Shine Like The Sun9 to 5 Original Broadway Cast

[VIOLET, spoken]
They say we always get what we deserve
Whether good bad or indifferent

[DORALEE, spoken]
That's what I've always heard

[JUDY]
No good deed goes unpunished;
But the bad deeds you have done
Stretched out, I'm sure that they would reach from here to kingdom come

[VIOLET]
We think it's time you get what you deserve
You've got no true compassion
But you've really got some nerve

[DORALEE, JUDY & VIOLET]
And you've hurt every one of us

[JUDY]
In different kinds of ways

[DORALEE]
What goes around, comes around;

[DORALEE, JUDY & VIOLET]
And each dog has its day

[DORALEE]
Under this hair is a brain!
But not that you even care
And you only see tits, but get this:
There's a heart under there
A heart that you've broken and ripped out
More times than a few
Well, ol' Double D Doralee's
Gonna stick it to you!
Shine like the sun

I'm gonna shine like the sun
When these clouds roll away from my door
When it's all said and done
I won't be at your mercy no more
I will prove my own worth
Heal the damage and hurt
That's been done
When the crying's all done
I'm gonna shine like the sun!

[JUDY]
I've had enough hurt in my life
And you've been adding to it
But I'm in control now and
Just like before I'll get through it
You've hurt and embarrassed me
Proven you don't give a damn
I'm tired of men like you
Who make me feel less than I am


[JUDY]
I'm gonna shine like the sun
When these clouds roll away from my door
 
When it's all said and done
I won't be at your mercy no more
 
 
I'm taking what's mine
I'll be fine
I am second to none
 
And when the losing's all done
I'm gonna shine like the sun
Shine like the sun...
[ENSEMBLE]
I'm gonna shine like the sun
Shine
...shine like the sun
Shine
When it's all said and done
...shine like the sun
We're gonna shine like the sun
I'm taking what's mine
 
Oooh second to none
 
And when the losing's all done
I'm gonna shine
Shine like the sun
Like the sun

[VIOLET]
I've been down on my luck;
I've been shadowed with trouble and sorrow
But I'm not giving up 'cause I know there's always tomorrow
There are no guarantees
Life is always a hit or a miss
But I truly believe I won't always be feeling like this
[ENSEMBLE, JUDY & DORALEE]
 
...Oooo sorrow
 
...Oooo tomorrow
 
...or a miss
...truly believe...

[VIOLET, JUDY & DORALEE]
I'm gonna shine like the sun
When these clouds roll away from my door
I won't crawl, I can run
I won't be at your mercy no more
We'll be singing it loud, be so proud
That we finally won
[ENSEMBLE]
I'm gonna shine like the sun
...Shine
 
I won't crawl, I can run
...Shine
We'll be singing it loud
 
...Finally won
[ALL]
And when the losing's all done
We're gonna shine, shine, shine
Shine like the sun
Shine, shine, like the sun!

When the crying's all done
When the lying's all done
When the trying's all done
There'll be nothing but sun!

When it's all said and done
We're gonna shine, shine like the sun
Shine like the sun!
