Scene 1 - Beautiful (Veronica & Chorus)

Veronica: September 1st, 1989. Dear Diary: I believe I’m a good person. You know, I think that
there’s good in everyone. But, uh, here we are. First day of senior year! And, uh, I look around at
these kids that I’ve known all my life and I ask myself, “What happened?”
Students: Freak! Slut! Burnout! Bug eyes! Poser! Lard ass!
We were so tiny, happy, and shiny, Playing tag and getting chased.
Students: Freak! Slut! Loser! Short bus!
Singing and clapping, Laughing and napping, Baking cookies, eating paste.
Students: Bull dike! Stuck up! Hunchback!
Then we got bigger. That was the trigger, Like the Huns invading Rome.
Welcome to my school- This ain’t no high school, This is the Thunder Dome.
Hold your breath and count the days, We’re graduating soon.
Students: White trash!
College will be paradise, If I’m not dead by June!
But I know, I know, Life can be beautiful.
I pray, I pray, For a better way.
If we changed back then, We could change again. We could be beautiful……Just not today.
Students: Freak! Slut! Cripple! Homo! Homo! Homo!
Things will get better, As soon as my letter, Comes from Harvard, Duke, or Brown.
Away from this coma, Take my diploma, Then I can blow this town.
Dream of ivy-covered walls, And smoky French cafés.
Fight the urge to strike a match, And set this dump ablaze!

Veronica: Ram Sweeney. Third year as linebacker, and eighth year of smacking lunch trays and
being a huge idiot!

Ram: What did you say to me, skank?

Veronica: Gah! Nothing!

But I know, I know, Life can be- beautiful. I pray, I pray, For a better way.
We were kind before, We can be kind once more. We can be beautiful.

Veronica: Hey, Martha!

Martha: Hey.

Veronica: Martha Dunnstock, my best friend since diapers.

Martha: We on for movie night?

Veronica: Yeah! You’re on Jiffy Pop detail.

Martha: I rented “The Princess Bride”.

Veronica: Haha, again? Wait, don’t you have it memorised by now?

Martha: What can I say? I’m a sucker for a happy ending.

Kurt: Martha Dumptruck! Wide load! Ha! Haha!

Veronica: Kurt Kelly, quarterback. He is the smartest guy on the football team!
Which is kind of like being the tallest dwarf.

Kurt: I’m sorry, are you actually talking to me?

Veronica: Yes, I am. I want to know what gives you the right to pick on my friend! You’re a high
school has-been waiting to happen, a future gas station attendant.

Kurt: You have a zit right there.

Veronica: Dear Diary: Why?

Solo 1: Why do they hate me?
Solo 2: Why don’t I fight back?
Kurt: Why do I act like such a creep?

Veronica: Why?
Martha: Why won’t he date me?
Ram: Why did I hit him?
Students: Why do I cry myself to sleep?
Veronica: Why?
Students: Somebody hug me. Somebody fix me. Somebody save me. Send me a sign, God
Get me some cold beer. Something to live for…

Heather Chandler, Heather Duke, and Heather McNamara enter.

Oh-oh, Heather, Heather, and Heather.

Veronica: And then there’s the Heathers. They float above it all.
Students: I love Heather, Heather, and Heather. I hate Heather, Heather, and Heather.
Veronica: Heather McNamara, head cheerleader. Her dad is loaded, he sells engagement rings.
Students: I want Heather, Heather, and Heather.
Veronica: Heather Duke, runs the yearbook. No discernible personality, but her mom did pay for
implants.
Students: I need Heather, Heather, and Heather.
Veronica: And Heather Chandler, the almighty. She is a mythic bitch. They’re solid Teflon, never
bothered, never harassed. I would give anything to be like that.

Solo 1: I’d like to be their boyfriend. Students: That would be beautiful.

Solo 2: If I sat at their table, guys would notice me. Students: So beautiful.
Martha: I’d like them to be nicer. Students: That would be beautiful.

Ms. Fleming: Ah, Heather and Heather…and Heather. Perhaps you didn’t hear the bell you’re late
for class.

Heather C: Heather wasn’t feeling well. We’re helping her.

Ms. Fleming: Not without a hall pass you’re not. Week’s detention.

Veronica: Um, actually, Ms. Fleming, all four of us are out on a hall pass for yearbook committee.

