In the Arms Lyrics by Terrence Mann

The Addams Family (Original Broadway Cast)

2010

MAL (spoken):
Something happened Alice. Something weird and wonderful.
(sung)
I hear a music I have never heard before
I feel the waves though I am nowhere near
The shore
In the arms of a squid
I touched my secret longing
All embraced as I faced
A world both warm and new
In the charms of a squid
I lost my inhibitions
And found my love
For you
And in the arms
Of a squid
All tentacled and squishy
Rearranged
I was changed
By something sort of fishy
Then at once
As I hugged
A thousand cups of suction
I found my love for you
Who've'd of guessed that I'd discover God
Cuddling with a two-ton cephalopod!
ALICE:
In the arms of a squid
MAL:
I was saved
And born anew
ALICE:
She saw your soul
MAL:
She saw my soul
ALICE:
She took control
MAL:
She took control
And finally I can stomach sushi
But, my dear
ALICE:
Oh Mal-
MAL:
Now it's clear
ALICE:
Big Mal
BOTH:
My love for you is endless
MAL:
In the arms
ALICE:
In the arms
MAL:
Of a squid
ALICE:
Of a squid
MAL:
I was dared
ALICE:
You were dared
MAL:
And I did!
ALICE:
God, you did!
BOTH:
And I found my love for you!
