From Matilda the Musical [Verse 1]

Jack and Jill went up the hill to

C/E
fetch a pail of water, so they say

the subsequent fall was inevitable

They never stood a chance they were written that way

Innocent victims

of their story.

Like Romeo and Juliet, 'Twas written in the

stars before they even met

That love and fate (and a touch of stupidity)

The endings are often

a little bit gory.

I wonder why they didn't just

change their story.

We're told we have to do what we're

C            Bb
told, but surely

Bb
Sometimes you have to be

C            F
a little bit naughty.
[Chorus]
Bb
Just because you find that life's not fair, it

Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it.

Gm
If you always take it on the chin and wear it,

Nothing will change.

Even if you're little you can do a lot, you

F/A
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you.

you think that it's OK,

And that's not right.

F
Cinderella, in the cellar,

C
Didn't have to do much as far as I could tell.

Bb
Her Godmother was two thirds fairy.

Bb
Suddenly her lot was a lot less scary.

F
But what if you haven't got

a fairy to fix it?

Bb
Sometimes you have to make

C           F
a little bit of mischief.

you have to put it right.
