Naughty Matilda the Musical Original Cast

[MATILDA]
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water, so they say
Their subsequent fall was inevitable
They never stood a chance—
They were written that way
Innocent victims of their story!

Like Romeo and Juliet
T'was written in the stars before they even met
That love and fate and a touch of stupidity
Would rob them of their hope of living happily
The endings are often a little bit gory
I wonder why they didn't just change their story
We're told we have to do as we're told, but surely
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty

Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change

Even if you're little, you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like "little" stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top, you
Might as well be saying
You think that it's okay
And that's not right!
