《Act I: I Know Things Now》歌词

[00:00:00] I Know Things Now - Stephen Sondheim

[00:00:03] Mother said

[00:00:04] Straight ahead

[00:00:05] Not to delay

[00:00:06] Or be misled

[00:00:08] I should have heeded

[00:00:10] Her advice

[00:00:11] But he seemed so nice

[00:00:15] And he showed me things

[00:00:17] Many beautiful things

[00:00:18] That I hadn't thought to explore

[00:00:21] They were off my path

[00:00:23] So I never had dared

[00:00:25] I had been so careful

[00:00:27] I never had cared

[00:00:29] And he made me feel excited

[00:00:30] Well excited and scared

[00:00:35] When he said Come in

[00:00:36] With that sickening grin

[00:00:38] How could I know what was in store

[00:00:41] Once his teeth wre bared

[00:00:43] Though I really got scared

[00:00:45] Well excited and scared

[00:00:47] But he drew me close

[00:00:49] And he swallowed me down

[00:00:50] Down a dark slimy path

[00:00:52] Where lie secrets that I never want to know

[00:00:54] And when everything familiar

[00:00:56] Seemed to disappear forever

[00:00:57] At the end of the path

[00:00:59] Was Granny once again

[00:01:01] So we wait in the dark

[00:01:02] Until someone sets us free

[00:01:04] And we're brought into the light

[00:01:06] And we're back at the start

[00:01:08] And I know things now

[00:01:11] Many valuable things

[00:01:12] That I hadn't known before

[00:01:16] Do not put you faith

[00:01:17] In a cape and a hood

[00:01:19] They will not protect you

[00:01:21] The way that they should

[00:01:23] And take extra care with strangers

[00:01:24] Even flowers have their dangers

[00:01:26] And though scary is exciting

[00:01:28] Nice is different than good

[00:01:33] Now I know

[00:01:34] Don't be scared

[00:01:35] Granny is right

[00:01:36] Just be prepared

[00:01:37] Isn't it nice to know a lot

[00:01:41] And a little bit not
