Backyard Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of Amélie

Amélie (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2017

[AMÉLIE]
I washed and folded all of your laundry
I fixed that sink with the leak
I left you some meals in the freezer;
Enough to last you a week
So maybe when the weather is warmer
And you have a day that is free-
Dad, you should come and visit me

[RAPHAEL, spoken]
Nope. Can't leave my buddy here alone

[AMÉLIE, spoken]
The gnome is keeping you here?

[RAPHAEL, spoken]
Hehaho
Yeah

[RAPHAEL]
A garden gnome's life isn't easy
There's terra-cotta rocks in the turf
Once I went away for a weekend-

[AMÉLIE, spoken]
Great!

[RAPHAEL]
-Some neighbors painted him like a smurf
I need to be here to protect him
I'm kinda like his body guard
I'm better off in my backyard

[RAPHAEL, spoken]
Uh I gotta run to the store a-and pick up some touch-up paint

[AMÉLIE, spoken]
Okay...
You're comin' with me
