This is a cut song from the Broadway musical “Be More Chill”. This song has two performances, one by Jason SweetTooth Williams and Lauren Marcus in 2014 and one more recent one in 2019.

[JEREMY/JASON]
She is touching my hand
She is touching my hand
She is touching MY-
Touching MY-
Touching my hand
She is touching my hand!
I do not understand
What's the reason SHE
Seems to BE
Touching my hand?
Maybe this means she doesn't despise me
She doesn't despise me
And wants me to know
The level of comfort she feels when she's near me
Just makes her sincerely
Wanna never let me go
Her hand is willing, cool, and fine
To just be chilling next to mine!
That's feeling what I feel
I'm not projecting if I say
Since we're connecting in this way
I'll probably definitely get with her for real
I'll probably definitely get with her for real
[MUSIC]
[JEREMY/JASON]
She stopped touching my hand
I do not understand
That in the LEAST
Why she CEASED
Touching my hand
Maybe she had a spasm or something!
A spasm or something
And didn't realize
That when she decides
To withdraw her finger
That's breaking our linger
And part of me dies 'cause
If she can't even touch my hand
I'm not believing what I planned
Is ever congeal
If the sensation of my skin
Makes agitation creep on in
Then, how am I ever gonna get with her for real?
Then, how am I ever gonna get with her for real?
[CHRISTINE/LAUREN, Spoken]
Oh my god!
It's Jake Dillinger!
[JEREMY/JASON]
This is horrible!!
Jake's already president of the Model U.N
Been a football star since he was ten!
Had sex with a girl named Madeline
Who is probably FRENCH!
Dude's got everything as far as I can tell
So why does he want this as well?
[LAUREN, Out Of Character, Spoken]
Ok, so, if we were actually in the musical "Be More Chill" right now, Jake Dillinger would come over to me and he'd say that I was really good and that would be a HUGE DEAL and I would sing about it
[CHRISTINE/LAUREN]
He said I was good
Not just in it, but good
While he smiled and blame!
All the same
He said I was good
Jake's already president of the Model UN
Been a football star since he was ten
Had sex with that girl named Madeline
Who PRETENDS that she's French
Dude's a pretty boy cliché from what I can see
So why is he so interesting to me
[JEREMY/JASON]
If I was brazin' like those guys
When she would gaze into my eyes
Then we'll look and never reveal
I'm fun, and more, and worth a damn!
At least I sort of think I am...
But am I never gonna get with her for real?
[JEREMY/JASON & CHRISTINE/LAUREN]
She is interested in him!
He said I was good! Not just in it but good!
And he can win her on a whim!
While he smiled and blame! All the same, he said I was good!
Am I ever gonna get with her for real?
But will I ever really get with him for real?
[BOTH]
Not overstating when I say
That this has been a short passé
[JEREMY/JASON]
And I just wanna hide away
And just forget the whole ordeal
Since I am never gonna get with her for real
[CHRISTINE/LAUREN]
But am I ever gonna get with him for real?
[JEREMY/JASON]
No, I'm never gonna get with her
I'm ever gonna get with her for real
[CHRISTINE/LAUREN]
But am I ever gonna get with him for real?
[JEREMY/JASON]
No, I'm never gonna get with her
[JEREMY/JASON & CHRISTINE/LAUREN]
Am I
Never gonna get with her
Ever gonna get with him
Never gonna get with her
Ever gonna get with him
Never gonna get with her
Ever gonna get with him
Never gonna get with her for real
Ever gonna get with him for real
