Once I was a selfish fool who never understood
Never looked inside myself, though on the outside, I looked good!
Then we met and you made me the man I am today
Tracy, I'm in love with you, no matter what you weigh, 'cause
Without love, life is like the seasons with no summer
Without love, life is rock 'n' roll without a drummer
Tracy, I'll be yours forever 'cause I never wanna be without love
Tracy, never set me free, no, I ain't lyin'
Never set me free, Tracy, no, no, no
[TRACY]
Once I was a simple girl, then stardom came to me
But I was still a nothing, though a thousand fans may disagree
[ENSEMBLE]
Tracy!
[TRACY]
Fame was just a prison, signing autographs a bore
I didn't have a clue 'til you came banging on my door
Now without love, life is like my dad without his bromo
Without love, life is making out withto Perry Como
Darling, I'll be yours forever 'cause I never wanna be without love
So darling, throw away the key, I'm yours forever
Throw away the key, yeah, yeah, yeah
[SEAWEED]
Living in the ghetto, black is everywhere ya go
Who'd've thought I'd love a girl with skin as white as winter's snow?
[PENNY]
In my ivory tower, life was just a hostess snack
But now I've tasted chocolate and I'm never going back
[PENNY & SEAWEED]
'Cause without love
[SEAWEED]
Life is like a beat that you can't follow
[PENNY & SEAWEED]
Without love
[PENNY]
Life is Doris Day at the Apollo
[PENNY & SEAWEED]
Darling, I'll be yours forever
'Cause I never wanna be
[PENNY]
Without love
[SEAWEED]
So darling, never set me free
[PENNY & SEAWEED]
I'm yours forever, never set me free, no, no, no

If you're locked up in this prison, Trace, I don't know what I'll do
[TRACY]
Link, I've got to break out, so that I can get my hands on you
[SEAWEED]
And girl, if I can't touch you now, I'm gonna lose control
[PENNY]
Seaweed, you're my black white knight, I've found my blue-eyed soul
[ALL]
Sweet freedom is our goal
[LINK]
Trace, I wanna kiss ya!
[TRACY]
Then I can't wait for parole!
[ENSEMBLE]
'Cause without love
[SEAWEED]
Life is like a prom that won't invite us
[ENSEMBLE]
'Cause without love
[LINK]
It's like getting my big break and laryngitis
[ENSEMBLE]
'Cause without love
[PENNY]
Life's a '45' when you can't buy it without love
[ENSEMBLE]
'Cause without love
[TRACY]
Life is like my mother on a diet!
[ALL]
Like a week that's only Mondays
Only ice cream, never sundaes
Like a circle with no center
Like a door marked, 'Do Not Enter'
Darling, I'll be yours forever, 'cause I never wanna be without love
[PENNY]
Yes, now you've captured me
[ENSEMBLE]
Without love
[TRACY & SEAWEED]
I surrender happily
[ENSEMBLE]
Without love
[PENNY]
Oh Seaweed, never set me free, no, no, no
[TRACY & LINK]
No, I ain't lyin'
[PENNY & SEAWEED]
Never set me free, no, no, no
[PENNY]
No, I don't wanna live without love, love, love
[ALL]
Darling, you had best believe me
Never leave me without love
Once I was a selfish fool who never understood
Never looked inside myself, though on the outside, I looked good!
Then we met and you made me the man I am today
Tracy, I'm in love with you, no matter what you weigh, 'cause
Without love, life is like the seasons with no summer
Without love, life is rock 'n' roll without a drummer
Tracy, I'll be yours forever 'cause I never wanna be without love
