In the Middle of the Room, Pt. II Songtext
von Jonathan Groff

Gordon: Here I sit in the middle of the room,
I don′t throw a fit,
And I don't start crying.
Nurses flit as they fiddle in the room.
It′s a damn charade that I can't abide.
Froggy came, froggy went,
I resent his appearance.
Slicing veins, tricky sht!
That is what he said!
Fact remains I could soon be dead.
In the middle of my gloom, in the middle of my fright,
In the middle of my room, in the middle of the night.

Mimi: Here I stand in the middle of the road,

Gordon: In the middle of the room,

Mimi: And I'm waiting for a car,

Gordon: And I′m waiting for a shot.

Mimi: To come along and kill me.

Gordon: Nurse, please!

Mimi: People ask why I′m standing in the road


Gordon: I'm sitting in the room.

Mimi: And I say because,

Gordon: I′m afraid of what I've got.

Mimi: I′m frightened he will die.

Gordon: I'll die.

Gordon and Mimi: Kill me please, straight ahead, make me dead, get it over with.

Mimi: I just called to tell you every thing′s gonna be alright.

Gordon: Ma, you sound foolish.

Mimi: Mother will protect, mothers gonna fix things, anything that's wrecked, mothers gonna make things-

Gordon: Mother! please, say goodbye,
ma a heart to heart.
When I die, you can't fall apart.

Mimi: What a stupid thing to say,
rather stab me with a knife,
what an ignorant display,
in the middle of your life,
the middle of
your, in the middle of your

Gordon: It is not the middle of my life, mother!
I′m dying!


Mimi: You are too young to die
I will see you tomorrow.
