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:

    “Sometimes a musical phrase would perfectly sum up
    The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
    For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
    Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Out of the darkness where Philomela sat,
    Her fairy numbers issued. What then ailed me?
    My ears are called capacious but they failed me,
    Her classics registered a little flat!
    I rose, and venomously spat.”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
