what i know now

Singer:beetlejuice original broadway cast

i was hot

i went to parties a lot

y'know?

i was driving lamborghinis

sipping super-dry martinis

in the tiniest bikinis on a yacht

but i was depressed

also completely obsessed

an unhappy beauty queen

who dreamed to be miss argentina

i had such low self-esteem

i was a mess

so i gave it all up for the netherworld

i've been here forever

girl

if i was more clever

girl

i would've stuck it out

knowing what life's about

pain and joy and suffering

failing but recovering

i'll tell you another thing

everyone here is alone

so if you are breathing

go home!

if i knew then

what i know now

i would have looked within and let love in somehow

if i only knew

the truth back then

i wouldn't have had my little accident"
