There is no other drug reference in the show, so after listening to the recording numerous times, and seeing the show three times, I would say it is the emotional baggage (though Hanschen sings "Shoot up some you, and the you is some song").

Edit: Their junk is their crushes. Right? Or am I misinterpreting the question. Updated On: 7/14/07 at 03:52 PM

Well that line "Shoot up some you, and the you is some song," is kind of a drug reference type deal, but obviously the song is referring to their crushes.

"We all have our junk, and my junk is you." It's a metaphor. It's about crushes for the specific singer of that song, but obsession in general. It is a drug reference, in that they're comparing an obsession, or addiction, to a person with heroin.

You think it should have gone to "Jerry likes my corn"?

No, it should have gone to the last verse of "Another Winter In A Summer Town"

Yeah, I have to agree. I expected SA to win, so I wasn't really bugged, but hearing the lyrics a few more times, it's rather sickening. Some of them are just terrible.

why do Spring Awakening threads always turn into some sort of argument? Why does B3TA07 always start things? why is he ALWAYS on these boards?

just a little something to think about

Why are you?

well now that I've been so terribly emotionally owned, may I just say that I hardly ever spend more than 15 minutes on the boards? and more often than not go a day or so without coming here? but yes I'm sorry yes you're right that was definetly worthy of an oh snap.

My snaps are generally pretty sarcastic. But I'm glad I could hurt you to your very core. Makes my day.

If you're ever gonna quote a bad lyric from Spring Awakening...

"Uh huh uh huh uh huh well fine
Not like it's even worth the time"

...NOTHING touches that.


SondheimGeek: Is it slightly pathetic that you guys get to be Jedi bitches, and I'm Bitchy the Hutt?

Let's compare.

Tony Winning Lyrics:

The things that sucks – okay? – for me
A thousand bucks, I’m, like, scott free
And I mean, please…That’s all I need
Get real, Jose!
By now you know the score...

Non - Tony Winning Lyrics:


The summers over
But I'm still a girl
Covorting in my carnival crown
From blossom to blossom
I buzz like a bee
Then glance in the mirror
And who do I see
A middle aged woman inhabiting me
Because it's winter
In a summer town

The lyrics I was thinking of were:


Yesterday's dreams are faded bouquets
Roses that died on the vine
Yesterday seems
More real than today
It's difficult drawing the line

My season ended
A long time ago
But no one took the party tins down
The pink paper lanterns still twinkle away
My young navy hero
His tender embrace
That sapphire blue ocean
Oh, how can I face
Another winter
In a summer town