Ms. Fleming: I see you’re all listed. Hurry up. Get where you’re going.

Heather C: This is an excellent forgery. Who are you?

Veronica: Uh, Veronica. Sawyer. I crave a boon.

Heather C: What boon?

Veronica: Um, let me sit at your table at lunch, just once. No talking necessary. If people think that
you guys tolerate me, then they’ll leave me alone.

The Heathers laugh.

Veronica: Before you answer, I also do report cards, permission slips, and absence notes.

Heather D: How about prescriptions?

Heather C: Shut up, Heather!

Heather D:Sorry, Heather.

Heather C: For a greasy little nobody, you do have good bone structure.

Heather M: And a symmetrical face. If I took a meat cleaver down the centre of your skull, I’d have
matching halves. That’s very important.

Heather D: Of course, you could stand to lose a few pounds.

Heather C: And, you know, you know, you know, This could be beautiful.
Mascara, maybe some lip gloss, And we’re on our way.
Get this girl some blush, And, Heather, I need your brush. Let’s make her beautiful.

Heather D: Let’s make her beautiful.

Heather M: Let’s make her beautiful.
Heather C: Make her beautiful! Okay?
Veronica: Okay!

Kurt: Out of my way, geek.

Solo 1: I don’t want trouble.

Ram: You’re gonna die at 3 PM.

Solo 2: Don’t you dare touch me!

Solo 1: Get away, pervert!

Solo 2: What did I ever do to them?

Students: Who could survive this? I can’t escape this! I think I’m dying!

Ms. Fleming: Who’s that with Heather?

Students: Woah.

Heather, Heather, Heather…

Solo 1: …And someone!

Students: Heather, Heather, Heather…Kurt…And a babe!

Students: Heather, Heather, Heather… Martha…Veronica?
Students: Veronica, Veronica, Veronica!

And you know, you know, you know, Life can be beautiful.
You hope, you dream, you pray, And you get your way!
Ask me how it feels, Lookin’ like hell on wheels. My God, it’s beautiful.
I might be beautiful. And when you’re beautiful… It’s a beautiful freakin’ day!

Students: Heather, Heather, Heather, Veronica! Heather, Heather, Heather, Veronica!

Veronica! Veronica! Veronica! Veronica!

Scene 2 - Veronica, Martha, The Heathers, Kurt, Ram

Veronica: Dear Diary: It’s been 3 weeks since I became friends with the Heathers.
Actually, friends isn’t the right word. It’s more like the Heathers are people I work with. And our job
is being popular and stuff.

Martha: Hey, Veronica.

Veronica: Hey!

Martha: You’re looking really beautiful these days.

Veronica: Aw, thank you. But it’s still the same me underneath.

Martha: Are you sure?

Veronica: Oh, look I’m- I’m really sorry that I flaked on you last week. I’ve just- I’ve had a lot going
on.

Martha: I get that. You’re with the Heathers now. It’s exciting.

Veronica: It’s whatever, but we’ll hang out soon, I promise.

Heather D: Veronica! Heather requires your presence now!

Veronica: How very.

Heather C: Veronica. I need a forgery written in Ram Sweeney’s handwriting.

Hello, beautiful. I’ve been watching you and thinking about us in the old days. I hope you can come
to my homecoming party this weekend. I miss you, Ram. Oh, put an “xo” after the signature.

Veronica: What’s this for anyway?

Heather C: You remember how Ram used to hang with Martha Dumptruck?

Veronica: Well, yeah, in kindergarten. We all did.

Heather D: We all didn’t kiss on the kickball field.

Heather M: Oh my god that’s right, I remember. Ram kissed Martha Dumptruck. It was disgusting.

Heather C: Perfect. Ram!

Kurt: What do you think Heather wants

Ram: My body.

Kurt: Hell yeah!

Heather C: Be a sweetie and give this note to Martha Dumptruck for me.

Veronica: What? No!

Ram: Since when do you talk to that lard ass?

Veronica: Please don’t do this, okay? Not to Martha. Martha has had a thing for Ram for like 12
years now, okay? This- this would kill her.

Song 2 - Candy Store (The Heathers and Chorus)

Are we gonna have a problem? You got a bone to pick?

