Original Cast of Love in Hate Nation
Oh Well
[SUSANNAH]
Her hair black as a feather
Her black jacket of leather
So thick eye liner
No chick could be finer
I’m nervous that this stuff is on my mind
These thoughts are thoughts so dangerous to think
I can’t ignore, or leave ’em behind
Cuz when I stop thinkin’ 'bout her then my heart starts to sink
When she’s around it feels like sha la la
My brain says nah nah nah
But my heart says rah rah rah, hey!
A bop she bop becomes how I express
The notions I suppress
Emotions I dare not say
Even if I could
I do not think I would
Have the strength to tell
Cuz if I tell her what I feel
I don’t think that she could deal
So I’ll just remain here in my hell
Besides the world isn’t ready
For two girls going steady
I’ll just keep it to myself oh well
Oh well
[SHELIA]
Her hair she fixes daily
Her freaky ukulele
She sings to me and I think of birds
Soaring through the hallways
Casting shadows on the dirty floor
I was never one for flowery words
But I guess the way that I feel now I never felt before
When she’s around it feels like sha la la
My brain says nah nah nah
But my heart says rah rah rah, hey!
A bop she bop becomes how I express
The notions I suppress
Emotions I cannot say
And even if I could
I do not think I would
Have the guts to tell
Cuz if I tell her what’s inside, oh, I know she’s gonna hide
I’ll be left alone here in my hell
Besides the world isn’t ready
For two girls going steady
I’ll just keep it to myself oh well
[SUSANNAH]
I feel her there
[SHEILA]
I stop my stare
[BOTH]
Now my pulse is going
Boom-boom-boom-ksh
[SUSANNAH]
My mouth is dry
[SHEILA]
The tension's high
[BOTH]
My heart’s convulsing going
Boom-boom-boom-ksh
If she had a choice
I bet she’d use her voice
To say the things that
We must keep unsaid
[SUSANNAH]
Or is that all in my head?
[SHEILA]
I put it out of my head
[SUSANNAH]
No, she doesn't know
Woah
[SHEILA]
She doesn't know
Woah
[SUSANNAH & SHELIA]
I wish I could tell her
Sha la la la
La la la
La la la
The things I wanna tell her
Bop-she-bop, bop-she-bop, bop-she-bop
[BOTH]
Like
When she’s around it feels like sha la la
My brain says nah nah nah
But my heart says rah rah rah, hey!
A bop she bop becomes how I express
The notions I suppress
Emotions I should not say
I guess I could right now
But I would not know how
To begin to tell
I’ll ignore the nagging sting
And pretend it’s not a thing
I’ll keep quiet when I wanna yell
Oh I don’t know if I’m ready
For two girls going steady
I’ll just keep it to myself
[SUSANNAH & SHEILA]
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
Oh well
[BOTH]
Oh well, oh well
Sha la la
