A woman is blasting her unfaithful lover.
View Lyrics
There he goes as usual, my man Breaking my foolish heart I really don't know what to do about him I've told myself I've got to do without him

There he goes as usual, my man Tearing my heart apart He's made my life a mess I've got to do this I guess

Goodbye Joe, from here I kiss you Goodbye Joe, I hope I don't miss you

If you had been on the square And had treated me fair And we?d not had a tiff If you had not said I should go and jump right off The nearest cliff

If you had stayed off the make And you never had taken To coming home stiff If I had not smelled perfume With a nasty unfamiliar whiff

I'm gonna miss you, baby Things could've been teriff Ah, what's the diff?

If you had not had the cheek To stay out for a week Saying, "Back in a jiff" If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you have And you were And you went And you did And so goodbye

If I had not seen you Take Geraldine on the lake In your flat-bottomed skiff If you were not out with Sue With your arms around her bare midriff

If I had not seen you pen sexy letters To Gwen in your own hieroglyph If you had not left me home When had two seats for South Pacif

I'm gonna miss you, baby You were too darn prolif Ah, what's the diff?

If you were not such a hound Who when game was around Always picked up the sniff If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you were And you have And you went And you did And so, goodbye

If when I asked where you'd been You had not cliffed my chin With a beautiful biff Hey, if I had not always found purple Lipstick on your handkerchief

If you had not told me lies And then looked in my eyes With a smile beautif If when I caught you with Kate You had not said, ?It?s of no signif?

I'm gonna miss you, baby And I could get specif Ah, what's the diff?

If the best years of my life Weren't spent as your wife With no marriage certif If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't

If you didn't If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you had And you were And you have And you went And you did

And so goodbye!

The fancy-free Helen makes a move on the salesman Paris.
View Lyrics
It's a lazy afternoon And the beetle bugs are zooming And the tulip trees are blooming And there's not another human in view but us two

It's a lazy afternoon And the farmer leaves his reaping In the meadow cows are sleeping And the speckled trouts stop leaping up stream

As we dream A far pink cloud hangs over the hill Unfolding like a rose If you hold my hand and sit real still You can hear the grass as it grows

It's a hazy afternoon And I know a place that's quiet 'Cept for daisies running riot And there's no one passing by it to see Come spend this lazy afternoon with me

Mother, who is now occupied with her own dreams, hopes that things will change in Father's absence.
View Lyrics
Goodbye my love. God bless you. And I suppose, Bless America, too.
You have places to discover, Oceans to conquer, You need to know I'll be there at the window While you go on your way. I accept that.
But, what of the people Who stay where they're out, Planted like flowers with roots underfoot.
I know some of those people Have hearts that would rather Go Journeying On the sea.
Tell me, What of the people Whose boudaries chafe, Who marry so bravely And end up so safe.
Tell me how to be someone Whose heart can explore While still staying here.
Let this be the year We both travel... Goodbye, my love Journey on.

When I was very young, I had a perfect life. My Pa a perfect husband and my Ma a perfect wife. And everyday my life went by so perfectly? I made a perfect plan, I dreamed some perfect dreams. But now I look around, my dreams are splitting at the seams! I made one big decision and now look at me? When I do something wrong I do it perfectly?

My big mistake, Roping you in. I got my wish, Now I can't win. I thought once I caught you you'd quit your roamin' But I'm the one who's caught in a world I'm not at home in!

My big mistake, Thinking you'd change. Fancyin' life Home on the range. 'Cause I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make I love my big mistake!

I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make? I love my big mistake!

Fosca fantasizes about Giorgio writing a letter to her.
View Lyrics
GIORGIO (spoken) Fosca, it will be light soon, I should be going

FOSCA (spoken) Would you do me a great favor before you leave? Would you write a letter for me?

GIORGIO (spoken) Certainly

FOSCA (spoken) My dearest Fosca... (Giorgio stops writing and looks at her, annoyed.) Please (Giorgio resumes writing.)

GIORGIO (spoken) "My dearest Fosca"

FOSCA I wish I could forget you Erase you from my mind But ever since I met you I find, I cannot leave the thought of you behind That doesn't mean I love you...

GIORGIO That doesn't mean I love you...

FOSCA I wish that I could love you...

