[lizzie]

[alice, spoken]
lizzie spoke of trouble with her stepmother. that mrs. borden thought so-and-so. but the whole thing was, as far as i could see, that one’s own mother might’ve had more influence over the father. it was the father more than the mother. they were young girls. but young girls cannot go and do and have

[lizzie]

but i said no
i’m moving uptown honey

but i’m down here in the big house

[emma, spoken]
i have no recollection of anything of that kind. no sir, i don’t seem to remember it. i don’t remember what you asked me. i don’t remember the question, nor the answer. i can only say i don’t remember giving it. i don’t know whether i did or not, i can’t tell you. i don’t know. i was in fairhaven

[lizzie]
i got my dream team workin’
on my defense
it cost me a bl–dy fortune
but i spared no expense
’cause let me tell you
losing is not a game i play

[alice, spoken]
about seven o’clock on the evening of wednesday, august third i was waiting for miss lizzie borden. but when she came she said-

[bridget, spoken]
she was on her way to benson’s pharmacy for prussic acid. to clean a stain

[alice, spoken]
she said “mr. and mrs. borden were awfully sick last night. we were all sick, all but maggie.”

[bridget, spoken]
i had a sick headache and i was sick to my stomach

[alice, spoken]
and she said mrs. borden even told the doctor she thought she had been poisoned. i asked her who would do something like that and she didn’t know. she said “i can’t sleep at night. i’m that afraid somebody will do something.”

{emma & lizzie]
now that you mention it i
can’t stand the night
i sit here in the darkness
waiting for the light
[lizzie]
eleven days in taunton waiting
for the break of day
ten more days in this hole
then i’ll fly away

they love me in the jailhouse
they love me in the street
they love me in the courtroom
yeah i know i got ’em beat
i got nine more days in taunton

[alice]
this
this
this is not love
i don’t know what it is

[lizzie]
when this whole thing is over
i’ve got to get away

[emma, spoken]
well, i don’t know how to describe it to you

[bridget, spoken]
it was not a calico dress

[alice, spoken]
it was a cheap cotton bedford cord

[emma, spoken]
an american cloth

[alice, spoken]
all cotton

[emma, spoken]
i think one part of it was black or very-

[bridget, spoken]
light blue

[alice, spoken]
with a small dark figure

[bridget, spoken]
a sprig

[alice, spoken]
i did not suggest to miss lizzie borden that she change her dress

[emma, spoken]
i think she did

[alice, spoken]
i saw no blood on that dress. not a drop

[lizzie]
can we just drop the dress talk
the subject’s getting dull

[lizzie & bridget]
gonna buy myself a brand new dress
gonna buy a whole d-mn closet full
’cause i got plenty of money
girl, i just got paid

[lizzie]
four more days in taunton
then i’ll fly away

[bridget, spoken]
after mrs. borden told me to wash the windows, i didn’t see her anymore until i found her dead on the upstairs. i don’t remember to have heard a sound of anyone about the house until mr. borden came to the door. as i unlocked it i said “oh, p’shaw” and miss lizzie laughed at the top of the stairs

[lizzie]
you say that i’m not weeping
that i’m not dressed in black
call me a yankee clytemnestra
well imagine that
i’ve done my share of crying
lord my dues is paid
i got three more days in taunton
then i’ll fly away

[alice, spoken]
her sister turned and said “what are you going to do?”

{emma, spoken]
i swear i didn’t say it. the reason i say i didn’t say so is because i didn’t say so

[alice, spoken]
and lizzie said “i’m going to burn this old thing up.”

[emma, spoken]
there was nothing of that kind said

[alice, spoken]
it was covered in-

[emma, spoken]
paint! it was soiled, just as any dress would get soiled and i said “why don’t you?” or something like that. i can’t tell the exact words

[alice, spoken]
i am quite sure i left the room and told the officer that i saw miss lizzie borden burn that dress

[alice & lizzie]
turn of the century
turn of the screw
turn of the tables
between me and you

[lizzie]
got two more days in taunton
until my judgement day
one more day in taunton
then i’ll fly away

they take me to the courthouse
the verdict’s coming in
it only took an hour
for those white-haired gentlemen
to put this all behind me
oh, today’s the day
when the old man says

[voiceover]
“not guilty!”

[lizzie]
watch me fly away

[emma]
maybe someday

[lizzie]
i’ll walk in the open

[emma]
maybe someday

[lizzie]
we’ll all forget

[emma]
maybe someday

[lizzie]
they won’t whisper point and stare
but my secret’s safe now

[emma]
yes your secret’s safe

[emma & lizzie]
our secret’s safe now
maybe someday
we’ll tell the world
maybe someday
we’ll make them understand

[alice]
maybe someday
you’ll come back to me

[emma]
but your secret’s safe now

[alice & bridget]
her secret’s safe now

[emma]
our secret’s safe

[bridget]
our secret’s safe

[alice]
our secret’s safe

[alice, bridget, emma]
now
