G
   Oh lady, oh baby,
  C                           F               G
I really think you’re something

I used to think cupid
        C                    F       G
was pretty fucking stupid


   A                                         F
I don’t know what’s going on
                                          G
but I’ve written you a song
        A                                 F
And if there’s a god above
                                  G
He’d be the god love

      G
Do you think you could love me,
  C                              F      G
I know you said I was ugly
That one time

        G
And maybe I scorned thee,
       C                   F
But now I find I’m horney
       G
For you, it’s true,
MAYBE YOU ARE HORNEY FOR ME TOO!!!!

        A                              F
Last time I scored a goal
                                              G
You said I didn’t have a soul
        A                                   F
And if you’ve been offended
                                    G
I hope this will mend it


G
What if we were dating,
C                         F                       G
Wouldn’t that be breaking all the rules

RAP
             G
It might sound like I’m joking
Or that I am poking fun at you,
            C                                       F
It’s not true though it sounds like something I would do
         G
And I know I said I’d rather be hung like a cat
       C
And beaten with a bat
                  F
And stick a biro in my eye
       A
But everyone lies
Sometimes
Love is blind?
That didn’t even rhyme
            G
WORD

Oh lady, you’re lovely,
  C                            F      G
I want you to be my baby
And maybe I’m crazy, 
         C                      F            G
But I know I won’t betray thee 
You

A                                          F 
   And this will sound sappy;
                                  G
You make me happy
        A                F 
And I’m no poet,
                                        G
But I think you know that

G
BEATRICE,
YOU’RE VIVACIOUS,
               C
I CAN’T TAKE THIS,
  F
I LOVE YOU x2

G
Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice 
Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice
C
Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice 
F
Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice Beatrice x3

A                                                  F
    But I guess I’ll just see you at school
                                G
And I’ll play the fool

Beatrice, You're Vivacious

'Sigh Not So' was arranged and performed by Reuben Hudson for the New Zealand web-series 'Nothing Much To Do', which can be found on YouTube.

The lyrics are by William Shakespeare, and appear in his play 'Much Ado About Nothing'

LYRICS

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,
Men were deceivers ever,
One foot in sea and one on shore,
To one thing constant never

Then sigh not so, but let them go,
And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into 
Hey, nonny nonny

Sing no more ditties, sing no mo
Of dumps so dull and heavy.
The fraud of men was ever so,
Since summer first was leavy

Then sigh not so, but let them go
And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into 
Hey, nonny nonny

Sigh Not So

'Almost Love' was written and performed by Maude Morris for the New Zealand webseries 'Nothing Much To Do', which can be found on YouTube. The original video the song featured in can be found here: 

Almost Love

'Way To Tell You' was written by Elsie Bollinger for the New Zealand web-series 'Nothing Much To Do' on YouTube. The song is sung by Harriett Maire and Reuben Hudson. The original video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM4vr83xEbg&list=UUFkxbSqhdwL8OjrTCwwELpQ

LYRICS

There’s no way to tell you
How much I love you,
It’s crazy I know,
I don’t know where to go,
If I try to leave your side
I might just lose my mind
 
You’re the one for me,
I know it sounds cheesy,
Believe me when I say
I never thought I’d feel this way
 
I see you standing there,
I wonder if you’re aware,
I see you and I grin,
My world it starts to spin,
I want it to be said,
These things that are in my head

If I said it to your face
You’d call me a disgrace,
But everyone can see
What you have done to me
 
I could try to deny it
But why should I fight this
It’s been you all along,
I’ve been in the wrong,
Who thought you’d hear me say this
But I don’t care anyway cos’
  
You make me smile,
Please stay for a while,
Of course you’re just a fool,
But that’s what makes you kind of cool
 
You stayed true… when I needed
Someone I felt defeated,
I love it that you care
And that you were there,
You know without you
there’d be nothing much to do

Of course it won’t be perfect
But maybe it’d be worth it,
It won’t be okay,
Not every day,
We’ll argue and stuff
And kick up a fuss but
 
I want you to know
it’s from this we will grow,
And in the end
You’re more than just a friend,
I think you feel the same way
So I think that it’s okay,
To tell you that it’s true
I’m in love with you

LYRICS

Drunk too much last night I’ll forget 
Anything that’s real that we said, 
Ain’t got no worries hanging over me, 
Ain’t got no pounding in my head 

I can’t wait, 
How can I keep it to myself? 
I wanna shout it from the rooftops that it's 
All taking shape, 
I’m ready to make my move, 
Let's escape 
Oh let’s escape 

Potentially 
This could be 
A new beginning 
For you and me 

Feel like a brand new me 
And I can finally see clearly 
I know now what it is I want 
And who it is I wanna be 

I can’t wait, 
How can I keep it to myself? 
I wanna shout it from the rooftops that it's 
All taking shape, 
I’m ready to make my move, 
Let's escape 
Oh let’s escape 

Potentially 
This could be 
A new beginning 
For you and me
