Lyrics[]
Citizens:
Oooh, oooh, oooh-ooh-ooh
Jughead:
You know the sun is in your eyes
And hurricanes and rains and black and cloudy skies
Archie (with Female Citizens):
You're running up and down that hill
You turn it (on and off at will)
Veronica (with Female Citizens):
There's nothing (here to thrill)
Or (bring you down)
Toni with Female Citizens harmonizing (and Female Citizens):
And if you've (got no other choice)
You know you (can follow my voice)
Cheryl with Female Citizens harmonizing (and Female Citizens):
Through the dark (turns and noise
Of this wicked little town)
Veronica:
Oh, Lady Luck has led you here
Archie with Female Citizens harmonizing:
And they're so twisted up
Kevin with Female Citizens harmonizing:
They'll twist you up, I fear
Veronica with Female Citizens harmonizing:
The pious, hateful and devout
Hermione and Hiram:
You're turning tricks til you're turned out
Veronica with Female Citizens harmonizing:
The wind so cold it burns
You're burning out and blowing round
Betty with Female Citizens harmonizing (and Female Citizens):
And if you've (got no other choice)
You know you (can follow my voice)
Through the dark (turns and noise
Of this)
Jughead with Female Citizens and Female Citizens harmonizing:
Wicked little town
Citizens:
Ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh
Ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh
Oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh
Betty (with Female Citizens harmonizing):
The fates are vicious and they're (cruel)
Alice, FP, and Jellybean with Female Citizens harmonizing (and Female Citizens):
You learn too late you've used two (wishes like a fool)
Kevin with Female Citizens (and Male Citizens):
And then you're someone you are not
And Riverdale, it ain't the spot
Remember Mrs. Lot
(And when she turned around)
Betty (with Female Citizens):
And if you've (got no other choice)
You know you (can follow my voice)
Jughead (with Female Citizens):
Through the dark (turns and noise
Of this wicked little town)
