Sweet Child (Reprise)
[FLOTSAM, spoken]
She may have legs, but her love affair doesn't!
[JESTAM, spoken]
I didn't feel any sparks, did you?
[FLOTSAM, spoken]
No electricity whatsoever!
[JESTAM, spoken]
What's the poor sweet child to do?
[FLOTSAM]
It's such a shame
[JETSAM]
It's such a crime
[FL
OTSAM]To be so close
[JETSAM]
And yet so far
[FLOTSAM]
So overdue
[JETSAM]
Yet underpar
[FLOTSAM]
So out of time
[JETSAM]
It's too sublime
[BOTH]
Sweet Child!
JETSAM
Poor child
[FLOTSAM]
And now her second sun has set!
JETSAM
Dear child!
[FLOTSAM]
Lost child!
[JETSAM]
There's still some hope-
[FLOTSAM]
Ya wanna bet?
[JETSAM]
No
[FLOTSAM]
One more day to get her lovepeck
[JETSAM]
One more day to snag her man
[BOTH]
And then the squid will hit the fan
[FLOTSAM, spoken]
She'll be disgraced
[JESTAM, spoken]
Ugh Debased
[FLOTSAM]
Reviled
[BOTH]
Poor child...!
