[MARY]
All right, now you know
Life is crummy
Well, now you know

I mean, big surprise
People love you and tell you lies
Bricks can tumble from clear blue skies
Put your dimple down
Now you know

So life lays you low
Learn to live with it
Now you know

It's called flowers wilt
It's called apples rot
It's called thieves get rich snd saints get shot
It's called God don't answer prayers a lot
Okay, now you know

Okay, now you know
Now forget it—
Don't fall apart at the seams
It's called letting go your illusions
And don't confuse them with dreams
If the going's slow
Don't regret it
And don't let's go to extremes

It's called what's your choice?
It's called count to ten
It's called burn your bridges, start again
You should burn them every now and then
Or you'll never grow!

Because now you grow
That's the killer is
Now you grow

You're right, nothing's fair and it's all a plot
And tomorrow doesn't look too hot
Well you better look at what you got
And enjoy the show
Okay, now you know
RIght?

[ENSEMBLE]
Right
Right
Wrong
[MARY]
Just go with the flow
Then forget it—
Don't fall apart at the seams
It's called letting go your illusions
And don't confuse them with dreams

If the going's slow
Don't regret it
And don't let's go to extremes

I mean, socks have holes
I mean, roads have bumps
They make meatheads champs
And nice guys chumps
I mean, even cream of wheat has lumps
Gotta let it go

[ENSEMBLE]
Let it go

[MARY]
Because now you grow
That's the killer is
Now you grow
[ENSEMBLE]
Now you grow

[MARY]
You're right, nothing's fair
And it's all a plot
And tomorrow doesn't look too hot
Right, you better look at what you got
Over here, hello?

[ENSEMBLE]
Over here, hello?

[MARY]
All right, now you know

[ENSEMBLE]
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
Right!
