Overture/Going Through The Motions

[Overture]

Buffy:
Every single night, the same arrangement
I go out and fight the fight.
Still I always feel this strange estrangement--
Nothing here is real, nothing here is right.
I've been making shows of trading blows
Just hoping no one knows
That I've been going through the motions,
Walking through the part.
Nothing seems to penetrate my
Heart!

I was always brave and kind of righteous
Now I find I'm wavering.
Crawl out of your grave, your finest fight
Just doesn't mean a thing.

Vampire:
She ain't got that swing.

Buffy:
Thanks for noticing.

Vampire 1, Vampire 2, Demon:
She is pretty well
With fiends from Hell
But lately we can tell


Vampire 1, Vampire 2:
That she's just going through the motions


Demon:
Going through the motions


Vampire 1, Vampire 2:
Faking it somehow

(Buffy stabs demon with sword)


Demon: She's not even half the girl she--ow...


Buffy:
Will I stay this way forever?
Sleepwalk through my life's endeavor?
(She cuts a tied up man out of the rope that held him)


Handsome guy:
How can I repay--?


Buffy:
Whatever. I don't wanna be...
Going through the motions
Losing all my drive.
I can't even see
If this is really me
And I just wanna be
Alive!






I've Got A Theory/Bunnies/If We're Together



Giles:
I've got a theory
That it's a demon!
A dancing demon!
No, something isn't right there.


Willow:
I've got a theory
Some kid is dreamin'
And we're all stuck inside his wacky Broadway nightmare.

Xander:
I've got a theory
We should work this out.


Anya, Willow, Tara, Xander:
It's getting eerie.
What this cheery
Singing all about?

Xander:
I've got a theory
It could be witches
(Tara and Willow glare)
Which is ridiculous 'cause witches they were persecuted Wicca good and love the Earth and woman power and I'll be over here.


Anya:
I've got a theory
It could be bunnies.
(Silence--everyone stares)


Tara: I've got a th--
(Rock music)

Anya: Bunnies aren't just cute
Like everybody supposes!
They've got them hoppy legs
And twitchy little noses.
And what's with all the carrots?
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?!
Bunnies!
Bunnies! It must be
Bunnies!!!
(Silence, then back to bookish music...)

Anya:
Or maybe midgets.

Willow:
I've got a theory We should work this fast.

Willow, Giles:
Because it clearly
Could get serious
Before it's past.

Buffy:
I've got a theory...
(Ballad-type music)

Buffy:
It doesn't matter...
What can't we face if we're together?
What's in this place that we can't weather?
Apocalypse...
We've all been there.
The same old trips
Why should we care?

All except Giles:
What can't we do once we get in it?
We'll work it through within a minute.

All:

We have to try
We'll pay the price
It's do or die

Buffy:
Hey, I've died twice.

All except Giles
What can't we face if we're together?

Giles:
What can't we face?

All except Giles:
What's in this place that we can't weather?

Giles:
If we're together.

All:
There's nothing we can't face.

Anya:
Except for bunnies...


The Mustard


Mustard Guy: They got...the mustard...out!
Random Choir of Laundromat-Goers: They got the mustard....out!


Under Your Spell


Tara: I lived my life in shadow
Never the sun on my face
It didn't seem so sad, though,
I figured that was my place.
Now I'm bathed in light
Something just isn't right...

I'm under your spell
How else could it be?
Anyone would notice me.
It's magic, I can tell
How you've set me free
Brought me out so easily.

I saw a world enchanted
Spirits and charms in the air
I always took for granted
I was the only one there
But your power's shone
Brighter than any I've known

I'm under your spell
Nothing I can do
You just took my soul with you
You worked your charm so well
Finally I knew
Everything I dreamed was true
You make me
Believe

The moon to the tide,
I can feel you inside

I'm under your spell
Surging like the sea
Pulled to you so helplessly
I break with every swell
Lost in ecstacy
Spread beneath my Willow tree
You make me
Complete

You make me complete
You make me complete
You make me complete


I'll Never Tell



Anya:
This is the man
That I plan
To entangle - Isn't he fine?
My claim to fame
Was to maim
And to mangle - Vengeance was mine!
But I'm out of the biz,
The name I've made I'll trade for his.
The only trouble is...
I'll never tell.

Xander:
She is the one
She's such wonderful fun
Such passion and grace.
Warm in the night
When I'm right
In her tight--embrace
Tight embrace
I'll never let her go,
The love we've known can only grow.
There's just one thing that--no.
I'll never tell.

Both:
'Cause there's nothing to tell.

Anya:
He snores.

Xander:
She wheezes.

Anya:
Say 'housework' and he freezes.

Xander:
She eats these skeezy cheeses that I can't describe.

Anya:
I talk, he breezes.

Xander:
She doesn't know what 'please' is.

Anya:
His penis got diseases from a Chumash tribe.

Both:
The vibe...
Gets kind of scary...

Xander:
Like she think's I'm ordinary

Anya:
Like it's only temporary

Xander:
Like her toes are kind of hairy

Both:
But it's all very well
'Cause God knows I'll never tell.


Anya:
When things get rough he
Just hides behind his Buffy
Now look, he's getting huffy
'Cause he knows that I know

Xander:
She's clings
She's needy
She's also really greedy.
She never--

Anya:
His eyes are beady!

Xander: This is my verse, hello!
She--

Anya: Look at me, I'm dancing crazy!

Both:
You know...

Xander:
You're quite the charmer.

Anya:
My knight in armor.

Xander:
You're the cutest of the Scoobies
With your lips as red as rubies
And your firm yet supple--tight embrace!


Anya: He's swell.

Xander:
She's sweller.

Anya:
He'll always be my feller.

Xander:
That's why I'll never tell her
That I'm petrifed.

Anya:
I've read this tale
There's wedding then betrayal
I know there'll come the day I'll
Want to run and hide

Both:
I lied
I said it's easy
I've tried
But there's these fears I can't quell.

Xander:
Is she looking for a pot of gold?

Anya:
Will I look good when I've gotten old?

Xander:
Will our lives become too stressful
If I'm never that successful?

Anya:
When I get so old and wrinkly
That I look like David Brinkley

Xander:
Am I crazy?

Anya:
Am I dreamin'?

Xander:
Am I marrying a demon?

Both:
We could really raise the beam in
Making marriage a hell
So thank God I'll never tell
I swear that I'll never tell.

Xander:
My lips are sealed.

Anya:
I take the fifth.

Xander:
Nothing to see, move it along.

Both:
I'll never--
Tell!



There will be more lyrics soon...
