Prologue / Little Shop of Horrors

On the twenty-first day of the month of September
In an early year of a decade not too long before our own
The human race suddenly encountered a deadly
Threat to its very existence
And this terrifying enemy surfaced
As such enemies often do
In the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places

[Crystal, Ronette and Chiffon]
Little shop, little shoppa horrors
Little shop, little shoppa terror
Call a cop. Little shoppa horrors
No, oh, oh, no-oh!

Little shop, little shoppa horrors
Bop sh'bop, little shoppa terror
Watch 'em drop! Little shoppa horrors
No, oh, oh, no-oh!

Shing-a-ling, what a creepy thing
To be happening!
Shang-a-lang, feel the sturm
And drang in the air

Sha-la-la, stop right where you are
Don't you move a thing
You better (tellin' you, you better)
Tell your mama somethin's gonna
Get her
She better (ev'rybody better)
Beware!

Little shop, little shoppa horrors
Bop sh-bop, you'll never stop
The terror
Little shop, little shoppa horrors
No, oh, oh, no, oh, oh, no, oh, oh, no!
