- Bruce
(Performs - Miss Trunchbull, Children)
[Interlude]
Consider a slice
Or even two, Bruce...
Might have been nice,
But even you, Bruce,
- I'm Here
(Performs - Matilda, Escapologist)
[Interlude]
Don't cry.
I am here, little girl.
Please don't cry.
Dry your eyes.
- Loud
(Performs - Mrs Wormwood, Rudolpho)
Somewhere along the way, my dear,
You've made an awful error.
You oughtn't blame yourself now. Come along...
You seem to think that people like people what are clever.
It's very quaint. It's very sweet. But wrong.
People don't like smarty-pants what go 'round
- Miracle
(Performs - Children, Doctor, Mrs Wormwood, Mr Wormwood, Matilda, Company)
My mummy says I'm a miracle.
My daddy says I'm his special little guy.
I am a princess,
And I am a prince.
Mum says I'm an angel sent down from the sky.
- My House
(Performs - Miss Honey, Mr. Honey, Matilda)
This roof keeps me dry when the rain falls.
This door helps to keep the cold at bay.
On this floor, I can stand on my own two feet.
On this chair, I can write my lessons.
On this pillow, I can dream my nights away.
And, this table, as you can see,
- Naughty
(Performs - 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,
- Pathetic
(Performs - Miss Honey)
[Chorus:]
Knock on the door, Jenny.
Just knock on the door.
Don't be pathetic.
Knock on the door, Jenny.
- Quiet
(Performs - Matilda)
Have you ever wondered, well I have,
About how when I say, say, red, for example,
There's no way of knowing if red
Means the same thing in your head
As red means in my head
When someone says red?
- Revolting Children
(Performs - Children)
Woah!
Never again will she get the best of me!
Never again will she take away my freedom.
And we won't forget the day we fought
For the right to be a little bit naughty!
Never again will The Chokey door slam!
- School Song
My mummy says I'm a miracle.
My daddy says I'm his special little guy.
I am a princess,
And I am a prince.
Mum says I'm an angel. (x3)
So you think you're A-ble [able]
To survive this mess by B-ing [being]
- Telly
(Performs - Mr Wormwood, Michael, Company)
Somewhere on a show I heard
That a picture tells a thousand words,
So telly, if you bothered to take a look,
Is the equivalent, of like, lots of books!
[Chorus 1:]
- The Hammer
(Performs - Miss Trunchbull)
Look at these trophies.
See how my trophies gleam in the sunlight.
See how they shine.
What do you think it took to become
English Hammer-throwing champion 1969?
Do you think in that moment, when my big moment came,
- The Smell of Rebellion
(Performs - Miss Trunchbull, Children)
This school of late has started reeking -
Quiet, maggots, when I’m speaking! -
Reeking with a most disturbing scent...
Only the finest nostrils smell it,
But I know it oh-too-well.
It is the odour of rebellion.
- This Little Girl
(Performs - Miss Honey)
Stop being pathetic, Jenny.
Stop pretending, Jenny,
That you are going to march in there
And give them a piece of your mind.
Leave it alone, Jenny.
The more that you try,
- When I Grow Up
(Performs - Children, Miss Honey, Matilda, Company)
When I grow up,
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
That I need to reach to climb the trees
You get to climb when you're grown up.
And when I grow up,
