[BUDDY]

Do you remember what you said?

How you hated me and wished I was dead

That you hoped I'd drive off the road

Then I'd hit a tree, and my car would explode

Well, I thought to myself

That can't be good for a daughter to say

And I thought to myself

I should do this another way


[KIMBERLY]

Maybe this time

Maybe this time

After all the lies

After all the beer

Maybe he can change

Maybe he's sincere

Maybe

This time


[PATTIE]

Do you remember what you said?

How I reminded you of that story you rеad

And at first, I felt kind of thrilled

'Til you explainеd who Medea had killed

Well, I thought to myself

That can't be good for a daughter to say

And I thought to myself

I should do this another way


[KIMBERLY]

Maybe this time

Maybe this time

After all the hurt

Maybe there's a twist

Maybe she won't be a narcissist

I want to believe them

I want to believe

This time

I will believe

This time

Oh, this time

Oh, this time

I put aside the doubt

This time

Oh, this time

Oh, this time

Maybe things work out


[DEBRA]

This time

Oh, this time

This time

The dead ends will end


[SETH & (DEBRA)]

This time (This time)

Oh, this time (This time)

Oh


[BOTH]

This time


[SETH]

I think I found a friend


[SHOWCHOIR]

It's Friday night in Bergen County

There are parties everywhere

And we finally got invited!


[ALL]

This time

(Oh) this time

(Oh) this time

A better life begins

It's Friday night in Bergen County (This time)

There are parties everywhere (This time)

This time

Everybody wins

This time

We won't implode

This time


[KIMBERLY]

We hit the road


[ALL]

This time


[BUDDY & PATTIE]

We'll stay on track


[ALL]

This time


[SETH]

My voice won't crack


[ALL]

This time


[SHOWCHOIR]

We take the prize


[ALL]

This time


[DEBRA]

Nobody dies!

Not like the other time


[ALL]

This time

Oh, this time

Oh, this time

No one breaks your heart

This time (This time)

Oh, this time (This time, this time)

Oh

This time


[KIMBERLY]

Nothing falls apart


[BUDDY (spoken)]

Make a wish!


[KIMBERLY]

I will believe


[ALL]

This time
