The 7 songs we want to hear in the ‘Heathers’ musical

Color us stoked: There’s going to be an off-Broadway musical of the ’80s movie “Heathers” in the spring. The highly quotable cult flick, which starred Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, has endless potential for musical adaptation — here are seven scenes we’d very much like to see performed in song (there may be a swear word or two here, though we’ve left out the film’s chainsaw-related F-bomb).

“The lunchtime poll”

“Did you have a brain tumor for breakfast?”

“Greetings and salutations”

“Because you’re an idiot!”

“Chaos killed the dinosaurs”

“Why are you such a megab-tch?”

“Color me impressed”
