"Some Fun Now" is a lively and memorable song featured in the 1986 American rock musical comedy film Little Shop of Horrors, directed by Frank Oz and based on the off-Broadway stage musical of the same name by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken. This particular song holds a unique place in the film's soundtrack and is known for its energetic and humorous performance.

Background[]

In Little Shop of Horrors, "Some Fun Now" is performed during a montage that showcases the escalating mayhem resulting from the insatiable and carnivorous plant, Audrey II. As the plant's demands for blood and power grow, the song reflects the characters' increasing desperation and the chaos that unfolds within the flower shop and its surroundings. The song features the characters Crystal, Ronette, and Chiffon, played by Tichina Arnold, Michelle Weeks, and Tisha Campbell, respectively. The trio serves as a Greek chorus, providing commentary on the unfolding events in the film.

Lyrics[]

Poor Seymour pushed a broom
Nothing in his news but gloom and doom
Then he lit a fuse, and, give him room

He started an explosion, holy cow!
That thing went bang! Kaboom!
And he's havin' some fun now

Some fun now, pop quiz
What's he havin'? Some fun now, sure is!
He's-a havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Ain't he havin' some fun now?

Some fun now, hot damn!
Ain't he havin' some fun now? Yes ma'am
He's-a havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Ain't he havin' some fun now?

Some fun now, hot damn!
Ain't he havin' some fun now? Yes ma'am
He's-a havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Ain't he havin' some fun now?

Some fun now, pop quiz
Ain't he havin' some fun now? Sure is!
Really havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Ain't he havin' some fun now?

Some fun now, thank God
He's havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Yes, he's havin' some fun now, oh boy!
Ain't he havin' some fun now?

Some fun now
