original cast of love in hate nation – susannah’s song كلمات اغاني

[susannah]
my grandma gave me this yellow ukulele
brought it back from hawaii
summer 1958

four years later
and i’m pretty good at yellow ukulele
now my grandma’s dead
and hawaii is a state

so i thought it might be nice to take a vacation to hawaii
but i could not afford a ticket, so—

but i could not afford a ticket
so i took some pills instead

now my bags are packed
but i ain’t goin’ to hawaii
i’m going to juvie hall
to see about my head

oh, susannah
you’re gonna find a way
oh, susannah
to make it through the day
believe me when i say it’s
gonna be okay, it’s
gonna be okay, hey hey

oh, susannah
you’re gonna—

[dialogue]

and the state of things around here
just worsen by the hour
and by here i mean my bedroom
but america as well

i’m sweet sixteen, but lordy
i feel a little sour
’cause i’m too black to be indifferent
but too yellow to rebel

and in my chest that dread
begins to sprout
i make up songs in my head
to tune it out

and as i feel that lump form in my throat
i just sing myself a lullaby that i wrote

oh, susannah
you’re gonna find a way
oh, susannah
to make it through the day
believe me when i say it’s
gonna be okay, it’s
gonna be okay, hey hey

oh, susannah
you’re gonna find a way
oh, susannah
to make it through the day
believe me when i say it’s
gonna be okay, it’s
gonna be okay-ay-ay
