A Murder In the Night (The Strange Events of Curdlequick Falls: the Musical)

TOWNSPEOPLE:
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
OUR VERY STREETS ARE FILLED WITH FRIGHT.

MAYOR:
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
OUR TOWN IS FILLED WITH DARKNESS
IS THERE NOT A LIGHT?

TAX COLLECTOR:
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
IS THERE NO LOVE OR HAPPINESS?
IS THERE NOT A LIGHT?
IS THERE NOT A LIGHT?

TOWNSPEOPLE:
HELP US GOD, FOR WE HAVE SINNED
HELP US THROUGH THIS TROUBLE THAT WE ARE IN
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
OUR VERY STREETS ARE FILLED WITH FRIGHT.
IS THERE NOT A LIGHT?
IS THERE NOT A LIGHT?

PRIEST:
OH, DEAR GOD! HEAR MY PRAYER
REACH DOWN WITH YOUR HAND, AND SEND US THE SAVIOR
IS THERE NOT A WAY?
IS THERE NOT A WAY?
HELP US THROUGH THIS EVERLASTING DAY
WILL THIS BE THE DAY, 
THAT JUSTICE CALLS OUR NAME?

TOWNSPEOPLE:
A MURDER IN THE NIGHT!
THE TERROR THROUGH OUR LIVES.
CAN THERE BE A WAY?
THROUGH THIS EVERLASTING DAY?
IS THERE A DIFFERENT WAY?
TO END OUR LASTING SHAME.