I know that I've upset you I know I've been unkind I wanted you to vanish from sight But now I see you in a different light And though I cannot love you I wish that I could love you

For now I'm seeing love Like none I've ever known A love as pure as breath, as permanent as death Implacable as stone A love that, like a knife, has cut into a life I wanted left alone A love I may regret But one I can't forget

I don't know how I let you So far inside my mind But there you are and there you will stay How could I ever wish you away? I see now I was blind And should you die tomorrow Another thing I see: Your love will live in me

(spoken) I remain... Your Giorgio

Lisa, a homeless woman asks for money.
View Lyrics
Pennies or nickels or dimes. We live in perilous times. I don't ask you to treat me nice I'm not asking for pleasant conversation. I'm not asking for paradise. All I'm asking for is change.

Hate me but don't kick my shins. I'm where your kindness begins. Please, folks, do not spend time with me. I won't ask you to treat me like your mother. I'm not asking for sympathy All I'm asking for is change.

Change the government, Kill the mayor. It's not fair how lives evaporate Change the system That made us what we are I don't ask for hugs. Just need money to by more drugs And if you folks pay, I'll go away.

People walk by me with glee. I am what they'll never be. I don't ask you to tip your hat. I don't ask that you notice what I'm wearing. I could care less for things like that. All I'm asking for is change. Change. Change. Change.

Pennies or nickels or dimes We live in perilous times.

Berthe, Pippin's grandmother, reminds him to worry less and live a little.
View Lyrics
BERTHE When you are as old as I, my dear And I hope that you never are You will woefully wonder why, my dear Through your cataracts and catarrh You could squander away or sequester A drop of a precious year For when your best days are yester The rest'er twice as dear....
What good is a field on a fine summer night If you sit all alone with the weeds? Or a succulent pear if with each juicy bite You spit out your teeth with the seeds? Before it's too late stop trying to wait For fortune and fame you're secure of For there's one thing to be sure of, mate: There's nothing to be sure of!
Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, cause spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
I've never wondered if I was afraid When there was a challenge to take I never thought about how much I weighed When there was still one piece of cake
Maybe it's meant the hours I've spent Feeling broken and bent and unwell But there's still no cure sole heaven-sent As the chance to raise some hell Everybody....
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, cause spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE
Now, Sages tweet that age is sweet Good deeds and good work earns you laurels But what could make you feel more obsolete Than being noted for your morals?
Give me a man who is handsome and strong Someone who's stalwart and steady Give me a night that's romantic and long And give me a month to get ready
Now I could waylay some aging roue And persuade him to play in some cranny But it's hard to believe I'm being led astray By a man who calls me granny
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE So when the drearies do attack And a siege of the sads begins I just throw these regal shoulders back And lift these noble chins
Here is a secret I never have told Maybe you'll understand why I believe if I refuse to grow old I can stay young till I die
Now, I've known the fears of sixty-six years I've had troubles and tears by the score But the only thing I'd trade them for Is sixty-seven more...
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to keep takin' from this world we're given You are my time, so I'll throw off my shawl And watching your flings be flung all over Makes me feel young all over
ALL In just no time at all!

Christine convinces Mary that her love for Del knows no boundaries
View Lyrics
Our kind of love, our kind of passion Burns with a heat so hard to bear It's not a game, no fad or fashion Our kind of love's for those who dare

I must be strong, I must be bolder Cling to my dream and never tire Each love denied leaves people colder New love rekindles every fire

I shan't betray my heart's desire Even though we come From different sides We won't hide

I am in love, no one can blame me Such is my story and my fate My kind of love will never shame me My love is stronger than their hate My love is stronger than their hate

I shall cling to him with all my might It's my right

All kinds of love bring us together Causing the broken hearts to mend People must love now and forever There's only one love in the end There's only one love in the end

Mimi Paragon, a ship captain, rants and raves about embarrassing travelers and their awkward behaviors overseas.
View Lyrics
Travel they say improves the mind, An irritating platitude, which frankly, entrenous, Is very far from true.

Personally I've yet to find that longitude and latitude can educate those scores of monumental bores Who travel in groups and herds and troupes Of various breeds and sexes Till the whole world reels... to shouts and squeals... And the clicking of Roliflexes.

Why do the wrong people travel, travel, travel When the right people stay back home? What compulsion compels them and who the hell tells them To drag their clans to Zanzibar, instead of staying quietly in Omaha.

