Stop the Press Lyrics > Gutenberg! The Musical!

[BUD (as Monk), spoken]
Poor, poor Helvetica!

(singing)

You’ve made wine
Probably ‘bout a million times
You dumb German wench
You fool
He’s gone
What is?that?you’re stompin’ on?
Let?me take a guess
There’s grape juice?on your dress
Isn’t it time to stop the press?

[DOUG (as Helvetica), spoken]
You mean...?destroy?his?printing press?

[BUD (as Monk), spoken]
That’s right,?Helvetica!
The only thing?standing between you and Gutenberg
Is that there printing press!

(singing)

Stop the press!
You gotta stop the press
Or the press will stop you!
Stop the press!
You can get him back
If you give it a chop!
You stomped his grapes for wine
Now stomp for Monk this time!
It’s time to stop the-

[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
Please don’t shout!
I’m in this bucket; I’ll get out
If I smash his press
He’ll cry
And I...

[BUD (as Monk)]
..will be right there to dry his eyes

[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
I’ll feel his caress!

[BUD (as Monk), spoken]
Yes!

[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
Right here on my breasts!

[BUD (as Monk), spoken]
There ya go!

[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
Maybe it’s time to stop the press!

[BUD (as Monk)]
Stop the press!
You can stop the press
With a simple pencil!
Stop the press!
[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
I know I’m gonna do it
But I’m feeling tense
Will Gutenberg be mad?

[BUD (as Monk), spoken]
No!

[DOUG (as Helvetica)]
Will Gutenberg be glad?
