Original Broadway Cast of Violet, Annie Golden, Ben Davis , Sutton Foster - Surprised lyrics

Is this a suitcase – is it mine?
Am I waitin' by the candy stand
Beneath the Greyhound Station sign?
Have I got a ticket in my hand? Stupid
People of Spruce Pine are stupid

Lord, I'll call the whole trip off
If Leroy Evans looks me in the face
Nope, I win, he's terrorized
This town is a superstitious place –
Next week, won't they be surprised

Get your tickets ready this is the Memphis
Bus, by way of Johnson City
Kingsport, Knoxville, Nashville
And a bunch'a towns
No bigger'n this one tickets, please

The Baltimore Catechism a Catholic
In these parts? No ma'am
How you read it though, I don't know
With the margins so full of writing!
It was my mama's move along, m…oooh miss

"Mr wallace Weatherman"
Give my scar another nosy look
In a week, you'll be surprised –
Got my healin' planned out in my book
Next week, I'll come back disguised

(spoken)
Oh, he thinks well of himself, I can
Tell that but what's he have, really?
(sung) lips? Thin cheeks? Flat
I sure don't want mine like tha

Nose? Bent ears? Runts
Got four eyes and he can't see once
Nothing in his face for me
His hair though – is it Cherokee?
It's black enough to be

I want my own as soft as a breeze –
And also curlier, please

Do you mind if I sit here, dear?
I like to be up front
So's I can look out the front
Winders otherwise I get dizzy
Looking off to the side

Once I bet her eyes were green
Wonder how those eyes would look on me
Funny, if she recognized
Finders keepers, lady, wait and see
Next week, won't you be surprised
Praise God, it's started september 4th, 1964

Mama, your book says "it's blessed to pity"
Mama, just look, I'm a long ways from pretty
Be an angel, Mama, help to save me
Make the Lord restore the face you gave me –
And I will praise his grace rain or shine
When you see a brand-new face
When you see a brand-new face
When you see a brand-new face –
And it's mine – won't you be surprised
Won't you be surprised
Won't you be surprised won't you be –

You going far? Tulsa, Oklahoma
I never been there i hear the
Trees give out oh! My goodness
That's just why I'm going get this
Scar healed once and for all
'Course my mailman Vincent Finzer was
Born with a cleft palate
And he couldn't be any sweeter!

I wasn't born with this scar it took an
Axe blade to split my face in two