The Taj Mahal and the Grand Canal And the sunny French Rivera Would be less oppressed if the Middle West Would settle for somewhere rather nearer. Please do not think that I criticize or cavel At a genuine urge to roam.

But why, oh why, do the wrong people travel When the right people stay back home And mind their business When the right people stay back home And eat hot doughnuts When the right people stay back home I sometimes wonder Why the right people stay back home.

Just when you think romance is ripe it rather sharply dawns on you That each sweet serenade is for the tourist trade Any attractive native type who resolutely fawns on you Will give as his address, American Express There isn't a rock between Bangkok and the beaches of His-pianola That does not recoil from suntan oil and the gurgle of Coca-Cola

Why do the wrong people travel, travel, travel When the right people stay back home? What explains this mass mania to leave Pennsylvania And clack around like flocks of geese. Demanding dry martinis on the isles of Greece In the smallest street, where the gourmets meet, They invariably fetch up And it's hard to make them accept a steak that isn't served rare and smeared with ketchup.

Millions of tourists are churning up the gravel While they gaze at St. Peter's Dome,

But why, oh why do the wrong people travel when the right people stay back home with Cinerama when the right people stay back home with all that Kleenex when the right people stay back home I merely asking why the right people stay back home

What peculiar obsessions inspire those processions Of families from Houston Tex with all those cameras around their necks? They will take a train Or an aeroplane For an hour on the Costa Brava, And they'll see Pompeii On the only day When it's up to its ass in molten lava! It would take years to unravel, ravel, ravel Every impulse that makes them wanna roam.

But why oh WHY do the wrong people travel When the right people stay at home." And Yogie Bear-O When the right people stay back home Won't someone tell me Why the right people stay back home.

Context & Lyrics

After Neville threatens to send Mary to boarding school, the chambermaid Martha encourages her to persevere.
View Lyrics
I think you were just what our Colin needed. What you've got to do is finish What you have begun! I don't know just how But it's not over till you've won.

When you see the storm is coming See the lightning part the skies It's too late to run There's terror in your eyes What you do then is remember This old thing you heard me say "It's the storm, not you That's bound to blow away"

Hold on Hold on to someone standing by Hold on Don't even ask how long or why? Child, hold on to what you know is true Hold on till you get through Child, oh child Hold on

When you feel your heart is poundin' Fear a devil's at your door There's no place to hide You're frozen to the floor What you do then is you force yourself To wake up, and just say "It's this dream, not me That's bound to go away"

Hold on Hold on, the night will soon be by Hold on Until there's nothing left to try Child, hold on, there's angels on their way Hold on and hear them say "Child, oh child!"

And it doesn't even matter If the danger and the doom Come from up above or down below Or just come flying at you from across the room

When you see a man who's raging And he's jealous and he fears That you've walked through walls He's hid behind for years What you do then Is you tell yourself to wait it out And say "It's this day, not me That's bound to go away"

Child, oh hold on It's this day, not you That's bound to go away

Context & Lyrics

When Mame discovers that her nephew Patrick has married a debutante from a bigoted family, she wonders what went wrong.
View Lyrics
MAME Where is that boy with the bugle? My little love was always my big romance; Where's that boy with the bugle? And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?
Did he need a stronger hand? Did he need a lighter touch? Was I soft or was I tough? Did I give enough? Did I give too much?
At the moment when he needed me, Did I ever turn away? Would I be there when he called, If he walked into my life today.
Were his days a little dull? Were his nights a little wild? Did I overstate my plan? Did I stress the man? And forget the child. And there must have been a million things. That my heart forgot to say. Would I think of one or two, If he walked into my life today.
Should I blame the times I pampered him, Or blame the times I bossed him; What a shame! I never really found the boy, Before I lost him.
Were the years a little fast? Was his world a little free? Was there too much of a crowd? All too lush and loud and not enough for me. Though I'll ask myself my whole life long, What went wrong along the way; Would I make the same mistakes If he walked into my life today? If that boy with the bugle, If he walked into my life today.

The tomboy Molly Tobin proclaims her desire to learn to read, write, and find a rich husband.
View Lyrics
I'm goan' to learn to read and write, I'm goan' to see what there is to see, So if you go from nowhere On the road to somewhere And you meet anyone You know it's me.

