A Roadkill Opera Releases Lyrics to “Different Things”

Different Things

Debby
Oh, what if they are not a hit?
What will happen to them?
I see them being torn apart,
yes, I see them being torn apart.

So, granted, I don’t know them all that well.
And they seem to want different things.

They seem to want different things.
They seem to want different things.

Ah, granted, I don’t know them well,
but I think they want diff’rent things.

Eddie will be tormented
as he pursues acting.

Eddie will, will be tormented,
I see, poor boy,
I see that he will be tormented.

Sure, my hope for him is
that he will be contented.
But I fear instead that
he will be tormented.

I hope he’ll be contented
but I fear for him, I do. Ah . . .
Acting is a tough racket.
Acting is a tough racket
and I fear, I fear for him, oh,
oh, I sure fear for him.

Yes, acting, such a racket.
Poor Eddie, I see he’ll be tormented
as he pursues his craft.
Oh, ah …

He’ll be tormented pursuing his craft.
He’ll be pursuing his craft,
so I fear for him, I fear for him,
I fear for him, I fear for him.
