Somebody Will Do Something Lyrics
[BRIDGET]
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
[LIZZIE]
Axe Fall River runs red!
Maggie's washing windows
Father takes a walk
Stepmother goes upstairs
And I can hardly talk
I'm so afraid
I went down to the cellar
And searched behinds some stacks
My eyes they never say it
But my hands they found the axe
I'm so afraid
[ALL]
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
[LIZZIE]
I step onto the staircase
Stepmother hears me not
I step into the bedroom
Oh Lizzie, what have you got
I'm so afraid
[ALL]
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will die
[BRIDGET, spoken]
Oh, miss Lizzie! You startled me! Mr. Borden's just come home, he said to keep the noise down. He'll be napping in the living room and doesn't want to be disturbed
[LIZZIE, spoken]
Maggie, you are going out this afternoon?
[BRIDGET, spoken]
Oh, I don't know. I might and I might not. I don't feel very well
[LIZZIE, spoken]
If you go out make sure to lock the door for Mrs. Borden has gone out on a sick call and I might go out too
[BRIDGET, spoken]
Miss Lizzie, who is sick?

[LIZZIE, spoken]
I don't know. Somebody
[BRIDGET, spoken]
Somebody?
[LIZZIE, spoken]
Yes. She had a note from somebody this morning. It must be in town. There is a cheap sale of dresses at Sergeant's this afternoon. Pennies on the yard
[BRIDGET, spoken]
I'm going to have a lovely one
[LIZZIE]
With Maggie so retired
Stepmother quite undone
Father will be napping
He'll wish he had that son
I'm so afraid
[ALL]
Somebody will do something
Somebody will take something
Somebody will strike something
Somebody will
Somebody will die
[LIZZIE, spoken]
Maggie! Go and get Miss Russell. I don't want to be alone in this house
[BRIDGET, spoken]
What's the matter?
[LIZZIE, spoken]
Father is dead. Somebody came in and killed him
