1992 studio cast of lady, be good! - finale act i lyrics

[josephine, spoken]
d+ckie, darling, don’t you think we better tell them now?

[d+ck, spoken]
no, i think we better wait a little while
that is, i mean—

[bertie, spoken]
oh, miss vanderwater, it’s been a wonderful party

[josephine, spoken]
i’m so glad you enjoyed yourself

[daisy, spoken]
good night, josephine, we must be going

[josephine, spoken]
oh no, don’t go yet
i have something rather important to tell you all
d+ckie trevor and i are engaged to be married

[ensemble, spoken]
oh

[ensemble]
ting+a+ling, the wedding bells will jing+a+ling+a+ling
[men]
for the groom, our d+ckie

[women]
and his bride, our josephine

[ensemble]
ting+a+ling, the wedding bells will sing+a+ling+a+ling
wishing them a future that is happy and serene

[susie, spoken]
d+ck, is this true?

[d+ck, spoken]
is what true?

[susie, spoken]
that you accepted jo vanderwater?

[josephine, spoken]
he accepted me?
how dare you!

[d+ck, spoken]
will you please keep out of this, susie?
[susie, spoken]
i certainly won’t
you’re not in love with jo and she must know it

[josephine, spoken]
did you come here to insult me?

[d+ck, spoken]
shut up, susie, you’re only going to disgrace me in public

[susie, spoken]
i certainly will disgrace you before i let you marry jo vanderwater

[d+ck, spoken]
now it’s no using talking, it’s all settled
shirley, i’m awfully sorry

[shirley, spoken]
d+ck, i want to congratulate you
i hope you’ll be very, very happy

[daisy, spoken]
oh, josephine!
when’s the happy day to be?

[josephine, spoken]
very soon
i don’t believe in long engagements
[ensemble]
make it soon, and take the month that makes a rhyme with “spoon”
that’s the month when newlyweds should take their honeymoon

[ensemble & susie]
make it soon, and take the month (if you hang on to me)
that makes a rhyme with “croon” (while i hang on to you)
that’s the month when everybody (we’ll dance into the sunshine)
feels the world’s in tune (out of the rain)

[watty, spoken]
oh dear, everybody’s singing and i’ve forgotten my music

[susie, spoken]
watty!

[watty, spoken]
what is it?

[susie, spoken]
you know that thing you asked me to do?

[watty, spoken]
you mean the mexican business?

[susie, spoken]
yes
i’ll do it
i have to

[watty, spoken]
you’ll do it?
you’ll impersonate this mexican girl?

[susie, spoken]
if i can

[watty, spoken]
of course you can!
here, all the dope’s in this little red book
study up, sue, and leave everything to me

[watty]
sweet little sue, i knew that you could
i knew that you would for me

[d+ck, spoken]
what is this thing you say you’re going to do?

[susie, spoken]
none of your darn business

[d+ck, spoken]
it certainly is my business
you’ve made me look enough of a fool tonight

[susie, spoken]
listen, birdbrain
anything i might be doing is for your own good

[d+ck, spoken]
i’m not going to have you start off on any wild scheme
with this old four flusher

[d+ck & susie, spoken]
it’s not your place (all you gotta to do is plan)
to battle with the world (i could find myself playing gin rummy)
you know, it’s not (with a jailer)
what do you think (n0body knows)
mother and father would say (the ten commandments)
if they knew? (as though we could act this way)
remember, you’re a tramp (say, listen)
but i’m a tramp, too (some people are born stupid)
aren’t you ashamed of yourself? (but you abuse the privilege)

[d+ck, spoken]
why is it every time we’re having a good fight
somebody has to play that tune?

[ensemble]
fascinating rhythm
you got me on the go
fascinating rhythm
i’m all a+quiver

what a mess you’re making
the neighbors want to know
why i’m always shaking
just like a flivver

each morning i get up with the sun
start a+hopping
never stopping
to find at night no work has been done

once it didn’t matter
but now you’re doing wrong
when you start to patter
i’m so unhappy

won’t you take a day off?
decide to run along
somewhere far away off
and make it snappy

oh, how i long to be the one i used to be
fascinating rhythm
fascinating rhythm
fascinating rhythm
fascinating rhythm
fascinating rhythm
stop picking on me!
oh
