Dead Girl Walking (Reprise)

Lyrics

[VERONICA] I wanted someone strong who could protect me I let his anger fester and infect me His solution is a lie, no one here deserves to die Except for me and the monster I created Yeah, yeah [VERONICA, STUDENTS] Heads up, J.D., I'm a dead girl walkin' Hey yo, Westerberg Can't hide from me, I'm a dead girl walkin' Hey yo, Westerberg And there's your final bell (Ah) It's one more dance and then farewell (Ah) Cheek to cheek in hell with a dead girl walkin' [H. MCNAMARA, STUDENTS] Woah-oh-oh Come on, Westerberg Woah-oh-oh Here we go, here we go now [MS. FLEMING, spoken] Veronica! Jason Dean told me you just committed suicide [VERONICA, spoken] Yeah? Well, he's wrong about a lot of things [MS. FLEMING, spoken] Oh, I threw together a lovely tribute Especially considering the short notice [VERONICA, spoken] Ms. Fleming, what's under the gym? [MS. FLEMING, spoken] The boiler room [VERONICA, spoken] That's it [MS. FLEMING, spoken] Veronica, what's going on? [VERONICA, STUDENTS] Got no time to talk, I'm a dead girl walkin' (Hey yo, Westerberg) [STUDENTS] Hey yo, Westerberg, tell me, what's that sound? Here comes Westerberg Comin' to put you in the ground Go, go, Westerberg, give a great big yell Westerberg will knock you out And send you straight to hell [VERONICA, spoken] Step away from the bomb [J.D. laughs] [J.D., spoken] This little thing? Hardly call this a bomb This is just to trigger the packs of thermals upstairs in the gym Those are bombs People are gonna see the ashes of Westerberg High School and they're gonna think, "There's a school that self-destructed not because society doesn't care, but because that school was society" The only place that Heathers and Marthas can get along is in Heaven [VERONICA] I wish your mom had been a little stronger I wish she'd stayed around a little longer I wish your dad were good I wish grown-ups understood I wish we'd met before they convinced you life is war I wish you'd come with me [J.D., spoken] I wish I had more TNT [VERONICA & J.D. erupt into a handfight over J.D.'s gun] [STUDENTS] Ahh Hey yo, Westerberg, tell me, what's that sound? Here comes Westerberg Comin' to put you in the ground Go, go, Westerberg, give a great big yell Westerberg will knock you out And send you straight to— [A gunshot is fired]