You'll see me carried shoulder high, By famous people I've never met, But till I leave the rear, It's from the rear you'll hear, "I ain't down yet." To show that you know, You got to show you know you know!

I'm goan' to move From place to place To find a house With a goldn stair And if that house is red And has a big brass bed I'm liiiivin' there.

You'll see me carried shoulder high, By famous people I've never met, But till I leave the rear, It's from the rear you'll hear, "I ain't down yet."

GIBBON Turn back, O man Forswear thy foolish ways Old now is earth And none may count her days Da da da da da
Yet thou, her child Whose head is crowned with flames Still will not hear Thine inner God proclaims
Turn back, O man Turn back, O man Turn back, O man Forswear thy foolish ways (See ya later I'm going to the front of the thee-AY-ter)
Earth might be fair And all men glad and wise Age after age their tragic empires rise
Da da da da da
Built while they dream And in that dreaming weep Would man but wake From out his haunted sleep
Turn back, O man... Turn back, O man... Turn back, O man... Forswear thy foolish ways
JESUS Earth shall be fair And all her people one Not till that hour Shall God's whole will be done
Now, even now Once more from earth to sky Peels forth in joy Man's old undaunted cry Earth shall be fair And all her people one
GIBBON C'mere Jesus, I got something to show ya!
CHORUS Turn back, oh man Forswear thy foolish ways! Old now is earth And none may count her days
Yet thou, her child Whose head is crowned with flames Still will not hear Thine inner God proclaims
Turn back, oh man Turn back, oh man Turn back, oh man Forswear thy foolish ways!

Anyone can whistle, That's what they say- Easy. Anyone can whistle Any old day- Easy. It's all so simple: Relax, let go, let fly. So someone tell me why can't I?
I can dance a tango, I can read Greek- Easy. I can slay a dragon Any old week- Easy. What's hard is simple. What's natural comes hard.
Maybe you could show me How to let go, Lower my guard, Learn to be free. Maybe if you whistle, Whistle for me.

Context & Lyrics

Sharon explains her father's theory behind following dreams.
View Lyrics
On the day I was born, said my father, said he, I've an elegant legacy waiting for ye. Tis a rhyme for your lips and a song for your heart, To sing whenever the world falls apart.

Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow it over the hill and stream. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow the fellow who follows a dream. Follow the fellow, follow the fellow, Follow the fellow who follows a dream.

'Twas a sumptuous gift bequeathed to a child. Oh, the lure of that song Kept her feet running wild. For you never grow old and you never stand still With a whippoorwill singing beyond the next hill.

So, I bundled me heart and I roamed the world free. To the east with the lark Tow the west with the sea. And I searched all the world and I scanned all the skies. But I found it at last in my own true love's eyes.

I hear a bird, Londonderry bird, It well may be he's bringing me a cheering word. I hear a breeze, a River Shanon breeze, It well may be it's followed me across the seas. Then tell me please

How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that little brook still leaping there? Does it still run down to Donny cove? Through Killybegs, Kilkerry and Kildare?

How are things in Glocca Morra? Is that willow tree still weeping there? Does that lassie with the twinklin' eye Come smilin' by and does she walk away,

Sad and dreamy there not to see me there? So I ask each weepin' willow and each brook along the way, And each lass that comes a-sighin' too ra lay How are things in Glocca Morra this fine day?

Josh's mother becomes more aware of how fast Billy and the other kids have grown.
View Lyrics
MRS. BASKIN Two months old, he looks up at you How his smile melts your heart You want to say, "Stop, time" Don't move on Even as you watch that look is gone
Then he's two, such a little man So alive and so smart Again you say, "Stop, time" Stay just this way But the future comes and he can't stay
Nobody warns you of this parent's paradox You want your kid to change and grow But when he does, another child you've just begun to know Leaves forever
Birthdays fly - 7, 8, 9, 10 Every kid he becomes you clutch and say "Stop, time" Hold this one fast But it's not supposed to last And that time has come and passed For he's growing And he has to go
If I had only stopped the clock four weeks ago Somehow had frozen time right there He'd still be here, I'd see his face I'd hold him in my arms Safe forever It can't be that he's reached thirteen
Now the real changes start But he's not here "Stop, time" Don't rush life so Bring him back And then I'll let him go

Before you half remember what her smile was like, Before you half recall the day you found her, Kiss her now, while she's young, Kiss her now, while she's yours, Kiss her now, while she needs your arms around her.