You’ve come so far, why now are you taking the mick?
I’d normally slap your face off,
And everyone here could watch.
But I’m feeling nice.
Here’s some advice.
Listen up, biotch!

I like lookin’ hot, Buying stuff they cannot.

I like drinkin’ hard, Maxin’ Dad’s credit card!
I like skippin’ gym, Scaring her, Kissing him.
I like killer clothes, Kickin’ nerds in the nose!

If you lack the balls, You can go play dolls, Let your mommy fix you a snack.
Or you could come smoke, Pound some rum and coke, In my Porsha with the quarterback!
Woah! Woah! Woah!

Honey, whatchu waitin’ for?

Welcome to my candy store.
It’s time for you to prove, you’re not a loser anymore.
Then step into my candy store.

Scene 3 - Martha, Veronica, JD, Kurt, Ram, The Heathers

Martha: Veronica, look! Ram invited me to his homecoming party. See, I told you there was still
something there! This proves he’s been thinking about me.

Veronica: Colour me stoked.

Martha: I’m so happy!

JD:You shouldn’t have bowed down to the swatch dogs and diet-coke-heads. They’re going to
crush that girl.

Veronica: I’m sorry, what?

JD: Clearly, you’ve got a soul. You just gotta work harder on keeping it clean. ‘We are all born
marked for evil.’

Veronica: Um, okay. Don’t just quote Baudelaire at me and then walk away, excuse me.
I didn’t catch your name.

JD: I didn’t throw it.

Kurt: Who’s that guy in the jacket think he is anyways, Bo Diddley?

Ram: Veronica’s into his act, no doubt.

Kurt: Let’s kick his ass!

Ram: No, we’re seniors, man, we’re too old for this.

Kurt: Hey, sweetheart! What did your boyfriend say when you told him you were moving to
Sherwood, Ohio? Huh?

Ram: My buddy Kurt just asked you a question.

Kurt: Hey, Ram, doesn’t the cafeteria have a “no fags allowed” rule?

JD: I don’t know what your problem is but I bet it’s really hard for you to pronounce.

Heather C: Your mouth was hanging wide open.

Veronica: No it wasn’t.

Heather D: I mean seriously Veronica, drool much?

Veronica: It was nothing like that.

Heather M: Come on admit it, you like the new kid.

Veronica: I don’t even know his name.

Scene 4 - Veronica and JD

JD: Greetings and salutations. You want a Slurpee with that?

Veronica: No, but if you’re nice, I’ll let you buy me a Big Gulp.

JD: That’s like going to Micky D’s and ordering a salad. Slurpee’s the signature dish of the house.
Did you say cherry or lime?

Veronica: I said Big Gulp. I’m Veronica, by the way. Are you ever gonna tell me your name?

JD: I’ll end the suspense. Jason Dean, JD, for short.

Veronica: So, JD. That thing you pulled in the caf’ was pretty severe.

JD: Well, the extreme always seems to make an impression.

Veronica: So, what’s a Baudelaire-quoting, badass like you doing in Sherwood, Ohio?

JD: My dad’s work. He owns a deconstruction company.

Veronica: …Deconstruction?

JD: Well, the old man seems to enjoy tearing things down. You seen the commercial? “My name’s
Big Bud Dean, if it’s in the way, I’ll make your day.”

Veronica: Then he pushes the plunger and the screen blows up? …That’s your dad?

JD: In all his semipsychotic glory.

Veronica: Ya know, everyone’s life has got static. For example, I don’t really like my friends-

JD: I don’t really like your friends either. Bag the party- hang here.

Veronica: At the 7-Eleven? Swanky first date.

JD: Hey… I love this place.

Veronica: No offence, but… why?

Song 3 Freeze your brain - JD Solo

I've been through ten high schools, they start to get blurry.
No point planting roots, 'Cause you're gone in a hurry.
My dad keeps two suitcases packed in the den, so it's only a matter of when.
I don't learn their names, don't bother with faces.
All I can trust is this concrete oasis.
Seems every time I'm about to despair, there's a 7-Eleven right there.
Each store is the same, from Las Vegas to Boston,
Linoleum aisles that I love to get lost in.
I pray at my altar of slush- Yeah, I live for that sweet frozen rush...
Freeze your brain. Suck on that straw, Get lost in the pain.
Happiness comes, When everything numbs.
Who needs cocaine?
Freeze your brain. Freeze your brain...

