Little Shop of Horrors Wiki

Sominex / Suppertime II is a song in the musical and film version of Little Shop of Horrors. Sominex takes place when Audrey, worried about Seymour, is having trouble sleeping at night, and goes to the shop to check on him. That's when the reprise of Suppertime begins; behind Audrey, Audrey II sings to her, causing Audrey to think it's Seymour, only to find the huge plant that was named for her. The plant asks Audrey to give her water, but as Audrey is about to do so, she is nearly eaten by the plant. Luckily, she is rescued by Seymour. She dies in the musical and the director's cut of the film, but survives in the theatrical version of the film and other productions of the show (school or worldwide). Sominex is cut from the film; Suppertime II begins when Audrey II calls Audrey, causing her to run to the shop and see what she has heard.

Audrey Audrey II Seymour
(Spoken) Hello?
Hey little lady, hello
Who? Who? Who is this?
You're lookin' cute as can be
Is this somebody I know?
You're lookin' mighty sweet
Seymour!
No, it ain't Seymour. It's me!
Oh my god...
I don't believe it.
(spoken) Believe it, Baby. It talks
Am I dreaming this?
No, and you ain't in Kansas neither!
Something is very wrong here.
I need me some water in the worst way.
Look at my branches.
I'm drying up. I'm a goner, honey!
(Sung) Come on and give me a drink
I, I don't know if I should!
Hey, little lady, be nice
Do you talk to Seymour like this?
Sure do, I'll drink it straight
Your branches are dry, poor thing
Don't need no glass or no ice
I-I'll get the can.
Don't need no twist of lime
Here we go!
(Spoken) And now it's suppertime!
(Spoken) Oh, relax doll, it'll be easy.
Come join your dentist friend and Mushnik!
They're right inside!
(Spoken) Get off of her! Get off of her!

1982 Lyrics[]

Audrey Audrey II Seymour
I couldn't sleep
I took a Sominex
But voices in my head kept saying
Go to Seymour, talk to Seymour
I drank some tea
But gee, the feeling wasn't gone
Seymour, sweetheart
Tell me, darling
What's been going on?
Hey little lady, hello
(Spoken) Who? Who? Who said that?
You're lookin' cute as can be
Is somebody else here?
You're lookin' mighty sweet
Seymour?
No, it ain't Seymour. It's me!
Oh my god...
Your friendly Audrey II
This plant is talking to you
Am I dreaming this?
(Spoken) No, and you ain't in Kansas neither!
Do me a favor and get me some water, sweetheart?
I'm real thirsty.
(Sung) Come on and give me a drink
I, I don't know if I should!
Hey, little lady, be nice
You just want water, right?
Sure do, I'll drink it straight
Your branches are dry, poor thing
Don't need no glass or no ice
I-I'll get the can.
Don't need no twist of lime
Here we go!
(Spoken) And now it's suppertime!
(Spoken) Get off of her! Get off of her!
