"There are Worse Things I Could Do" - Othello, Part III



"There are Worse Things I Could Do" by Stockard Channing (Grease Soundtrack) - Othello, Part III (Bianca and Cassio)

Bianca - "Othello" - Act III, Scene IV to Act V, Scene I


"O Cassio, whence came this?
This is some token from a newer friend:
To the felt absence now I feel a cause:
Is't come to this? Well, well...

But that you do not love me.
I pray you, bring me on the way a little,
And say if I shall see you soon at night...

I am no strumpet; but of life as honest
As you that thus abuse me."

"There are Worse Things I Could Do" Lyrics

There are worse things I could do, than go with a boy or two
Even though the neighbourhood thinks I'm trashy and no good
I suppose it could be true, but there are worse things I could do

I could flirt with all the guys, smile at them and bat my eyes
Press against them when we dance, make them think they stand a chance
Then refuse to see it through, that's a thing I'd never do

I could stay home every night, wait around for Mr. Right
Take cold showers every day, and throw my life away
On a dream that won't come true

I could hurt someone like me, out of spite or jealousy
I don't steal and I don't lie, but I can feel and I can cry
A fact I'll bet you never knew
But to cry in front of you, that's the worst thing I could do


Why I Chose This Song
