Who Would've Thought
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Paula
Who would've thought
This subhuman sublet
With an ego the size
Of the national debt
Would live up to his hype
But he isn't my type
Elliot
Who would've thought
I'd subdue and disarm
Her disdain and contempt
With the force of my charm
She'd resist if she could
I must really be good
Paula & elliot
Why couldn't i see it coming?
Why didn't i have a clue?
I suddenly fell like humming
Paula
And i must put a stop to this soon
Elliot
I can feel that she's changing her tune
Paula
Who would believe
I'm enough of a fool
To be taking the plunge
After draining the pool
We may learn to be friends
But that's right where it ends
Paula & elliot
All that i know
Is that just down the hall
In the very next room
Through this paper-thin wall
There's a creature i hated
I can't wait to wake up and see
Who would have thought that
Paula
This nightmare
Elliot
This wonderful blunder
Paula & elliot
Would happen to me
Who would have thought?
Lucy & cynthia
Who would have thought it
Would take them so long
Cynthia
I was sure of last week
Lucy
And last weekend was wrong
Melanie
This is totally cool
Lucy & cynthia
That's cause you won the pool
Melanie
When do you think
They will cut to the chase
Lucy
Well, his odds have improved
Cynthia
Since he got to first base
Three girls
And he's coming on strong
So it shouldn't be long
This couldn't be more outstanding
We hang on their every move
Melanie
It's very much like "knots landing"
Cynthia & melanie
Will he charm her right into his palm?
Lucy
If he doesn't she isn't my mom
Three girls
What happens next
Could be anyone's call
Cynthia & melanie
We're depending on you
With your ear to the wall
Three girls
To turn into a spy to be of those sly little elves
Till we're grown, on your own, and are prone to find
Romance
Ourselves
Who would've thought?
