Dr. Horrible - Act One Songs:
Laundry day
See you there
Under things
Tumbling
Wanna Say
Love your Hair
Here I go
Mumbling
With my freeze ray
I will stop
The world
With my freeze ray
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 freeze ray I will stop
the pain
It’s not a death ray or an ice beam
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
Any day
Love your hair
Penny: what?
No I…I uh… love the air
Anyway
With my freeze ray I will stop–
Bad Horse Chorus
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….
You’re saddled up
There’s no recourse
It’s Hi-Ho Silver
Signed Bad Horse
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?
Doc:
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 comman….
Hammer:
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
Penny:
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
Doc:
Are you kidding
Hammer:
It seems destiny ends with me saving you
Penny:
I wonder what you’re captain of
Doc:
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
Doc:
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
Doc:
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
Doc:
Whatever
Hammer:
So please give me a sec to catch my breath
Penny:
Please give me a sec to catch my breath
Doc:
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 water main.
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
Cause it seems to me some kind of harmony
Is on the rise
Doc: Anyone with half a brain
Penny: Take it slow
Doc: Could spend their whole life howling in pain
Penny: He looks at me and seems to know
Doc: Because the dark is everywhere and
Penny: The things that I’m afraid to show
Doc: and Penny doesn’t seem to care that soon the dark in me is all that will remain
Penny: And suddenly I feel this glow
Doc: Listen close to everybody’s heart
Penny: And I believe there’s good in everybody’s heart
Doc: And hear that breaking sound
Penny: Keep it safe and sound
Doc: Hopes and dreams are shattering apart
Penny: With hope you can do your part
Doc: And crashing to the ground
Penny: To turn a life around
Doc: I cannot believe my eyes how the world’s filled with filth and lies
Penny: I cannot believe my eyes how the world’s finally growing wise
Doc: But it’s plain to see evil inside of me is on the rise
Penny: And it’s plain to see rapture inside of me is on the rise
Bad Horse Chorus (reprise)
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
Penny's Song
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. Know it I was 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:

Let’s all be our best

Groupies:

And doesn’t eat meat
We have a Problem with her!

I just might sleep with the same girl twice

Groupies:
We do the weird stuff!
Penny:
This is perfect for me

Penny:Or is this a brand new day?
Doc:Take the chance to build a brand new day!
Groupies:
This is his dry cleaning bill
Four sweater vests
Everyone’s a Hero in Their own Way
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
Cause 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’ll know it’s fine
To know your place
Everyone’s a hero in their 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’s a hero in their-
Look at these people
Amazing how 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 fees 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 your rioting
Society is slipping
Everything’s 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, then I run
It’s Dr. Horrible’s turn
You people all have to learn
This world is going to burn!
Burn!
[yeah, it’s two r’s- h-o-r-r, 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!
Hammer:
Waaaaaaaaay!
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 in 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 won’t feel
a thing
