Cannibal! The Musical - Musical Numbers

Musical Numbers

  1. "Shpadoinkle" - Alferd
  2. "That's All I'm Asking For" - George, Alferd, Shannon, Frank, Swan, Humphrey
  3. "When I Was on Top of You" - Alferd
  4. "Trapper Song" - Frenchy (voice of Parker)
  5. "This Side of Me" - Polly
  6. "Let's Build a Snowman" - Swan
  7. "Hang the Bastard" - Company

Contrasting with the musical's dark comedy are its cheerful songs, all composed by Trey Parker, including "Let's Build a Snowman," "On Top of You," "Hang the Bastard," and "Shpadoinkle" (pronounced Shpah-doink-ul). The last of these is a transparent parody of the song "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning" from the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical Oklahoma!.

Two songs that were originally going to be in the film, but later taken out, were "Shatterproof" and "Don't Be Stupid". An interview with Ian Keldin (Bell) said that Trey thought "Shatterproof" (which was going to be a rap song) made Packer seem too tough.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or numbers:

    “Syncopations are no indication of light or trashy music, and to shy bricks at “hateful ragtime” no longer passes for musical culture.”
    —Scott Joplin (1868–1917)

    “He bundles every forkful in its place,
    And tags and numbers it for future reference,
    So he can find and easily dislodge it
    In the unloading. Silas does that well.
    He takes it out in bunches like birds’ nests.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
