Dr. Horrible – Act One Songs:

FreezeRay
Laundry day
See you there
Under Things
Tumbling

Wanna Say
Love your Hair
here I go
mumbling

With my freezeray
I will stop
the world

With my freezeray
I will find the time to
find the words to

Tell you how
how you make
make me feel
what’s the phrase?

like a fool
kinda sick
special needs
anyways

with my freezeray I will stop
the pain
it’s not a deathray or an icebeam
that’s all Johnny Snow

I just think you need time to know
that I’m the guy to make it real
the feelings you don’t dare to feel

I’ll bend the world to our will
And we’ll make time stand still

that’s the plan
rule the world
you and me
anyday

love your hair
(what?)
no I…I uh… love the air
anyway

with my freezeray I will stop–

BadHorse (the Application)
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse

He rides across the nation
The thoroughbred of sin
He got the application
That you just sent in

It needs evaluation
So let the games begin
A heinous crime, a show of force
A murder would be nice of course

Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
He’s Bad

The Evil League of Evil
Is watching so beware
The grade that you receive
Will be your last we swear

So make the Bad Horse gleeful
Or he’ll make you his mare….

Get/You’re saddled up
There’s no recourse
It’s Hi-Ho Silver
Signed Bad Horse

Caring Hand
Will you lend a caring hand
to shelter those who need it

only have to sign your name
don’t even have to read it

would you help? No?
How about you?

A Man’s Gotta Do What A Man’s Gotta Do
A man’s gotta do
what a man’s gotta do
Don’t plan the plan
If you can’t follow through

All that matters
Taking matters into your own hands
Soon I’ll control everything
My wish is your command

Stand back Everyone,
Nothin here to see
Just imminent danger
In the middle of it, me

Yes Captain Hammer’s here
Hair Blowing in the Breeze
The day needs my saving expertise

A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do
It seems destiny ends with me saving you
The only doom that’s looming is you loving me to death
So I’ll give you a sec to catch your breath

(Pause for Dialog)

Thank you Hammer-Man
I don’t think I can
Explain how important it was
That you stopped the van

I would be splattered
I’d be crushed into debris
Thank you sir for saving me

Hammer: Don’t worry about it-A man’s gotta do What a Man’s gotta do
Penny: You came from above
Horrible: Are you kidding

Hammer: It seems destiny ends with me saving you
Penny: I wonder what you’re captain of
Horrible: What heist were you watching (stop looking at her like that)

Hammer: When you’re the best you can’t rest, what’s the use
Penny: My heart is beating like a drum
Horrible: Did you notice that he threw you in the garbage?

Hammer: If there’s ass needs kicking some ticking bomb to defuse
Penny: Must…. Must be in shock
Horrible: I stopped the van… The remote control was in my hand

Hammer: The only doom that’s looming is you loving me to death
Penny: …Assuming I’m not loving you to death
Horrible: Whaat…e…ver

Hammer: So please give me a sec to catch my breath
Penny: …Please give me a sec to catch my breath
Horrible: Balls

Dr. Horrible – Act Two Songs:

My Eyes:

Any dolt with half a brain
Can see that humankind has gone insane
To the point where I don’t know if I’ll upset the status quo
If I throw poison in the watermain.

Listen close to everybody’s heart
And hear that breaking sound
Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
And crashing to the ground

I cannot believe my eyes
How the world’s filled with filth and lies
but it’s plain to see evil inside of me
is on the rise.

