Pulled- The Addams Family Musical

I don't have a sunny disposition, I'm not known for being too amused
My demeanor's locked in one position, see my face? I'm enthused
Suddenly, however, I've been puzzled, bunny rabbits make me want to cry
All my inhibitions have been muzzled, and I think I know why

I'm being pulled in a new direction
But I think I like it, I think I like it
I'm being pulled in a new direction
Through my painful pursuit, somehow birdies took root
All the things I detested impossibly cute
God! What do I do?

Mother always said be kind to strangers
But she doesn't know what they destroy
I can feel the clear and present dangers
When she learns that the boy

Has got me pulled in a new direction
But I think I like it, I think I like it
I'm being pulled in a new direction
But this feeling, I know, is impossible
So I'll confide that I've tried but I can't let it go
It's disgustingly true
Pulled, pulled, pulled!

Puppy dogs with droopy faces, unicorns with dancing mice
Sunrise in wide open spaces, Disney World- I'll go there twice!
Butterflies and picnic lunches, bunches of chrysanthemums
Lollipops and pillow fights and Christmas eve, sugar plums!
String quartets and Chia pets and afternoon banana splits
Angels watching as I sleep and Liberace's Greatest Hits

Have got me pulled in a new direction
If they keep insisting, I'll stop resisting
Just watch me pulled in a new direction
I should stay in the dark, not obey every spark
But the boy has a bite, better far than his bark
And you bet I'll bite too, do what's truly taboo
As I'm pulled in a new direction