Scene 5 - The Heathers, Veronica, Ram, Martha, Chorus

Heather C: Martha Dumptruck, in the flesh.

Heather D: Here comes the Cootie Squad. We should….

Heather C: Shut up, Heather!

Heather D: Sorry, Heather.

Heather M: Look who's with her! Oh my God!

Veronica: I can't believe you actually came.

Martha: It’s exciting, right? Oh, excuse me, I want to say hello to Ram. I brought sparkling cider!

Heather C: Showing up here took some guts, Time to rip them out.

Heather D: Well, who's this pig remind you of?

Heather M: Especially the snout.

Heather C: Ha!

Martha: Hi, Ram. Uh, I wasn't gonna come, but since you took the time to write that sweet note...

Ram: What note? Why do you gotta be so weird all the time? People wouldn't hate you so much if
you acted normal.

Heather C: Okay, Westerburgers, it’s time to celebrate our upcoming victory over the Razorbacks
by whacking apart their mascot.

Heather M: We need a volunteer to take the first swing at the piñata.

Heather C: Martha Dunnstock. I think you should do the honours.

Martha: I don’t really know this game…

Heather D: Let’s show this girl some Westerburg spirit!

Heather M: Martha!

All: Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha!

Veronica: Give it to me! What is your damage, Heather? If you want this thing, just swim for it.

Martha: What’s going on?

Veronica: Just go home, okay? I’ll explain it to you later.

Martha: No, I was going to-

Veronica: Listen to me. Listen, just go, okay? Go. Well, we gave it a shot, okay? I’m resigning my
position from the lip gloss Gestapo. I’m going back to civilian life.

Heather C: You don’t get to be a nobody. Come Monday, you’re an ex-somebody.

Heather D: Not even the losers will touch you now.

Heather M: Transfer to Washington, transfer to Jefferson.

Heather D: No one at Westerburg’s gonna let you play their reindeer games!

Heather C: I raised you up from nothing! And what’s my thanks?!

Heather M: I know who I’m eating lunch with on Monday… Do you?

Song 4 Dead girl walking - Solo Veronica

The demon queen of high school has decreed it.

She says Monday, 8AM, I will be deleted.
They'll hunt me down in study hall,
Stuff and mount me on the wall.
Thirty hours to live-
How shall I spend them?
I don't have to stay and die like cattle.
I could change my name and ride up to Seattle.
But I don't own a motorbike…
Wait. Here's an option that I like-
Spend these thirty hours gettin' freaky! Yeah!
I need it hard, I'm a dead girl walkin'.
I'm in your yard, I'm a dead girl walkin'.
Before they punch my clock,
I'm snappin' off your window lock.
Got no time to knock,
I'm a dead girl walking!

Scene 6 - Veronica JD and Heather C

JD: What’s the rush?

Veronica: I have to get to Heather’s house.

JD: What? You told me you were done with Heather.

Veronica: Yeah, and it was a sweet fantasy- a world without Heather. A world where everyone is
free. Now it’s morning. I have to go kiss her aerobicized ass.

Heather C: Hope you brought kneepads, bitch! Fix me a Prairie Oyster and I’ll think about it.

JD: Don’t forget the Worcestershire.

Veronica: You know your hangover cures.

JD: My dad trained me well.

Veronica: Oh hey. Here’s my revenge. I’m gonna drop a flemglobber in her Prairie Oyster and she’ll
never know. Ready?

JD: I’m more of a no-rust-buildup man myself.

Veronica: Oh, okay. Don’t be an idiot. That stuff would kill her.

JD: Thus, ending her hangover! I say, we go with big blue.

Veronica: You can’t just go- uh. Besides, she would never drink something that looks like that.

JD: Right… We use a mug. That way, she’ll have no idea what she’s drinking.

Veronica: Forget it.

JD: Chicken. Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk.

Veronica: No, you’re not funny.

JD: Okay. I’m sorry.

Heather C: Prairie Oyster! Chop, chop!

JD: Veronica, you-

Veronica: What?

JD: Nevermind.

Veronica: Okay… Good morning, Heather.

Heather C: Aw, Veronica… and Jesse James, quelle surprise. Well, let’s get to it. Beg.

