[spoken]
Vexen: Ladies, you have it all
wrong.
Drizella: What are you doing here,
old man?
Anastasia: Yeah, scram!
Lady Tremaine: Girls! Let us hear
what he has to say.
Vexen: Thank you. *sits*
Mother Gothel: (annoyed) To what do
we owe this little interruption?
Vexen: I couldn’t help but overhear.
That’s not tough love. In fact, it sounded more like abuse.
Queen Grimhilde: Did you forget which
side you’re on?
Lady Tremaine: And what would you
know about raising children?
Vexen: I’ve raised a boy.
[sung]
A child landed on our doorstep, we
were quick to take him in
Scared and all alone, he had no
next-of-kin
We home-schooled him, of course - I
was strict and I was stern
Fortunately for me, he was very
quick to learn
Our master’s soft approach didn’t
meet with my approval
A problem that was solved by his
eventual removal (LT: Ooh!)
I had my own research, an agenda
some might say
Everything was fine until that boy
got in the way
Because, as he grew older, he would oft
forget his place
So I hit him once or twice across
his little face (MG: Ha!)
Wait, that was a mistake, and for
that I paid the price
To this day he resents me for not
being very nice (QG: Ah!)
No, but I love him, really, it’s
true!
Lady Tremaine: *puts hand on his
shoulder* You did what you had to do
Vexen: (spoken) Oh, I’m as bad as
you all are. *facepalm*
[sung]
Lady Tremaine: Punish them so they
stay indoors
Mother Gothel: There’s one way and
it’s only yours
Drizella: Tiny!
Anastasia: Whiny!
Drizella & Anastasia: Stubborn
too!
The things he put you through!
Queen Grimhilde: Call us jealous,
call us vain
You can’t deny that you’re the same
Lady Tremaine: We can see you’re
non-plussed
Mother Gothel: Accept that you’re
one of us!
All: This is what’s known as love,
tough love!