Look around
We’re living with the lost and found
Just when you feel you’ve almost drowned
You find yourself on solid ground

And you believe there’s good in everybody’s heart
Keep it safe and sound
With hope you can do your part
To turn a life around

I cannot believe my eyes
Is the world finally growing wise
Because it seems to me some kind of harmony
Is on the rise

H: Anyone with half a brain
P: Take it slow

H: Could spend their whole life howling in pain
P: He looks at me and seems to know

H: Because the dark is everywhere and
P: The things that I’m afraid to show

H: Penny doesn’t seem to care that soon the dark in me is all that will remain
P: and suddenly I feel this glow

H: Listen close to everybody’s heart
P: And I believe there’s good in everybody’s heart

H: and hear that breaking sound
P: keep it safe and sound

H: Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
P: With hope you can do your part

H: And crashing to the ground
P: To turn a life around

H: I cannot believe my eyes how the world’s filled with filth and lies
P:I cannot believe my eyes how the world’s finally growing wise

H: But it’s plain to see evil inside of me is on the rise
P: And it’s plain to see rapture inside of me is on the rise

Bad Horse Phonecall (Go Kill Someone:

He saw the operation
You tried to pull today
But your humiliation means he still votes “Neigh”
And now assassination is just the only way

There will be blood
It might be yours
So go kill someone
Signed Bad Horse

Keep Your Head Up, Billy Buddy:

Here’s a Story of a girl
Who grew up lost and lonely
Thinking love was fairy tale
And trouble was made only for me

Even in the darkness every color can be found
And every day of rain brings
water flowing
to things growing in the ground

Grief replaced with pity
For a city barely coping
Dreams are easy to achieve
If hope is all I’m hoping to be

Anytime you’re hurt
There’s one who has it worse around
And every drop of rain will keep you growing
Seeds you’re sowing in the ground

So keep your head up billy buddy

Brand New Day:

This appeared as a moral dilemma
Cause at first it was weird though I swore to eliminate
The worst of the plague that devoured humanity
It’s true I was vague on the ‘How’
so how can it be that you have shown me the light?

It’s a brand new day
And the sun is high
All the birds are singing
That you’re gonna die

How I hesitated
Now I wonder why
It’s a brand new day

All the times that you beat me unconscious I’ll forgive
All the crimes Incomplete, listen honestly I’ll live
Mr. Cool, Mr. Right, Mr. Knowitall is through
Now my future’s so bright and I owe it all to you Who showed me the light

It’s a brand new me
I’ve got no remorse
Now the water’s rising but I know the course
I’m gonna shock the world
Gonna Show Bad Horse
It’s a Brand New Day

And Penny will see the evil me
Not a joke not a dork not a failure
And she may cry but her tears will dry
When I hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia.

It’s a brand new day
Yeah the sun is high
All the angels sing
Because you’re gonna die

Go ahead and laugh
Yeah I’m a funny guy
Tell everyone goodbye
It’s a brand new day

Dr. Horrible – Act Three Songs:

So They Say:

So they say Captain Hammer’s become a crusader
Political. He’s cleaning up the streets (about time)
So they say that it’s real love
So romantic (He signed this)

So they say we’ll have blankets and beds
We can open by Monday thanks to you (Thanks to me)

It’s the perfect story
So they say a hero leading the way
Hammer’s called to glory
Let’s all be our best (Next up, who’s gay?)

So they say he saved her life
They say she works with the homeless
And doesn’t eat meat
We have a problem with her (This is his hair)

This is so nice
I just might sleep with the same girl twice
They say it’s better the second time
They say you get to do the weird stuff (we do the weird stuff)

This is perfect for me so they say
I guess he’s pretty ok
After years of stormy
Sailing have I finally found the bay?

(<ring> He’s still not picking up)

There’s no happy ending
So they say, not for me anyway
Should I stop pretending

Horrible: stop pretending, Take the chance to build a brand new day
Penny: Or is this a brand new day

This is his dry cleaning bill
Four sweater vests

Everyone’s A Hero:

It may not feel too classy
Begging just to eat
But you know who does that? Lassie
And she always gets a treat

So you wonder what your part is
Because you’re homeless and depressed
But home is where the heart is
So your real home’s in your chest

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
Everyone’s got villains they must face
They’re not as cool as mine
But folks you know it’s fine to know your place

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
In their own not-that-heroic way

So I thank my girlfriend Penny
Yeah, we totally had sex
She showed me there’s so many
Different muscles I can flex

There’s the deltoids of compassion
There’s the abs of being kind
It’s not enough to bash in heads
You’ve got to bash in minds

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
Everyone’s got something they can do
Get up go out and fly
Especially that guy he smells like poo

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
you and you and mostly me and you

I’m poverty’s new sheriff
And I’m bashing in the slums
A hero doesn’t care if you’re a bunch of scary
alcoholic bums

(everybody!)

