## Lyrics

**Carol**

Who will listen?

Who won't mince my words?

**Little Quark**

*Whee!*

**Carol**

Who will actually listen and act like they heard?

**Little Quark**

*\*various quark noises\**

**Carol**

And not just jump on what I'm saying in the middle

Why does every person make me feel like I'm speaking in riddles?

Who will get me?

Who knows

Who will get me?

Who knows

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Hey.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Yeah?*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Carol?*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Yeah!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Um, sorry, I...I don't mean to- I found your bag outside and...*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Oh, thanks.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*I saw you were reading the Oprah Winfrey biography.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Yeah, she's a big hero of mine.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*She's my hero too! Hey, what's up? I work in the biology lab across the street.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Oh wow, you guys do incredible work.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Thank you! No, you guys do incredible work.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Oh no, I mean, you do incredible work.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Thanks, that's really nice to hear. Sometimes I feel like no one understands me over there.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*Hey Lisa, you left your bag in the locker. Here it is, it's got some Oprah Winfrey book in it?*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Yeah...*

**Chad (spoken)**

*I would never read that. Okay, bye!*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Wow...You deal with that too-*

**Chad (spoken)**

*Back to cutting frogs open!*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Wow, that guy is so intense.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*WOOHOO!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Yeah, he's my colleague and my twin brother.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*Hey Lisa? Sorry. Mom wants to know if you're coming back for Thanksgiving or not.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*No! Get outta here.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*Cool.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*I'm talking to my new friend.*

**Chad (spoken)**

*Fine.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Um, Lisa?*

**Chad (spoken)**

*FROGS!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Oh, God.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Wow. Gosh dang, he's intense. Um, I'm Carol.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Hi, Carol.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*I'm in charge of flipping the switch on the collider, but-*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Whoa.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Yeah, I know. I can't decide if it's right or not because I could open up a black hole and no one seems to understand the stakes of that.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*That's huge!*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Thank you!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*The whole world could end!*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Thank you!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*That's huge.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Thank you.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*No more frogs, I'll tell you that right now.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Thank you!*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Oh wow.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Oh my gosh, wow.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*This has been so nice.*

**Carol (spoken)**

*Wow, I feel amazing.*

**Lisa (spoken)**

*Me too, me too. It's just nice to be, I don't know, understood?*

**Carol (spoken)**

*It's like...*

**Carol**

Do you get me?

Do you get me?

**Carol**

I think you know

**Lisa**

I think you know me

**Carol**

Do you get me?

**Lisa**

Do you get me?

**Carol**

I feel like you know

**Lisa**

I think you know

**Carol**

I know that sometimes in our field

We're pushed to always ask

Every single intricacy of every little task

**Lisa (spoken)**

*So true.*

**Carol**

But for the first time in my life, I'm going to just say yes

I am your friend and I don't have to second guess

I won't ask why

**Lisa**

Don't ask why

**Carol**

You get me

I won't ask why

**Lisa**

Don't ask why

**Carol**

You know

Some things are better left felt, not known

I won't ask why you get me

You just seem to know
