*agh musical moms, always hit you in the feels.*

[clairelundin]

Your roll your eyes so hard, they're gonna *roll right off yer face*

[julietcairney]

"Is that my only Wow her voice is gorgeous

[wendygabuya]

the audience laughed at this but i really really feel the sadness and longing of this song... like how when we want to be loved and appreciated so bad we tend to lose ourselves in the process

[PhoenixJohnson]

Kerry Butler is supposed to be playing a bunch of adults but she sounds just as young as the teen characters in the show 😂

[Helena]

I love that this song got added, not only do they both sound great together but when it pops up in the show it's so unexpected and funny in the best way!

"Why couldn't it just be drugs?" Mrs George, Is Something Wrong With You ?

Thinking back to the musical Gretchen really was fragile. You’d think that she would have gained confidence and arrogance after becoming popular and friends with the most powerful girl in school but that’s absolutely wrong. One wrong move or comment and Gretchen becomes a mess. I seriously think that she had a traumatizing experience in her life because this behavior doesn’t look normal. Honestly, If Katy has pushed Gretchen to her limits I think that this musical would had ended in a much darker way. This is just my opinion please don’t kill me.

This song is perfect on itself but in the actual show is like
10x better because it literally comes OUT OF NOWHERE

[hwamoroll]

I love Gretchen so much I wanna hug Ashley

[KelseyNix]

[GRETCHEN]
What's wrong with me?
Different boss
Same old song

I try so hard
Is that what's wrong?
It's like all I do is plan
For joy I don't get to feel

I'm whoever you want
Is that my only appeal?
Who am I really?
Hmmm-mmm…

[MRS. GEORGE]
What's wrong with me?
Ask me for help, ask me for hugs
Girl stuff sucks

Why couldn't it just be drugs?
I try to give you love
I try to give you space
You roll your eyes so hard
They're gonna roll right off your face

[GRETCHEN & MRS. GEORGE]
What's wrong with me?
Why are you mad
When we fight?

[MRS. GEORGE]
Why can't I?

[GRETCHEN]
Why can't I?

[MRS. GEORGE]
Do anything right?
Someday, you'll have children too
And then baby, wait and see
You'll be worshiped for years
And then she'll turn three
And everything's…

[GRETCHEN & MRS. GEORGE]
Wrong with me
Hmmm-mmm

This song is actually amazing because in the show, it starts out of literally nowhere. Like, Cady is just randomly talking and then Gretchen suddenly starts singing, no introduction.

[ellie]

Honestly the mom’s part was literally soul crushing...😢

[julianawilliams]

“It’s like all I do is plan for joy I never get to feel.” What a powerful line that I definitely relate too.

[imangizmo]

Regina's mom: "why couldn't it just be drugs"
Me: *Thinks of Be More Chill*,
Also me: No you don't want it to be drugs...

[starr_catt]

I’m so glad they actually made a song for regina’s mom. Like we can actually see/hear how she really feels with Regina

[mira-wolx]

i like this version more because when cady walks away and gretchen continues and finishes cady comes back and is like "you coming?" and it makes me happy

[greekfreak]

If you kinda twist around the lyrics this could be about a mom blaming her daughter for everything.

[yee-raplantar-maximoff]

"Who am I really?"
For some reason this hits hard with me. I don't know why but it just does.

[aces_spades]

“Why are you mad”





Why you sad

When you can be


Glad
