Letter 4

BUSKER

Miss, I’m famous, my words have reached the papers

I hope you’re proud of me, in spite of my behaviour

I’m on thin ice, this isn’t how I planned it

the thin line between a stalker and romantic


ENSEMBLE

Dear Miss,

This ones to your home address,

Now you know I’m serious,

I don’t like us playing games,

And I’ve seen you lock the chains

You want to make your home secure

What are you so frightened for?

Come on, Miss, your time is up

Time to show you give a fuck

Assemblies on mental health

Why do you not want to help

How to cope with depression

This is how I learnt my lesson


BUSKER + TEACHER

Hey, Miss, I’m famous, my words have reached the papers

I hope you’re proud of me, in spite of my behaviour

I’m on thin ice, this isn’t how I planned it

the thin line between a stalker and romantic


ENSEMBLE

It’s just me and my father

The teachers are suspicious

I’m causing too much drama

I’m acting too seditious

Whispers in the corridor

Rumours in the staff room

I think I should say sorry more

stop the haters laughing


I can’t believe I’m famous because

my love’s contagious

exams are done, stop mocking

detention won’t be stopping me


BUSKER

Hey, Miss, I’m famous, my words have reached the papers

I hope you’re proud of me, in spite of my behaviour


TEACHER

You know what, Miss, I’ve been reading again,

You’re a naughty girl under the covers, in my head

And yeah I finished Othello, it’s not quite how I said

Sorry for the spoiler, but they both end up dead


Passion turned from love to lust

Rumours that we come to trust

Don’t have any truth in them

Didn’t find the proof and then

Challenged his fate all alone

Takes her life then gives his own,

These two met a gory end

How then will our story end


BUSKER

Hey, Miss, I’m famous, my words have reached the papers

I hope you’re proud of me, in spite of my behaviour

I’m on thin ice, this isn’t how I planned it

the thin line between a stalker and romantic