Kiss her now, Kiss her now, Kiss her now.

CARMEN I've never been known as one of those stupid clucks [pause] Elaine.

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

CARMEN Business

ALL It's a business It's a business It's a business

Context & Lyrics

Dolores Dante is a waitress who boasts the joys of her job.
View Lyrics
There's some as don't care When they put down a plate There's a sound Not with me When they move a chair It'll scrape with a grate On the ground Not with me
I will have my hand right when I place a glass Notice how I stand right as customers pass Serve a demi-tass with a gesture so gentile Or do it again 'til It's near oriental
Da da da da dum dum
It's an art it's an art To be a fine waitress To see that you pleasure each guest There's a twist to my wrist If I let a fork drop Or cut up a porkchop Or serve a New York chop It all needs be stylish and smart That's what makes it an art
I remember one day As I do now and then I had shakes And down I went There with my tray Full of seven prime tenderloin steaks And down I went
But I kept my poise - not one guest heard me fall Never made a noise - not one noise food and all If you have to crawl you give 'em what they like You carry your tray like It's almost ballet-like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
It's an art, it's an art To be a fine waitress Each evening I treasure the test Though my chef may be deaf I stay diplomatic If I give him static He might burn the haddock Or put too much salt in a tart Even that is an art
Tips? HA! Tips are important For people like captains and barmen For them it's a tips, see? For me, I'm a gypsy Just toss me a coin And I suddenly feel like I'm Carmen
So on through the ulcer The backache, the hot, sweaty feet On you go Through, "Is your knife dull, sir?" And, "Madam wants what with her meat?" On you go
Two AM approaches, the curtains descend There among the roaches my act's at an end Every night I tend to find myself crying There's no work so trying Or so satisfying
I tell everybody that I'm a waitress and I'm proud. Somebody comes up to me and says, "Hey you're terrific. How come you're just a waitress?" Ya know what I say to them? I say, "Why? Don't you think you deserve to be served by me?"
It's an art
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS It's an art
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS To be a great waitress
GUESTS Please take care of this
WAITRESS To do without leisure or rest
GUESTS Could we have our check please?
WAITRESS So I zoom
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS Through the room
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS With a flair no one else has
GUESTS Bring some more of these
WAITRESS An air no one else has I swear no one else has My lilt
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS When I say
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS "A la carte"
GUESTS And another order to go
WAITRESS You can see it gives me a glow
GUESTS My plate, miss! My cup, miss!
WAITRESS Ev'ry time I prove I'm a pro
GUESTS I'm late, miss! Hurry up, miss!
WAITRESS Maybe I'm not quite
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS Michelangelo
GUESTS And a bag for my dog
WAITRESS But I'm not just a waitress
GUESTS You were great
WAITRESS I'm a one
GUESTS But I'm late
WAITRESS Woman
GUESTS My check please My change please
WAITRESS Show
GUESTS C'mon please Lady, let's go

Context & Lyrics

Edie regrets failing to succeed in New York City, whereas her mother Edith regrets nothing and takes no blame for Edie’s shortcomings.
View Lyrics
EDITH (spoken) I have no complaints. I have everything I ever wanted.

EDIE (spoken) You had a rich husband; you should've stayed with him.

EDITH (spoken) I had a perfect marriage... beautiful children... terribly successful marriage, I never had a fight in my life.

EDIE (spoken) Ha!

EDITH (spoken) I had a very, very happy, satisfying life.

EDIE (spoken) Can't be done. You can't have your cake and eat it, too. You can't.

EDITH (spoken) Ohhhh yes you can. I most certainly did have my cake and eat it, down to the last crumb.

(sung) What good is cake You have but never eat? I never could Deny myself a sweet, So I sliced my life And licked my knife And ate the cake I had.

EDIE (spoken) Can't be done, I'm telling you...

EDITH Two perfect sons I thoroughly enjoyed An absent spouse And cats to fill the void, And the tri-state's best Accompanist Oh yes, I ate the cake I had.

Moist. Light. Gaily decorated. Every tasty morsel, Savored, chewed and masticated.
Young. Bright. Rich and thin and clever. Like a second helping? Sister, would I ever!

