CIOFFI (spoken) Well, at least now you'll have a few minutes alone with your piano.

CIOFFI (spoken) Could I ask, only becauseI've wondered this my entire life-- Which would normally come first, the music or the lyric?
AARON (spoken) Same answer as the chicken or the egg.
CIOFFI (spoken) Ah, so it's the lyric.
AARON (spoken) No. It can start with a note. Which can become a phrase. And then you try hanging words off each branch, like trimming a tree.

CIOFFI (spoken) Missing?
AARON (spoken) What?
CIOFFI (spoken) You were saying what you miss.
AARON No I meant that, well... I miss the music I miss the song Since she's not with me It comes out wrong
It doesn't matter How hard I try I've lost the music I don't know why

But when you're writing a song Without a partner That's a completely different matter No one tells you "That's not funny" No one says "Let's cut that bar" No one makes you better than you are

Lieutenant Frank Cioffi confides in Niki, an ingénue, about him being married to his job.
View Lyrics
NIKI (spoken) It isn’t wrong to be married to one’s work, is it?
CIOFFI Uh, no. No, not at all. Sometimes it’s no Honeymoon. I love my job I really do And if I say so myself I’m good at it too I catch the bad guys Well, most of the time So it’s a good life A perfectly good life Not exactly sublime
When I’ve finished my work And I crawl into bed I reflect as I turn out the lights That the day that’s to come And the week that’s ahead will be Lunch counter mornings And coffee shop nights
Lunch counter mornings And coffee shop nights
NIKI (spoken) Well, it’s reassuring to have such a dependable schedule, like matinees every Wednesday.
CIOFFI (spoken) Or Brisket and broad beans each Thursday.
NIKI (spoken) With your friends
CIOFFI With, uh, yeah, well… I like my pals The guys on the force We’re not very social They’re all married of course
Sometime we go bowling Or have a few beers So it’s a fine life A perfectly fine like I’d give it two cheers
‘Cuz sometimes I think At the end of the day When I’ve read the last burglar his rights That the life that I lead Is a little bit grey With its lunch counter mornings And coffee shop nights
Lunch counter mornings And coffee shop nights
NIKI (spoken) But your acting roles. Well, don’t they make for a change?
CIOFFI (spoken) Oh, Miss Harris, each year from May 23rd to the 12th of June, When I turn my life over to the Swallow Street Players, that’s more than a vacation for me. It’s an overture of hope. It’s the curtain rising on the greatest joy of my life. (singing) But the rest of the year The life that I lead That’s a little bit grey There are plenty of low days And not many highs Mostly lunch counter mornings And coffee shop nights
CIOFFI (spoken) I don’t mean to sound forward, but might I walk you home?
NIKI (spoken) Oh, I’d be delighted, but you said we’re not allowed to leave.

BAMBI Bambi
CARMEN Who pisses away a lot of her hard earned bucks [pause] Elaine
BAMBI Bambi
CARMEN But let's face it your coloratura sucks Bambi, Though it breaks your mother's heart, Forget about the part, It's time for you to know Why I really backed this show.
You ask me for my motives Well, you needn't be so smart, It's a business. It isn't making history, It isn't making art, It's a business.
Shaw and Ibsen take 'em away, And don't bother me with Molière, Those Russians never pay.
So go on criticize me, Please, proceed with your attack, It's a business
I put one million in And I expect two million back, It's a business
So, what crime have i committed If I'm putting up a fight? It's a business
And I want those paying suckers Out there giving me the business Every night
(spoken) Am I getting through to you, Elaine?
BAMBI I'm sorry mother, but to me the theatre is a temple.
CARMEN (spoken) What so it should only be filled on shabbat? Give me a hand fellas. [they clap] Very funny. You know what I mean. Back me up.
(sung) The not for profit theatres Don't need to turn a buck That's not business
GUYS That's not business
CARMEN So give them Lysistrata And I wish them lots of luck I do business
GUYS She does business
CARMEN Dorky schmorky Money misspent You won't survive Yom Kippur You'll never get through Lent
I once knew a producer Whose pretension knew no bounds In the business
GUYS In the business
CARMEN He mounted Samuel Beckett I don't mean it like it sounds It was business
GUYS It was business
CARMEN So now he's down the crapper While I'm working in my prime It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN And the shows I do do business 'Cause I really know my business And I'm giving them the business, honey All the time
BAMBI But what about the great poets of the stage?
CARMEN (spoken) Honey i put on the ice man cometh and nobody cameth
(sung) To stage hands To the dressers To musicians in the pit It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN The owner of this premiss cleans up if we're a hit He's in business
GUYS He's in business
CARMEN Union workers don't work for free Hey Harry on the spotlight Blink twice if you agree
See!
I'm not devoid of culture But my feet are on the floor It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN I do the Kama Sutra With a Richard Rogers score That's good business
GUYS That's good business
CARMEN Yes, green's my favorite color, And I don't mean on the grass It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN And the shows I do do business, Yes I'm good at doin' business, And if you don't like my business sweetie,
Blow it out your—
GUYS Business. It's a business
