Original Broadway Cast of Groundhog Day
Nobody Cares
[GUS]
I wake up hungover, I go to bed smashed
Like an alcoholic hamster
On one of them little wheely things
Every evening, the same
Every morning, the pain
I start drinking at ten
And by noon I'm not feeling things
And nobody cares what I'm talking about
[RALPH]
Oh, shit, I just gone thrown up in my mouth
[GUS]
Just swallow it, man
Just swallow it
Your opinions or your vomit
Either way, they don't want it[GUS]
And I think I had
A point there
But the point is, it
Don't matter cos it's
Pointless having
Points anyway
Cos
Nobody cares what I say
Nobody cares what I do
What's the point of bothering
If no one else is bothered?
I was born in this town
And I'm gonna die here too[RALPH]
What's your
Point?
What is your
Pointless having
Points anyway
Nobody cares what I say
Nobody cares what I do
No one else is bothered
Born in this town
And I'm gonna die here too[GUS & RALPH]
I wake with a headache
I take a piss
I often miss
I often get a little bit on the floor
I eat a piece of toast
That I found toasted
In the toaster
Then I goes-ta
Get my jacket by the rack by the back door
And then I get into my truck and drive a block
To Ralphie's shop, it's always shut
I pick him up and drive us up
To Running Rock and shoot some cans
And crack some cans and shoot the breeze about
The weather or a sports team or a car
And after that, the bar
Nobody cares what I say
Nobody cares what I do
[GUS]
What's the point of bothering
[GUS & RALPH]
If no one else is bothered?
I was born in this town
And I'm gonna die here too
[GUS, RALPH & PHIL]
I wake with a headache I take a piss
I often miss I often get a little bit on the floor
I sometimes try to clean the mess
I makes from my mistakes
But for who's sake am I making all this effing effort for?
I wake up each
[GUS, RALPH, PHIL & COMPANY]
Morning to the same damn day
There seems to be jack shit that
I can do or say
I got no voice, I got no vote, I got no way
To change
A God damn thing
[GUS]
I think that's the pigs!
[PHIL]
Who gives a fig?
[GUS, RALPH, PHIL & COMPANY]
Nobody cares what I do
Nobody cares if I'm alive
Utterly uninfluential
No regrets and no potential
Every turn inconsequential
[PHIL]
Yee-ha, let's drive![GUS, RALPH & PHIL]
Nobody cares what I say
Nobody cares about my life[TOWNSPEOPLE]
Nobody cares what I say
Nobody gives a flyin' f–[GUS, RALPH, PHIL & COMPANY]
Utterly un-instrumental
No insurance, no intent
[RALPH]
Well actually, I've got dental
[GUS]
Ok, well that's nice
[TOWNSPEOPLE]
And I'm not sure what the point is
But the point is, it don't matter
Point is it don't matter
Cos
[GUS, RALPH, PHIL & COMPANY]
Nobody cares what I do
Nobody cares if I'm alive
Utterly uninfluential
No regrets and no potential
Every turn inconsequential
[TOWNSPEOPLE]
And I'm not sure what the point is
But the point is, it don't matter
Not sure what the point is
Point is it don't matter, cos[GUS, RALPH & PHIL]
Nobody cares what I do
Nobody cares about my life[TOWNSPEOPLE]
Nobody cares what I do
Nobody gives a flyin' f–[GUS, RALPH, PHIL & COMPANY]
Utterly uninfluential
No regrets and no potential
Every turn inconsequential
[PHIL]
Utterly repercussion-free!
[GUS]
Though, arguably, not for that tree...
[RALPH]
I think I pooped my dungaree
[COMPANY]
No consequence at all
