Original Broadway Cast of Jagged Little Pill
Forgiven
[MARY JANE]
You know how us Catholic girls can be
I, I.....
We make up for so much time a little too late
I never forgot it, confusing as it was
No fun with no guilt feelings
The sinners, the saviors, the lover-less priests
I'll see you next Sunday
I sang Alleluia in the choir
[MARY JANE and Chorus]
Oh, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia...
[MARY JANE]
I confessed my darkest deeds
[MARY JANE and Chorus]
To an envious man
[MARY JANE with (Chorus)]
My brothers (no)
They never (no)
Went blind for what they did
But I may as well have (I)
In the name of (Oh)
The Father (Oh)
The Skeptic and the Son
I have one more (one more)
Stupid question (Sinner)
I have my reasons to be here (Witch)
I still have a thing or two to learn (Whore)
I still need something to cling to (ooh)
So I will (you will)
[MARY JANE and Chorus]
What I learned I rejected
[MARY JANE]
But I believe again
[MARY JANE and Chorus]
I will suffer the consequence
[MARY JANE]
Of this inquisition
[MARY JANE and Chorus]
If I jump in this fountain
[MARY JANE and (Chorus)]
Will I be forgiven (forgiven...)
[Chorus]
Ooh...
Ooh...
Ooh...
[MARY JANE]
We all had our reasons to be there
We all have a thing or two to learn
We all need something to cling to
So we did
[NICK and Chorus]
So we did... (so we did)
We all have delusions in our head
We all have our minds made up for us
We have to believe in something
[FRANKIE and (Chorus)]
So I will (so I will)
[ANDREW] [Chorus]
We all had our reasons to be there Ave Maria
[ANDREW AND BELLA]
We all had our pain to learn Ave Maria
[ANDREW, BELLA AND PHOENIX]
We all needed something to cling to Ave Maria
So we did
[Chorus and (MARY JANE)]
We all had our reasons to be here (So we did)
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
Amen
