Original Off-Broadway Lyrics
 [J.D.]

All is forgiven baby!

Come on, get dressed!

You’re my date to the pep rally tonight

You chucked me out like I was trash

For that you should be dead—

But! But! But!

Then it hit me like a flash

What if high school went away instead?

Those assholes are the key

They’re keeping you away from me

They made you blind, messed up your mind

But I can set you free!

You left me and I fell apart

I punched the wall and cried—

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Then I found you changed my heart

And set loose all that truthful shit inside

And so I built a bomb

Tonight our school is Vietnam

Let’s guarantee they’ll never see their senior prom!

I was meant to be yours

We were meant to be one

Don’t give up on me now

Finish what we’ve begun

I was meant to be yours

So when the high school gym goes boom with everyone inside—

Pchw! Pchw! Pchw!

In the rubble of their tomb

We’ll plant this note explaining why they died!

[J.D. & STUDENTS]

We, the students of Westerburg High will die

Our burnt bodies may finally get through to you

Your society churns out slaves and blanks, no thanks

Signed, the Students of Westerburg High

Goodbye

[J.D.]

We’ll watch the smoke poor out the doors

Bring marshmallows

We’ll make s’mores!

We can smile and cuddle while the fire roars!

I was meant to be yours

We were meant to be one

I can’t make it alone

Finish what we’ve begun

You were meant to be mine

I am all that you need

You carved open my heart

Can’t just leave me to bleed

Veronica! Open the—open the door, please

Veronica! Open the door

Veronica! Can we not fight anymore?

Please, can we not fight anymore?

Veronica, sure, you’re scared

I’ve been there, I can set you free

Veronica, don’t make me come in there

I’m gonna count to three!

One! Two! Fuck it!

Oh my God! No! Veronica!

Please don’t leave me alone

You were all I could trust

I can’t do this alone

[J.D. & STUDENTS]

Still I will if I must!

'''[MRS. SAWYER]'''

Veronica?

I brought you a snack

Veronica?

AAAAAAHHHHH!
