Confession Lyrics by Cast of Bare: A Pop Opera, Jim Price

Bare the Album – Act 1

2008

[STUDENTS]
We're doing time in confession
It's the sacrament of oppression
We have no need for forgiveness
Because our shit's none of His business
[TANYA]
I got so high I fainted
[ALAN]
Sometimes I don't recycle
[ZACK]
I finally nailed my girlfriend
[LUCAS]
I took some extra NyQuil
[KYRA]
I blinked and it was over
[DIANE]
I swear with all my might
[STUDENTS]
I'll sin no more
I'm sorry, Lord
We're doing time in confession
It's the poor man's therapy session
We have no need for forgiveness
Because our shit's none of His business
[TANYA & KYRA]
That man should mind his own business
[ALAN]
How does the "Glory Be" go?
[RORY]
He gave me nine Hail Marys
[KYRA]
Twenty-five Our Fathers
[ZACK]
This is so arbitrary
[DIANE]
I don't think God intended
Confession to be scary
[STUDENTS]
Say that you'll forgive me, Lord
We're doing time in confession
Where we're working out some aggression
We have no need for forgiveness
Because our shit's none of His business
Hell no, our shit's none of His business
[PETER & MATT, PETER, MATT]
Father
Can the church be wrong?
Can a sin be right?
If something that you feel
Something that you saw
Goes against the law
What do you do?
Do you tell?
What do I follow?
[FATHER]
The Church's teachings come
From centuries of study
Questions of doctrine are best left
To greater minds than yours
This is not to say the Church is never wrong
But if you hold to her creed
You will never find yourself let down
(spoken)
Is there anything else, son?
[PETER & MATT, spoken]
No, Father
[PETER]
Hear my voice
[MATT]
Did you really hear me?
[IVY]
Hear my voice
[KYRA & TANYA]
I don’t think you see me
[NADIA & LUCAS]
And you think you know me
[ZACK]
Did you really hear me?
[DIANE & TANYA]
Would you really know me?
[MATT]
And you think you see me
[ALAN & RORY]
Hear my voice
[PETER]
If I ever told you
If I ever told you
If I ever told you
[SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
Okay
Let's just try to put yesterday's rehearsal behind us
New day, new attitude
Three, four, ...
[STUDENTS, sung poorly]
Two households both alike in dignity
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene
[SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
People, your first note is a C natural
Ain't nothing natural about what you're singing
[STUDENTS, sung poorly]
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean
[SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
That's it
There is bad and then there's whatever y'all are doing
Have mercy
Go practice somewhere I can't hear you
[IVY, spoken]
Sister Chantelle
I did some sketches
You know, like for the poster or the program
[SISTER CHANTELLE, spoken]
Uh-huh
[MATT, spoken]
Hey, that looks great
[IVY, spoken]
Oh, thanks
[NADIA, spoken]
Bathroom stalls don't lie
She is good with her hands
