Molly's Rules

The titular track off our demo musical, Molly's Rules, features our catalyst for chaos pontificating about his moral code.

Lyrics:

MOLLY:

If you want to know how

I can breeze through this life

Keeping so collected and so cool

The truth is that it’s simple;

Something easy, something light

Just keep in mind a handful of these rules

So as you travel on this long and winding road

There’s just a couple things that you should know…

Don’t let another person pay

while your purse is the plumper

If they insist and bend your wrist,

that still is not a stumper

If you’re quick,

then you can stick

a little coin back in their hoard

And leave each place a little

better than before

Now come along with me!

JESTER:

Where are we going?

MOLLY:

To Zadash, of course!

If you happen on a bandit, and you’re strong enough to stand it,

It’d be crass to simply clamor for revenge

I like you, Trevor, but this plan just wasn’t clever

There are many better jobs out in the hedge!

Take your men on a walk, and we promise not to talk

Or even think to try and settle up the score

And leave each place a little better than before

FJORD:

We’re just gonna let them go?

They tried to rob us!

MOLLY:

The operative word here being “tried”

When all it is you know just isn’t clear enough

My humblest philosophies might clear it up

And since these simple stratagems might cheer you up

If it’ll help, then I can tell a little more!

If you plan to rob a man then just be sure to understand well

Both the manner of his stature and his mood

And if you can’t surmise it or if they end up disguising it

It’s better to go off and try and find another dude

Try and con the evil and don’t steal from happy people

If you doubt it, you can scout it to be sure

And leave each place a little better than before

And if there’s a rule here

And you think it’s rather clear

Then I’ll just have to clarify that point of view

Each rule has its exception

With a little introspection

You can find the proper path to follow through

And if you love everybody

And I mean LOVE everybody!

You might make yourself a couple rules more

Just leave each place a little lighter

NOTT:

Leave each place a little nicer!

COMPANY:

Leave each place a little brighter than be-

-FORE!

MOLLY:

Leave each place a little better than before
