DR HORRIBLE
Any dolt with half a brain
Can see that human-kind has gone insane,
To the point where I don't know,
If I'll upset the status quo,
If I throw poison in the water main.

Listen close to everybody's heart,
And hear that breaking sound.
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
And crashing to the ground!

I cannot believe my eyes!
How the world's filled with filth and lies!
But it's plain to see,
Evil inside of me
Is on the rise.

PENNY
Look around,
We're living with the lost and found.
Just when you feel you've almost drowned,
You find yourself on solid ground.

And you believe, there's good in everybody's heart,
Keep it safe and sound.
With hope you can do your part,
To turn a life around!

I cannot believe my eyes!
Is the world finally growing wise?
'Cause it seems to me!
Some kind of harmony
Is on the rise.

PENNY
Make it slow,

DR. HORRIBLE
Anyone with half a brain

PENNY
He looks at me and seems to know,

DR HORRIBLE
Could spend their whole life howling in pain,

PENNY
the things that I'm afraid to show,

DR HORRIBLE
The dark is everywhere and Penny doesn't seem to care

PENNY
and suddenly I feel this glow.

DR HORRIBLE
That soon the dark in me is all that will remain.

PENNY
And I believe, there's good in everybody's heart,
Keep it safe and sound.

DR HORRIBLE
Listen close to everybody's heart,
And hear that breaking sound.

PENNY
With hope you can do your part
To turn a life around!

DR HORRIBLE
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
And crashing to the ground!

DR HORRIBLE and PENNY
I cannot believe my eyes!

PENNY
How the world's finally growing wise!

DR HORRIBLE
How the world's filled with filth and lies!

DR HORRIBLE
But it's plain to see,

PENNY
And it's plain to see,

DR HORRIBLE
Evil inside of me

PENNY
Rapture inside of me

DR HORRIBLE and PENNY
is on the rise.
