Your Shell of Grief Lyrics by Original Cast of Alice By Heart

Alice By Heart (Original Cast Recording)

2019

[MOCK TURTLE]
Just cry and it's a crisis
You sigh and put the "si" back in "silence"
My tortoise taught "don't pee in the sea"
Give into your grief like me
[MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
Don't bother with denial
Bereavement is the key to survival
That tortoise was my husband you see
Live and breathe your grief like me
[ALICE]
Mock me I'm living in shock here
My cheeks thick with tears
[MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
My heart is a dark polar block, dear
No one comes near
[MOCK MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
No loss could ever match mine
They weep the weep but I lost my Rabbi
My tortoise taught us Torah, you see
Meet yourself in grief like me
[ALICE]
Mock me I'm living in shock here
Such pearls are my tears
[MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
My heart is a mock Loch Ness Monster
[ALICE & MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
Just don't come near
[MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
My life has lost all porpoise
[ALICE]
I lost my hare
[MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
I lost my hair
[MOCK TURTLE]
I lost my tortoise
So, so, I sing King Lear-y-ily
[MOCK MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
Kvell within your shell like me
Just build a wall
[MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
That's better
[MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
Retract your head
[MOCK TURTLE]
You won't get wetter
[MOCK MOCK MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
Love is brief
[MOCK MOCK TURTLE]
And time's a thief
[TURTLES]
Climb into your shell of grief
[MOCK TURTLE, spoken]
So sweet...
