Naughty
Matilda Lyrics
Jack and Jill, went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water, so they say
Their subsequent fall was inevitable
They never stood a chance, they were written that way
Innocent victims of their story
Like Romeo and Juliet
'Twas written in the stars before they even met
That love and fate, and a touch of stupidity
Would rob them of their hope of living happily
I wonder why they didn't just change their story?
We're told we have to do as we're told but surely
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty
Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change
Even if you're little, you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like "little" stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top, you
Might as well be saying
You think that it's okay
And that's not right
Cinderella, in the cellar
Didn't have to do much as far as I can tell
Her Godmother, was two thirds fairy
Suddenly her lot was a lot less scary
But what if you haven't got a fairy to fix it?
Sometimes you have to make a little bit of mischief
Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change
Even if you're little, you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like "little" stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top, you
Might as well be saying
You think that it's okay
And that's not right
And if it's not right
You have to put it right
In the slip of a bolt, there's a tiny revolt
The seed of a war in the creak of a floorboard
A storm can begin, with the flap of a wing
The tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting
Every day, starts with the tick of a clock
All escapes, start with the click of a lock
If you're stuck in your story and want to get out
You don't have to cry, you don't have to shout!
'Cause if you're little you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like "little" stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top, you
Won't change a thing
Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
You might as well be saying
You think that it's okay
And that's not right!
And if it's not right
You have to put it right
But nobody else it gonna put it right for me
Nobody but me is gonna change my story
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty!

2. Matilda (Matilda Gressberg) from Eidskog, Norway, has at the age of only 18 already established herself as a complete artist and a high profile Norwegian act.

Among them are Evene Ormestad (producers), Thom Hell (guitars and co-producer), Jonas Alaska (harmonica), Martin Horntvedt (drums), David Wallumrød (keyboards), Kjetil Grande and Olaf Olsen (drums). Matilda possesses a great voice, both crystal clear and consisting of a strong and hard-to-describe characteristic. Add in a very good ear for melodies, blended with a knack for solid pop- and singer/songwriter tunes, and last but not least credibility. What we end up with is a particularly potent mix bound for stardom.

The Matilda project is a mostly solo ongoing musical endeavor spearheaded by mostly relaxed and slightly lazy working man Shaun Wisniewski.
Originally called P.S. [for about two weeks] the Matilda project started as a birthday gift for his brother in 2003. Shaun enjoyed the music making process so much that he continued to do it. +
Now in 2011 the Matilda project has seen many variations, mutations, as well as other oddities, but has put out around 15 releases, most of which are full length albums.

Yup, but you forgot a few songs.
“School song” was terrifyingly good.
“My house” was emotional.
“Naughty” Pure mischief and fun
“When I grow up” Deeply emotional and deeply moving.
“Holding my hand” Catchy tunes and a little bit emotional.
“Revolting children” Pure happiness and fun.

LYRICS IN ENGLISH:
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water.
So they say, their subsequent fall was inevitable.
They never stood a chance; they were written that way.
Innocent victims of their story.
Like Romeo and Juliet,
'Twas written in the stars before they even met
That love and fate and a touch of stupidity
Would rob them of their hope of living happily.
The endings are often a little bit gory.
I wonder why they didn't just change their story.
We're told we have to do what we're told, but surely
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty.
Just because you find that life's not fair, it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it.
If you always take it on the chin and wear it,
Nothing will change.
Even if you're little you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you.
If you sit around and let them get on top, you
Might as well be saying you think that it's OK,
And that's not right.
And if it's not right, you have to put it right.
In the slip of a bolt, there's a tiny revolt.
The seeds of a war in the creak of a floorboard.
A storm can begin with the flap of a wing.
The tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting.
Every day starts with the tick of a clock.
All escapes start with the click of a lock.
If you're stuck in your story and want to get out,

'Cause if you're little, you can do a lot, you
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you.

You might as well be saying you think that it's OK.
And that's not right.
And if it's not right, you have to put it right.
But nobody else is gonna put it right for me.
Nobody but me is gonna change my story.
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty.

Castilian Spanish Lyrics:
Hamelín sufrió un pelín
Salvados por la flauta
No le dan su sueldo al señor
Quien les hizo el favor
Y él rapta a todos los niños con un cruel plan
Tanta injusticia en una historia
Romeo con Julieta, igual
El prólogo ya avisa de que acaban mal
Su gran amor, el destino y algún desliz
Les arrancó por siempre su final feliz
A veces los protas no obtienen la gloria
¿Por qué no intentarían cambiar su historia?
Ser buena es buena opción, pero si lo adornas...
Sabes que a veces tocará romper normas
Si ves que en tu vida no hay justicia
Se un pelín travieso, un toque de malicia
Pues si tú toleras lo que te desquicia
No cambiará
Aunque habrá quien quiera derrumbar tu empeño
Piensa que da igual que seas muy pequeño
Porque si no vas a defender tu sueño
Puede que te creas que ya está todo bien
Y no lo está
Y si no lo está
Actúa y lo estará
Con un simple rumor se genera temor
Desata un tifón un sencillo aleteo
Con un trampolín salta el más chiquitín
Con una flor sola se empieza un jardín
Sale el Sol, cuando lo marca un tictac
Tu prisión se abre cuando oyes un clac
Si te frena tu historia, escápate ya
Reescríbetela o te asfixiará
Y habrá quien quiera derrumbar tu empeño
Pero qué más da que seas muy pequeño
Si no vas jamás a defender tu sueño
No ocurrirá
Si ves que en tu vida no hay justicia
Sé un pelín travieso, un toque de malicia
Pues si tú toleras lo que te desquicia
Aún puede que te creas que ya está todo bien
Y no lo está
Y si no lo está
Actúa y lo estará
Tan solo tú mismo harás que cambien las tornas
Para reescribir tu historia de mil formas
Sabes que a veces tocará romper normas

“Just because you think that life’s unfair it doesnt mean you just have to grin and bear it.” That is so true! We’re not victims of our story.

Awesome line which was made better when I found out that this line, this entire song and ALL the songs in this film were written by a fellow Aussie. All the songs in Matilda are written by Australian comedian named Tim Minchin who has been doing this type of stuff for years and only fairly recently getting the level of respect he deserves.

@Rammy's Wonderful word of fun & Learningok that’s the point

Actually the message is that YES, we're victims of our stories. The point? We have to get over them, and not play the victim character. You don't have to stuck in it when it's a world, and a million stories out to write.