EDIE (spoken) I'll probably be an old maid until I die. I'll sit around with cats the rest of my life.

EDITH (spoken) When are you gonna learn, Edie? You're in this world, you know! You're not out of the world!

(sung) The days are gone When money grew on trees. The money tree Came down with elm disease. But at my age, ducks, For my two bucks I'll eat the cake I have And like it. I'll eat the cake I have.

EDIE (spoken) I think the saddest thing was my not marrying. During the war, my best friend, she was a nurse with the Red Cross... she met somebody overseas in a hospital. A Marine. Lost both of his legs at Iwo Jima. Romance was inevitable, really, given the situation. But I couldn't travel. Mother wasn't well during the war, you see.

EDITH (spoken) Gerald Gettys worshipped you - and those two nice Rockefeller fellas-

EDIE (spoken) They were horrible! Horrible!

EDITH (spoken) You just didn't want to get married. Now it's all blamed on me.

EDIE (spoken) I missed out on everything.

EDITH Gripe. Groan. Point the famous finger. Life is disappointing, Put the parent through the wringer.

Sulk. Moan. Blame it on the mother. When I'm dead and buried You won't get another.

EDIE (spoken) I met a Count, in Greenwich Village. He was a poet and a playwright, and he said, "Edith, I want to make an honest woman out of you." I thought that was very decent.

EDITH (spoken) He didn't have a nickel in his trousers! Not a nickel!

EDIE (spoken) Mother despised him. Gave him the pink slip. To think, I coulda been a Countess - Countess Edith!

EDITH Enough with all Your celebrated loves. You had two hands. You could have modeled gloves. Is it my fault that Your cake fell flat? That you're unmarried, Bald and fat?

As the world waltzed by And Edie sat... I ate the cake I had And loved it.
Oh, I ate the cake I had, No thanks to daddy. I ate the cake... I had.

EDIE (spoken) Sometimes I think I have the saddest life...

I know you, your name is Sue But who am I? I've gotta find out At least I'm gonna try

I'm going back Where I can be me At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

They've got a great big switchboard there Where it's just hello, goodbye It may be dull But there I can be just me, myself and I

A little modeling on the side Yes, that's where I'll be At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

And if anybody asks for Ella, Mella or Mom Tell them that I'm goin' back where I came from To the B.T. Bras-se-ière Company

Goodbye everybody Goodbye Madame Grimaldi Goodbye Junior Mallett Santa Claus is a-hittin' the road

Listen to your mama, mama, mama Eat your spinach baby Eat your spinach baby By the load

La petite bergère restaurant adieu Je ne reviendrai jamais, jamais, jamais C'est tout fini Adieu to you

So, goodbye Max, to your dogs and your cats To the Duke of Windsor and His Duchess

Bye bye Barton and Kitchell and Hastings At last you're out of my clutches

I'll miss you but you'll carry on You'll never know that I've gone

I'm a-going back Where I can be me At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

And while I'm sitting there I'll hope that I find out Just what Ella Peterson is all about In that Shangri-La of lacy lingerie

A little modeling on the side At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company Send me my mail dere! To the Bonjour Tristesse Company

Context & Lyrics

After Michael criticizes Agnes’ expensive shopping habits, the wife contemplates being a saucy divorcee.
View Lyrics

That pompous, pompous, pompous, pompous ass!! Now's the time for that hat. The one I've been saving for all these years.

An eighty-five dollar hat! What do you think of that! Thirteen feathers of the pigeon family! And a bird of paradise plume!

I hid this hat for four whole years. In this great big box at the foot of the bed - Right here in this very same room! But now, my spouse, it's out of the box, And I'm gonna tell you what; If I am going to go to pot - This pot is gonna be HOT!

Say - who's that racy, middle-aged lady, Peeking underneath her veil? Why, don't you know? That's Flaming Agnes. (Her husband up and left her)

Who's that pale, available matron? Underneath the peacock's tail? Why, can't you guess? That's Flaming Agnes. (Emancipated lady!)

Used to find her sittin' in the kitchen. Mousy housewife was her name. But the day her husband up and left her - Agnes started to flame!

Now they say that nothing can save her - And they blame her husband for the blazing shame of Flaming Agnes! (vulgar dance) Fresh!

