[Lyric] Inside of the Jar (Original Broadway Cast of War Paint)

[WOMAN 1, spoken]
You see?! I told you so!

[WOMAN 2, spoken]
Heavens! A small label with such large words!

[WOMAN 1]
Right in print, plain as day
As I told you verbatim

[WOMAN 2]
“Triclosan”

[WOMAN 3]
“Parabens”

[WOMAN 2]
“Carmine dye”

[WOMAN 3]
“Petrolatum”
[WOMAN 2]
In a pink pink frilly box
It’s a Trojan horse of toxins

[WOMEN]
What they put inside of the jar (The jar)

[WOMAN 4]
In a cream, I’m afraid
There is white powered borax
That’s the poison my maid
Puts on bugs in the floor cracks

[WOMAN 1]
On my face, cockroach dust

[WOMEN]
On the customers who trusted
What they put inside of the jar
(Inside of the jar)

They betrayed us
Their devoted clientele
How they paid us

[WOMAN 1]
Wolves in pink wool Chanеl!
[WOMEN]
Deceit pays well!

[WOMAN 3]
Whilе they say that a book
Can’t be judged by its cover

[WOMAN 4]
When you pay for a look
You get gypped, you discover

[WOMAN 5]
From now on, me regime
Will be baby oil and cold cream

[WOMAN 6]
And a good old ivory bar

[WOMAN 2, spoken]
To think I trusted her with my face!

[WOMEN]
How it stings!
How it seers!
How they used us, abused us for years!
(Preyed on our fears!)
Bitter tears inside of the jar!