Veronica: Okay, um. I think that last night we both said a lot things that we didn’t mean.

Heather C: I’d actually prefer if you did this on your knees. In front of your boy toy here.

Veronica: Um. I’m really sorry-

Heather D: Is she coming?

Heather M: Well she said she was.

Heather D: Good.

Heather M: I kind of feel bad about dragging her out here.

Heather D: Nobody cares about your feelings, this mud is going to ruin my shoes.

Heather M: I’m not sure it is mud.

Veronica: What are you two doing in the middle of a cow pasture?

Heather D: We’re stranded.

Heather M: We thought we were headed towards the cemetery to pour a jug of thunderbirds on
Heather’s grave. You know from her homies.

Veronica: So what is it? You need a ride home?

Heather D: Not exactly.

Heather M: We made a deal with the guys.

Veronica: Deal? What kind of deal?

Heather D: If we got you to show up here, Kurt promised to give us his car keys so Heather and I
could go home.

Veronica: Why would they want me here?

Heather M: Come on Veronica, I’ve seen you looking at Kurt. You think he’s cute right?

Veronica: No

Heather D: And Ram also, very cute!

Veronica: Dear Diary: Close call last night. Uh, the only person at Westerburg who could actually
control Kurt and Ram was Heather Chandler. And she is dead.

Heather C: Should’ve thought of that before you killed me. God. I’m going to be coughing up drain
cleaner for eternity!

Veronica: I didn’t technically kill Heather, and I know that, but I still feel bad. But… not as bad as I
should? And that makes me feel even worse.
Oh, hey, guys. Still really looking forward to that apology from both of you for being two ice-cold
bitches last night.

Heather D: Um, cleaning out Heather’s locker, little respect.

Heather C: Ugh. Heather Duke was such a sad little poser. Veronica, tell her to stop touching my
stuff. …Veronica. Veronica!!

Veronica: Shut up, Heather!

Heather D: You shut up! I don’t have to shut up anymore!

Heather Chandler is gone… It’s up to me to replace her.

Veronica: Replace Heather Chandler?

Ram have been telling the whole school about what happened last night.

Veronica: What? But nothing happened.

They made you cry,

But that will end tonight.
You are the only thing that's right,
About this broken world.
Go on and cry,
But when the morning comes,
We'll burn it down and then,
We'll build the world again...
Our love is God.

JD: There’s been a lack of girls climbing through my bedroom window lately.

Veronica: Take a hint.

JD: Okay. You're mad, I get it.

Veronica: No, I don't think you do. "Ich Luge bullets"? You lied to me.

JD: Just wait 'till you see the good that comes of this.

Veronica: No good could possibly come of this.

JD: Call me an optimist. So who's next? Heather Duke? She started that rumour. I've been
underlining meaningful passages in her copy of Moby Dick, if you know what I mean.

Veronica: No! No, I do not accept this! We've already killed three people! This ends right here, right
now!

JD: Or what?

Veronica: I'll break up with you.

JD: Every war has casualties. That doesn't mean that it's not worth fighting. You and I are special,
we have a lot of work to do.

Veronica: What work? Making the world a decent place for people who are decent!

Song 6 - Seventeen JD and Veronica

Fine, we're damaged, Really damaged,

But that does not make us wise.
We're not special. We're not different.
We don't choose who lives or dies.
Let's be normal. See bad movies, Sneak a beer and watch TV.
We'll bake brownies, Or go bowling,
Don't you want a life with me?

Can't we be seventeen? That's all I want to do.

If you could let me in, I could be good with you.

People hurt us, Or they vanish.

And you're right, it really blows. But we let go, Take a deep breath,
And go buy some summer clothes. We'll go camping, Play some poker,
And we'll eat some chili fries. Maybe prom night? Maybe dancing?
Don't stop looking in my eyes. Your eyes.

Can't we be seventeen? Is that so hard to do?

If you could let me in, I could be good with you.
Let us be seventeen, If we've still got the right.

So what's it gonna be? I wanna be with you.

I wanna be with you,
Wanna be with you, tonight.

Martha: Veronica, I need your help!

Veronica: Sure, what?

Martha: Something doesn't add up. I think Ram and Kurt were murdered.

Veronica: Why would you say that? They found the suicide note!

