Awful-Awesome Lyrics by Paul Hodge

Clinton the Musical (Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording)

2015

[WJ CLINTON, spoken]
I am William Jefferon Clinton, and this is my story!
[BILLY CLINTON, spoken]
...and mine!
[HILLARY CLINTON, sung]
...and mine!
[COMPANY]
We’re living here in the '90s (The '90s!)
We’re taste and tacky combined (I look good!)
We run 'round wearing our Nikes (Just do it!)
We’ve started getting online (You’ve got mail!)
I’ve just love wearing my scrunchie
(You go, girl!)
We all watch Baywatch with Mitch and the crew
You hear all over the country (the same thing)
That our life living here in '92 is
Awful!
We’re in recession
Awful!
I’ve got depression
Awful!
But it could be that '93 is
Awesome!
A new direction
Awesome!
In this election
Awesome!
We’re on a quest to find the candidate that’s best!
[HILLARY CLINTON, spoken]
What? Aww…
[COMPANY]
The country now is divided
(No, we’re not!
Yes, we are!)
'Cause all Republicans are filthy rats
That seems a little one-sided
(You asshole!)
'Cause we all know that you Democrats are…
Awesome! We’re so PC, we’re...
Awful! Go hug a tree!
We’re awesome!
Republicans, we love our guns, we’re…
Awful! They’re super-rich!
We're awesome! We’re super-rich!
They're awful!
[WJ CLINTON]
You scream and fight
But who can help you make things right?
[BILLY CLINTON]
I can!
[HILLARY CLINTON]
Oh, when your husband’s split in two
You have to be the crazy glue
But I still love him through and through
And they love him too…
[COMPANY]
He is… awful!
[HILLARY CLINTON]
But charismatic!
[COMPANY]
Awful!
[HILLARY CLINTON]
And problematic!
[COMPANY]
Awful!
Yes, we can see this S-O-B is awesome!
[HILLARY CLINTON]
He’s so humane!
[COMPANY]
He’s awesome!
[HILLARY CLINTON]
He feels your pain!
[COMPANY]
He’s awesome!
[WJ CLINTON]
Yes, I agree, so vote for me
I know you’re scared of debt and tax
But from now on, you can relax
You know that I will have your backs
[BILLY CLINTON]
And I play the sax!
[COMPANY]
He plays the sax!
(spoken)
The winner of the 1992 presidential election is…
(sung)
Clinton!
Clinton!
[WJ CLINTON, spoken]
I’m William Jefferson!
[COMPANY]
Clinton!
[BILLY CLINTON, spoken]
And I’m William Jefferson!
[COMPANY]
Clinton!
[HILLARY CLINTON, spoken]
And I’m Hillary Rodham!
[COMPANY]
Clinton!
[WJ CLINTON, spoken]
...do solemnly swear, that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States
[COMPANY]
Ahh…
Awful, he’s smoking pot!
He’s awesome, he’s smoking hot!
She’s awkward
And standing here, he's crystal clear
He’s awful, he’s such a cheat!
He’s awesome, he’s super sweet!
She’s awkward
Yes, we can see that he and she are…
Awful
Awesome
Awkward
Awful
Awesome
Awkward
Awful...some...kward
Awful-some-kward!