Used to find her tendin' to the kiddies; Up to here in Cream of Wheat! But the day her husband up and left her, That's the day that Agnes turned the heat one! Now she flames from night till early mornin'! While he slaves to raise the alimony He must pay, to Flaming Agnes!

Aurora, a diva whose role as the Spider Woman intimidates her lover Molina, gives her deadly kiss as the curtain closes.
View Lyrics
SPIDER WOMAN Sooner or later You're certain to meet In the bedroom, the parlor or even the street There's no place on earth You're likely to miss Her kiss
Sooner or later In sunlight or gloom When the red candles flicker She'll walk in the room And the curtains will shake and the fire will hiss Here comes her kiss
And the moon grows dimmer At the tide's low ebb And her black beads shimmer And you're aching to move But you're caught in the web Of the Spider Woman In her velvet cape You can scream But you cannot escape
Sooner or later your love will arrive And she touches your heart You're alert and alive But there's only one pin That can puncture such bliss Her kiss
Sooner or later you bathe in success And your minions salute They say nothing but "YES" But your power is empty It fades like the mist Once you've been kissed
And the moon grows dimmer At the tide's low ebb And your breath comes faster And you're aching to move But you're caught in the web Of the Spider Woman In her velvet cape
You can run You can scream You can hide But you cannot escape!

Lucy the Slut makes her seductive entrance at a nightclub show.
View Lyrics
LUCY: I can make you feel special When it sucks to be you. I can make you feel special For an hour or two.
Your life's a routine that repeats each day. No one cares who you are or what you say. And sometimes you feel like you're nobody, But you can feel like somebody with me.
PRINCETON: Wow!
LUCY: Yeah, they're real. When we're together the earth will shake And the stars will fall into the sea. So come on, baby, let down your guard.
When your date's in the bathroom, I'll slip you my card. I can tell just by looking that you've got it hard For me! For me! For me! For me! For me! For me!
I can tell just by looking that you are especially hard for me!

Queenie tells Mr. Black that she has become used to Burr's brutish behavior.
View Lyrics
QUEENIE I know it's wrong I know he's rough I don't know what to do But we've been through enough I know it's time And yet I play Maybe I like it this way.

I see his pain I hear his cry He pulls me to the edge But I don't ask him why I understand And I obey Maybe I like it this way.

I like the way he laughs His strange and silent stare I like the way he moves The way he's always there The way he calls my name The way he takes control I like the way this man has stirred my soul:

"When I first met Burrs, he was grand. You understand? But I was scared and awfully lonely. Hungry. And hopeful. How could I know?"

Maybe tomorrow it comes crashing down Maybe next week I'll find another clown Maybe I'll try to go a different way But look who's sitting here today.

If I could change If I could grow I'd ask for nothing more And through that door I'd go But if I'm through Why do I stay?

Maybe he wants me Maybe he needs me Maybe he loves me Maybe I like it this way.

Lily, who is married, flirts with a thief at a nightclub.
View Lyrics
THE WIFE: (sung) Friday night down on Houston, In a spot called Bamboo Jack’s, Everyone was doin’ the mambo And drinkin’ Golden Cadillacs. Sally was there with her Daddy. But Daddy was in a funk ‘Cause Sally met up with and took a shine To a hunk from East Podunk. And Daddy cried, “Hey, Whatcha doin’ watcha doin’? What’s he got I don’t got? All I see’s American cheese. He’ll melt when you get hot.”

And Sally said: “I see what I wanna see. I know what I wanna know. I don’t need you To tell me what’s true If you don’t like it, Daddy, You can blow, blow, blow, blow, blow!”

Saturday night at the same place. They roll up the bamboo rug. Everyone was doin’ the limbo, Except Sally and her Podunk Plug. Seems he took a shine to some chicken Shakin’ her tom-tom-tom. Sally saw that and—guacamole— She exploded like the hydrogen bomb.

She cried, “Hey, hey watcha doin’ watcha doin’? What’s she got that I lack? That chicken is thin And meaner than sin And uglier than Bamboo Jack!”

The Husband/The Band: (sung) And he said!

The Wife: (sung) “I see what I wanna see I know what I wanna know. I don’t need you To tell me what’s true If you don’t like it, baby, You can blow blow blow blow blow blow blow blow!

