It's Me Lyrics – Silence! The Musical Cast

It's Me Text

---

[Lecter]
Remember the pen that I saw on the table
I ate it when no one was watching
Now I open my mouth and the pen's here again:
Their security's ripe for the botching.
I'll use it to pick the lock
And mutilate both of these cops.
Though it's not Halloween I've concocted a plan
I'll escape from this prison by wearing a man!

[Police]
Look what he did to this officer's face
He chewed off his cheeks and he sprayed him with mace.
We're all in a tizzy, oh Jesus where is he
Oh where could Hannibal be?

[Lecter]
This cop is already dead -- -it's me!

[Police]
Get this man to a hospital
He's arresting he's shaking he's not gonna make it!

[Lecter]
Somebody get me an Oscar for best phony seizure
Just watch how adeptly I fake it.

[Police]
Get out of the way; have the medics arrived?
One's already dead and one's barely alive
Security sucked, and now we're all f**ked
Oh where could Hannibal be?

[Lecter]
This cop is already dead, you'll see.
I'm wearing his face on my head -- it's me.

[Cop 1]
What do I say to a person who just lost his face?
I betcha he'll miss it.

[Cop 2]
That cop has a name -- it's Jim Pembry!
Now tell him he's fine, he looks terrific.

[Police]
Look at that blood
We think he's up there:
The elevator's roof.

[Lecter]
I'm leaving you now
Goodbye and take care
You won't believe this goof.

[Police]
Fire a shot in his knee!
No response; who the hell can this be!?

[Lecter]
I've left the building at last I'm free,

[Police]
Say it isn't so,

[Lecter]
This cop is already dead, you see,

[Police]
Did we just let him go?

[Lecter]
I'm wearing his face on my head...
It's me!!!
