Matilda the Musical Original Cast
This Little Girl
Stop being pathetic, Jenny
Stop pretending, Jenny
That you are going to march in there and give them a piece of your mind!

Leave it alone Jenny!
The more that you try
The more you'll just look like a fool!

This is not your problem
You've not got the spine
You are a teacher just go back to school!

But this little girl...
This miracle...
She seems not to know
That she's special at all

And what sort of teacher would I be
If I let this little girl fall through the cracks I can see
This little girl needs somebody strong
To fight by her side

Instead she's found me
Pathetic little me!
And another door closes
And Jenny's outside
