Out For Love
(Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft & Daphne Rubin-Vega)
I see you're driven by your detestation
Your every step is stoked with animus
You need a different type of motivation
Or there's no way that you can handle this
I know you're thirstin' for vengeance, Vaggie
You're out for blood
But you'll only stand a chance if you're out for love
Out for love, love
Think of who you care about
Protect them and be out
For love, love
You're gonna fight without gloves
Long as you're out for love
Fuel yourself with the fear of losin'
That somebody who's your reason to live
Harness your heart and you can't help choosin'
To fight with all you can give
I know you're thirstin' for vengeance, Vaggie
You're out for blood
But you'll only stand a chance if you're out for love
Out for love, love
Think of who you care about
Protect them and be out
For love, love
You're gonna fight without gloves
And when that push comes to shove
Yeah, you just might rise above
Long as you're out for love
Ready For This
(Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft, Erika Henningsen, Leslie Kritzer, Amir Talai, Kimiko Glenn, Alex Brightman & Blake Roman)
Have you ever wanted something that was so clear in your mind
That you could taste it?
You mean like human flesh?
Uh, sort of
It's a feeling like a rumbling in your gut
That you could finally be faced with
A billion needy faces
I guess what I mean to say is
For the first time in my life
I might have to be ready for this
Ready to be the one who's leading from the front
Gotta come into my own
Gotta come into my throne
Gotta take charge and defend my only home
And although I kinda feel unsteady
Now I need to be ready for this
Have you ever felt like you're willing to die
To save the people of your city?
By die, do you mean use my teeth to rip flesh apart?
That's a start!
'Cause right now we need a leader
And it seems to me that destiny has picked me
To be that, if you'll permit me
So who's with me!
Wouldn't it be super to see more of Hell?
Join up now if you like travel
Come on boys, hop in the saddle!
Lot of sights to see en route to my hotel
Not the mention the camaraderie
Yes siree, you'll form life-changing friendships
With the folks along the way
And feast on all the angels you can eat
Okay
Free food? I'm in! Oh, cool! Whoa, food!
It's time now to act
They're on the attack
When they move to strike
We will fight, biting back
We'll follow your lead
We're eager to feed
We'll sharpen our teeth for the heavenly feast
From this moment on, you can count on us
To be resolute and ravenous
Our appetites are whet, and we're set to seize the day
So I say, oh hey, come join the flesh buffet
Well, that's a little violent, can we tone it down?
Oh, don't be put off by their snarling
That's enthusiasm, darling!
Uh, they just seem a little murdery right now
Don't worry honey, that's their thing
Keep singing
We're super duper grateful to have you folks aboard
We can't wait to taste an angel's wings!
Oh, lord
For the first time in my life
Maybe I can be ready for this
I can be the marshal leading the parade
I can come into my own
And I think I've always known
My destiny could never be postponed
When Adam brings the battle here
I must appear like I'm ready for this
They're dancing along
They're singing her song
Surprised, why, I knew she could do it all along
She's bound to pass the test as princess of Hell
Like her daddy, she is madly power-fell
She's filled with potential that I could guide
I concur!
Stick with her, you'll be on the winning side
For the first time in our lives
We know that we are ready for this
We'll show Heaven a fight they won't forget!
It is time to take a stand
It is time to lend a hand!
Huzzah!
Against the angels and their deadly threat
We cannot take it anymore
The time has come to go to war
Prepare to fight, we're ready for this
I really hope that I'm ready for this
More Than Anything (Reprise)
(Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft, Erika Henningsen & Stephanie Beatriz)
You've already done so much
So many lives you've changed
So many souls you've touched
And in the end, if it's only me you've saved
There's something that I've been dying to say
More than anything, more than anything
Need you to know I love you more than anything
More than anything
Finale
(Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft, Erika Henningsen, Jeremy Jordan, Amir Talai, Stephanie Beatriz, Blake Roman, Keith David, Christian Borle, Joel Perez, Kimiko Glenn & Krystina Alabado)
He did it for us, the ultimate sacrifice
He gave me his trust, and look how we pay the price
This bloodshed could have been avoided
If I convinced Heaven to work together
I took a hotel and I destroyed it
I know I could have done better
Better, instead of letting you down
Come on little lady, why the frown?
In the last ten-thousand years
You're the first one to change this town
You can do this, now I know it
For your story has just begun
You can't quit now, hell, you owe it
There's still damage to be undone
You've changed my mind, you've touched their hearts
From the good and souls gone bad
The stage is wrecked, the crowd is gone
But by God, Charlie!
The show, it must go on
We can do this, we can build it
Best hotel that you've ever seen
Twice the bedrooms, we can fill it
With more sinners than you can dream
It starts with you
You know it's true
Fulfill your destiny
So long as I've got all of you with me
To build a hotel, I think we need some brick and lumber
Good thing we're in Hell
Check out this little magic number
Start with foundation
Remedial creation for me
It's as easy as can be!
No time for cryin', we've got a lot of work to do and
We gotta try and make the best of what's in ruins
New coat of paint!
New lights across the marquee
With a little sorcery
After the battle, masterless cattle
Overlords hanging by a thread
With a bit of bravado, maybe tomorrow
We'll be atop the heap
While the rest of Hell's pissing
Alastor's missing
Fled with his tail between his legs
Nature abhors a power vacuum
That leaves room for you and me
The future of Hell belongs to the Vees
This place reeks of death, there's a chill in the air
And I barely escaped being killed by a hair
"Great Alastor, altruist, died for his friends"
Sorry to disappoint, that is not where this ends
I'm hungry for freedom like never before
The constraints of my deal surely have a backdoor
Once I figure out how to unclip my wings
Guess who will be pulling all the strings?
We can do this (we can do this)
We'll be better (we'll be better)
Though redemption may take a while (though it may take a while)
Wayward sinners clear their ledger
And we're doing it with a smile
Al!
Oh, this guy
We'll maje a difference, wait and see
We're gonna do this, you and me
And then tomorrow, it will be a f*ckin' happy day in Hell