I see what I wanna see I know what I wanna know I don’t need you To tell me what’s true – If you don’t like it baby baby baby baby ba-ba-baby you can blow!”

Any time you laugh Any time you cry Any time you hear a sound When you`re on the grass Lying on the ground Any time you wash your hands I`ll be around

I`ll be there on the baseball field Though I`m well concealed I`ll be out there cheering I`ll be there in the books you read It is guaranteed I`m not disappearing fast Any time No not any time

And I am there each morning I am there each fall I am present without warning And I`m watching it all Yes I`m watching it all Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh And I am there in music I am there in sky I don`t why this thing did happen But this much is clear Any time or anywhere I am there

Any time you pray Any time you fight Any time you`ve gained a pound Any time it`s day Any time it`s night Any time the earth moves I`ll be around

I`ll be there in the maple trees I`m a summer breeze On a perfect evening I`ll be there when you celebrate When the world seems great I`ll be waiting by your side Any time Yes! Any time

And I am there each morning I am there each fall I present without warning And I`m watching it all Yes I`m watching it all Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

And I am there in flowers I am there in snow I don`t know why this thing happened But this much is clear Any time you cry Any time you sing For anything I`ll be there Each morning I`ll be there each fall I don`t why this thing happened But this much is clear

Be aware I am there I am there I am there I am there

I am there I am there I am there

Context & Lyrics

Marcy tells Austin that in spite of his many flaws, she still loves him.
View Lyrics
MARCY When you first told me you loved me I was more than just a little bit surprised But then you left and I realized There was something about you

Something, so that I couldn`t live without you And even though you`re just a little bit pretentious Even though you`re more traditional than my dad Even though you drove me crazy from hello You touch a part of me I didn`t even know I had

And so, I need to say I want you anyway I want you anyway Even though this might not be the perfect way to tell you But, perfection never was what I did best Two months ago, I never would have guessed That I`d compare to `you know who` But now I know I belong with you

And even though I think your way of life is different Even though there`s not a single thing we share Even though you`re not like anyone I know You take me to a place I didn`t even know was there

And so, I need to say I choose you anyway I choose you anyway Even though the night when I first met you You were freakish Now look at us, we both have come so far You`re not different I`m not different But, it`s all together different `Cause I love you in spite of who you are

And even though you`re so much paler than my dream man Even though you`re such a dork and I don`t feel the way I should Even though I should stop, well here I go I love you in a way I didn`t even know I could

And so, I need to say I love you anyway I love you anyway Even though

Context & Lyrics

A woman is blasting her unfaithful lover.
View Lyrics
There he goes as usual, my man Breaking my foolish heart I really don't know what to do about him I've told myself I've got to do without him

There he goes as usual, my man Tearing my heart apart He's made my life a mess I've got to do this I guess

Goodbye Joe, from here I kiss you Goodbye Joe, I hope I don't miss you

If you had been on the square And had treated me fair And we?d not had a tiff If you had not said I should go and jump right off The nearest cliff

If you had stayed off the make And you never had taken To coming home stiff If I had not smelled perfume With a nasty unfamiliar whiff

I'm gonna miss you, baby Things could've been teriff Ah, what's the diff?

If you had not had the cheek To stay out for a week Saying, "Back in a jiff" If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you have And you were And you went And you did And so goodbye

If I had not seen you Take Geraldine on the lake In your flat-bottomed skiff If you were not out with Sue With your arms around her bare midriff

If I had not seen you pen sexy letters To Gwen in your own hieroglyph If you had not left me home When had two seats for South Pacif

I'm gonna miss you, baby You were too darn prolif Ah, what's the diff?

If you were not such a hound Who when game was around Always picked up the sniff If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you were And you have And you went And you did And so, goodbye

If when I asked where you'd been You had not cliffed my chin With a beautiful biff Hey, if I had not always found purple Lipstick on your handkerchief

If you had not told me lies And then looked in my eyes With a smile beautif If when I caught you with Kate You had not said, ?It?s of no signif?

I'm gonna miss you, baby And I could get specif Ah, what's the diff?

If the best years of my life Weren't spent as your wife With no marriage certif If you were not such a two-timing guy

If you weren't If you hadn't

If you didn't If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't

But you had And you were And you have And you went And you did

And so goodbye!