Martha: It could have been faked! You forge them all the time, right?

Veronica: That’s ridiculous! Who'd wanna kill Ram and Kurt?

Martha: I’m thinking it was your friend JD. You saw how he went after them in the lunchroom.
There’s something off about that JD. I wanna look in his locker.

Veronica: You want to look in his locker?

Martha: Yeah, I thought maybe you could get me the combination.

Veronica: This is a pretty wild theory, Martha.

Martha: I don't care what they were saying at the funeral. Ram was not gay! I'd stake my life on it.
Why would Ram write me that note if he didn't still feel something? I'm gonna confront JD.

Veronica: Oh, you floor me Martha, you really do.

Martha: What do you mean?

Veronica: Ram didn't write that love note, I did.

Martha: No…

Veronica: Yeah. The Heathers put me up to it. The whole school was in on the joke, and no one
laughed harder than Ram. He didn't love you. He was an idiot. Now he's dead. Move on.

Veronica: Why are you carrying a gun?!

JD: It made my dad mad, it was funny.

Heather D: Hey I missed you after eighth period.

Veronica: I was avoiding you.

Heather D: How very very. I need you to sign this.

Veronica: What is that?

Heather D: It’s a petition to have the governor declare a day of remembrance to honour the victims
of suicide. I've gotten everyone to sign it, even the dweebs and losers.

Veronica: I’m not signing that.

Heather D: Veronica! It was your boyfriend's idea.

Veronica: You mean JD?

Heather D: He made up the signature sheet and everything.

Veronica: Look, I don't know what JD is up to, but if you know what's good for you, please just…
throw that away.

Heather D: Not a chance. I'll just fake your signature like I did with Martha Dumptruck. She's in no
shape to sign anything today.

Veronica: Why not?

Heather D: It was on the radio. She took a belly flop off the Old Mill Bridge last night holding a
suicide note.

Veronica: Oh my God, is she okay?

Heather D: Just some broken bones. Just another geek trying to imitate the popular people and
failing miserably.

Veronica: Martha, I'm so sorry.

JD: All is forgiven, baby. Come on out and get dressed! You're my date to the pep rally tonight!

JD: Your classmates thought they were signing a petition. You gotta come out here and see what
they really signed!

JD, Students: We, the students of Westerburg High, Will die. Our burned bodies may finally get
through,To you. Your society churns out slaves and blanks. No thanks. Signed the students of
Westerburg High. Goodbye.

We'll watch the smoke pour out the doors, Bring marshmallows, we'll make s'mores!
We can smile and cuddle while the fire roars!
I was meant to be yours. We were meant to be one.
I can't make it alone. Finish what we've begun.
You were meant to be mine. I am all that you need.
You carved open my heart, Can't just leave me to bleed!

Veronica: Step away from the bomb.

JD: And here I thought you'd lost your taste for faking suicides. People will see the ashes of
Westerburg and think to themselves, “Now, there's a school that self-destructed- not because
society didn't care- but because that school was society!” You know the only place Heathers and
Marthas can truly get along? Heaven.

Listen up folks, war is over.

Brand new sheriff's come to town.
We are done with acting evil,
We will lay our weapons down.
We're all damaged, we're all frightened.
We're all freaks- but that's alright.
We'll endure it, we'll survive it.
Martha, are you free tonight?

Martha: What?

Veronica: Uh, my date for the pep rally kind of blew-... me off. So, I was wondering, if you weren't
doing anything tonight, maybe we could pop some Jiffy Pop and rent a video? You know,
something with a happy ending.

Martha: Are there any happy endings?

Veronica: I can't promise no more Heathers,

High school may not ever end.
Still, I miss you, I'd be honored,
If you'd let me be your friend.

Martha: My friend…

All and chorus:

We can be seventeen. We can learn how to chill.

If no one loves me now, Someday somebody will.
We can be seventeen, Still time to make things right.
One day we'll change the world…
But let's kick back tonight.
Let's go be seventeen! Take off our clothes and dance.
Act like we're all still kids,'Cause this could be our final chance
Always be seventeen,
Celebrate you and I,
Maybe we won't grow old, And maybe then we'll never die!
We'll make it beautiful. We'll make it beautiful.
Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
Beautiful. Beautiful!
