Watch What Happens Lyrics - Newsies - Newsies-original Broadway Cast

Write what you know so they say all I know is I don't know what to write or the right way to write it 

This is big lady don't screw it up this is not some little vaudville I'm reviewing 

Poor little kids versus rich greedy sourpusses 

Ha! It's a cinch it could practically write itself! 

And let's pray it does 

Cause as i may have mentioned I have no clue what I'm doing 

Am I insane this is what I've been waiting for 

Well that plus the screaming of ten angry editors 

A girl! It's a girl! How the hell? Is that even legal? 

Look, just go and get her! 

Not only that, there's a story behind the story 

Thousands of children exploited, invisible 

Speak up! Take a stand! And there's someone to write about it!

That's how things get better 

Give life's little guys some ink and when it dries just watch what happens 

Those kids will live and breath right on the page and once they're center stage 

You watch what happens 

And who's there with her camera and her pen 

As boys turn into men 

They'll storm the gates and then just watch what happens when they do! 

Picture a handsome, heroically charismatic 

Plain spoken know nothing, skirt chasing, cocky little son of a. 

Lie down with dogs and you wake up with a raise and a promotion 

So, he's a flirt a complete ego maniac 

The fact is he's also the face of the strike 

What a face 

Face the fact, that's a face that could save us all from sinking in the ocean 

Like someone said power tends to corrupt in absolute power wait wait?

Corrupts absolutely! 

That is genius! 

But give me some time I'll be twice as good as that six months from never... 

Just look around at the world we're inheriting and think of the one we'll create 

Their mistake is they got old! 

That is not a mistake we'll be making 

no sir! we'll stay young forever 

Give those kids and me the brand new century and watch what happens 

It's David and Goliath do or die 

the fight is on and I can't watch what happens 

But all I know is nothing happens if you just give in 

It can't be any worse than how it's been 

And it just so happens that we just might win! 

So whatever happens 

Let's begin!
