Raggedy Ann: The Musical Adventure (aka Rag Dolly) is a dark fantasy musical with a book by William Gibson and music and lyrics by Joe Raposo. It's based on the children's stories by Johnny Gruelle and is loosely related to the 1977 feature film Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure, which included variations of a few songs. The story centers on Marcella, a dying young girl whose toys come to life and take her on a magical adventure to meet The Doll Doctor, in hopes that he can mend her broken heart. The show created a controversy in Albany, it was a renowned sensation in Moscow, a notorious flop on Broadway, and it went on to develop a cult following through bootleg recordings.

[BAT]
HEY YOU'RE NOT THE FIRST
YOU WON'T BE THE LAST
LOTS OF OTHER SOULS HAVE PASSED MY DOOR
AND YOU NEVER GET AWAY, HEY KID
YOU NEVER GET AWAY (TRUST ME)
CAUSE NO ONE EVER DID BEFORE
YOU'RE A LITTLE YOUNG
AND A TRIFLE GREEN
AND I'VE SEEN SO MANY IT'S A BORE
AND THEY NEVER GET AWAY, HEY SWEETS
THEY NEVER GET AWAY (REALLY)
CAUSE NO ONE EVER DID BEFORE
YOU RUN LIKE CRAZY
'CAUSE YOU'RE FULL OF DREAD
BUT WHAT YOU'RE RUNNING FROM
IS WAITING JUST AHEAD
WELL YOU GOT NO HOPE
NOT A SINGLE PRAYER
IT'S NOT FAIR
BUT THERE'S REAL GRIEF IN STORE
AND YOU NEVER GET AWAY, HONEST
YOU NEVER GET AWAY (GOTCHA)
'CAUSE NO ONE EVER DID BEFORE
NO ONE EVER GOT AWAY BEFORE.
YOU RUN LIKE CRAZY
'CAUSE YOU'RE FULL OF DREAD
BUT WHAT YOU'RE RUNNING FROM
IS WAITING JUST AHEAD
WELL YOU GOT NO HOPE
NOT A SINGLE PRAYER
IT'S NOT FAIR
BUT THERE'S REAL GRIEF IN STORE
AND YOU NEVER GET AWAY, HONEST
YOU NEVER GET AWAY (GOTCHA)
'CAUSE NO ONE EVER DID BEFORE
NO ONE EVER GOT AWAY BEFORE.
