No one cares if you grow or if you shrink! No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy! All: From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink! Oh! Empty belly life! Rotten smelly life! Full of sorrow life! No tomorrow life! Molly: Santa Claus we never see Annie: Santa Claus, what's that who's he? All: No one cares for you a smidge When you're in an orphanage! Molly: (Making a whistling sound and imitating Miss.
