Original Broadway Cast of Tootsie
I’m Alive
[JULIE NICHOLS]
On my back
In my bed
It was dark
I was dead
Couldn't move
Couldn’t walk
Couldn't breathe
And I sure couldn't talk
No more dusk
No more dawn
This was it
I was gone (No!)
But then low
There’s a light
And surprise, surprise
I open my eyes
I'm alive
I'm alive
Good god almighty
I'm alive
Don't hold your nose
I won't decompose
I smell like a rose
I'm alive
My world (She's alive)
Was a dud (She’s alive)
Lots of death (She’s alive)
Lots of blood (Blood)
So my life (She's alive)
I would take (She’s Alive)
But now I'm thinking
It's a big mistake
I'm alive
I’m alive
Hallelujah
I'm alive
The birds and the bees
And the sun and the trees
And the wine and the cheese
[ENSEMBLE]
She's alive, she's alive
She was almost dead
But she's alive (Alive)
[JULIE NICHOLS]
What can I say
I got carried away
But now's a new day
I'm alive
[RON CARLISLE]
Extenuated Movement, people
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Five, six, seven, eight
Fosset, fosset, fosset, fosset
Brain freeze!
The floor is lava
It's hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!
It's hot hot hot hot hot
Happy Bunny
Funny Bunny
Frightened Bunny
In the hole
Where's the bunny?
Where's the bunny?
He's got a fidget spinner, go!
Bye Felicia!
Take a selfie, be a hater, Lap Dance
Turn it out, reel 'em in
[JULIE NICHOLS]
I'm alive
I'm alive
I can't believe it (alive)
I'm alive (alive)
[MAX VAB HORN]
Here's the headline
She's gonna be mine
[JULIE NICHOLS]
I really dodged the bullet
All the plumbing's working
Thank god you didn't bury me
Because I'm alive
[ENSEMBLE]
Alive, alive, alive, alive
We can't overstate it
You're not cremated
It's really really
Great that you're
Alive
