Its Alive by Original Cast of Zombie Prom Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1996

[JONNY]
Now I’m back and boy I’m ready
Ev'rything is crystal clear
Gonna get me my diploma
And complete my senior year!

Gonna come back to my senses
Smell the roses, mend the fences
Make the world think better of me
All I need is someone to love me
Toffee, take me back!
Toffee, take me back!

[MISS STRICT]
Good heavens!
Jonny Warner --
Back from the dead!
It's alive!

[KIDS]
Uh-huh!
[MISS STRICT]
Lord, would you look at this creature feature
What a disgusting display
Check out this nightmare that rose with the moon
Straight from the depths of the black lagoon
Cover your popcorn and duck!
Frankenstein's running amok!

[KIDS]
It's alive!
It's alive!

[JONNY]
Who'd have ever guessed
I had a soul to revive?
My body falls to pieces
But my spirit starts to thrive
For the first time in my life --

[KIDS]
It's alive!

[MISS STRICT]
Now, listen to me, Jonny Warner
Lord knows why you've come
But whatever it is, you'd better leave
I've no patience for zombie scum!
[JONNY]
Tell you Miss Strict, I used to hate you
I could not be reached
But now that I’m back, I see the wisdom
In all you taught and preached

Now I’m back
And I’m right on track
Got my head on straight
Went astray
Then I saw the way
I’m set to grad-u--ate--ate--ate!
Went astray
Then I saw the way
I pray I’m not too late!
Ow!

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[MISS STRICT, spoken]
Mr. Warner, for many generations now, the Enrico Fermi High School has been one of the most highly regarded educational institutions in the country -- and I'm not about to let some zombie troublemaker just waltz in here and shake things up! Under no circumstances will you be allowed to return!
(over the KIDS' protests)
And furthermore: anyone caught fraternizing with this... cadaver, will be dealt a swift and serious punishment. Any more of this behavior, and I will personally see to it that all extracurricular activities are cancelled!
No more sports!
No more pep squad!
And no more twirling, ever!
Good day, Mr. Warner. Case closed!
