The Lyrics
This is going to be the title track of the third CD of my parodies, with songs from musicals.
NOW TO FACE THE MUSIC
The bills have arrived, now to face the music,
For they won’t get paid; I’ve not worked for years.
I can’t find a job, no-one ever wants me;
Whatever I try always ends in tears.
My man does his best as he goes door to door,
And the kids they have turned to crime.
While I spend the day with a glass in hand,
Well, it passes the time.
The fear that I have is that one day soon
What we have will soon go.
The car then the house;
It’s no wonder I’m feeling so low!
I’ll rip up these bills, as I’ll never pay them.
You’ve heard it before; it’s a sorry tale.
I’ll end up in court then my man will leave me.
And I’ll go to jail.
The fear that I have is that one day soon
What we have will soon go.
The car then the house;
It’s no wonder I’m feeling so low!
I’ll rip up these bills, as I’ll never pay them.
You’ve heard it before; it’s a sorry tale.
I’ve had it to here, now to face the music.
And I’ll go to jail.
The bills have arrived, now to face the music,
For they won’t get paid; I’ve not worked for years.
I can’t find a job, no-one ever wants me;
Whatever I try always ends in tears.
My man does his best as he goes door to door,
And the kids they have turned to crime.
While I spend the day with a glass in hand,
Well, it passes the time.
The fear that I have is that one day soon
What we have will soon go.
The car then the house;
It’s no wonder I’m feeling so low!
I’ll rip up these bills, as I’ll never pay them.
You’ve heard it before; it’s a sorry tale.
I’ll end up in court then my man will leave me.
And I’ll go to jail.
The fear that I have is that one day soon
What we have will soon go.
The car then the house;
It’s no wonder I’m feeling so low!
I’ll rip up these bills, as I’ll never pay them.
You’ve heard it before; it’s a sorry tale.
I’ve had it to here, now to face the music.
And I’ll go to jail.

Awesome. Congrats.
Well done. When everyone is dealing drugs crime won't pay anymore.
Excellent, though I will admit to being vaguely surprised this wasn't referencing a certain ex-president :-)
