummy says I'm a miracle
Never again!
Never again will we live behind bars
Never again now that we know
We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
And we'll have the Trunchbull vaulting
We're revolting!
We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
And we'll have the Trunchbull vaulting
We're revolting!
[TOMMY]
We will become a screaming horde!
[LAVENDER]
Take out your hockey stick, and use it as a sword!
[ERIC]
Never again will we be ignored
[AMANDA]
We'll find out where the chalk is stored
[NIGEL]
And draw rude pictures on the board!
[HORTENSIA]
It's not insulting
[ALL CHILDREN]
We're revolting!
We can S-P-L how we like
If enough of us are wrong, wrong is right
Every word N-O-R-T-Y
'Cause we're a little bit naughty!
You say we oughta stay inside the line
But if we disobey at the same time
There is nothing that the Trunchbull can do
[ERIC]
She can take her hammer and S-H-U
[ALL CHILDREN]
You didn't think you could push us too far
But there's no going back now
We are R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N
[BRUCE]
C'mon
[CHILDREN]
We'll S-I-N-G
U-S-I-N-G
[BRUCE]
(Yeah)
[CHILDREN]
We'll be R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N-G
[ALL CHILDREN]
It is 2-L-8-4-U
We are revolting!
We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
It is 2-L-8-4-U
[CHILDREN, (BRUCE)]
We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs (whoa)
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done (down, down, down, down)
It is 2-L-8-4-U
We are revolting!