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
Everyone can blaze a hero’s trail
Don’t worry if it’s hard,
if you’re not a friggin ‘tard you will prevail

Everyone’s a hero in their own way
Everyone a hero in their –

Horrible’s Monologing Song:

Look at these People
Amazing how sheeple (sheep’ll?)
Show up for the slaughter

No one condemning
You lined up like lemmings
You led to the water

Why can’t they see what I see Why can’t they hear the lies
Maybe the fee’s too pricey for them to realize
Your disguise is slipping, I think you’re slipping

Now that your savior is
still as the grave you’re
beginning to fear me

Like cavemen fear thunder
I still have to wonder
Can you really hear me

I bring you pain, the kind you can’t suffer quietly
Fire up your brain remind you inside you’re rioting
Society is slipping, everythings slipping away, so

go ahead run away
say it was horrible
spread the word tell a friend
tell them the tale

get a pic do a blog
heroes are over with
look at him not a word
hammer meet nail

then I win then I get
everything I ever
all the cash all the fame
and social change

anarchy that I run
it’s Dr. Horrible’s turn
you people all have to learn
this world is going to burn <blast> burn <blast> (yeah it’s two R’s, h-o-r-r yeah right) burn!

no sign of penny good
I would give anything not to have her see

it’s gonna be bloody head up billy buddy
there’s no time for mercy

here goes no mercy–
That’s not a good sound

WAAAAAAAAAAY!

Everything:

Here lies everything
The world I wanted at my feet
My victory’s complete
So hail to the king

(Everything you ever)

Arise and sing
So your world’s benign
So you think justice has a voice and we all have a choice
Well now your world is mine

(Everything you ever)

And I am fine…

Now the nightmare’s real
Now dr. horrible is here to make you quake with fear
To make the whole world kneel

(Everything you ever)

And I wont feel … a thing

    In “My Eyes” and “Everyone’s a Hero” you’ve got a couple of ’cause’ s listed ‘because’
    should be:
    ” ’cause it seems to me, some kind of Harmony” and
    ” ’cause you’re homeless and depressed”

    I’m also not sure whether it was an intentional choice not to include the chorus in “Everyone’s a Hero” but if you’d like to that goes like this :
    “Everyone’s a hero in their own way (we’re heroes too)
    Everyone can blaze a hero’s trail (we’re just like you)”
    There’re some ancillary ooh’s and ahh’s in there as well, but I think calling them lyrics would be a bit much.

    Last, I’d like to throw my vote in for “sheep’ll”. I was trying to articulate my Grammatical justification all to do with future relative tense, but it’s complicated, and still only subjective, so I think no one would care.

    Wow – seriously? You all wasted that much time and energy on a sheeple discussion? Please no one ask this group whether its kitty-korner or katty-korner, this posts could extend into the next decade.

    Per the sheeple/sheepwill/sheep’ll — I believed it was sheeple — lemmings are mentioned and sheeple seems to me to be a complementary comparison to the group to which Dr. H is singing.

    But for entertainment value, it was especially comedic to read the comments that stated that “Joss wouldn’t use sheeple.” and the ensuing explanation. Really? Close personal friend, eh? Yeah, I’ll wait for the liner notes – thanks all for your amusing banter though. :)

    Further, I’m not sold on the accuracy of the CC on hulu since it said, “I’ll give you a second to catch your breath.” when it’s CLEARLY “I’ll give you a sec to catch your breath.” That’s just one inconsistency.
