andrew lloyd webber, tom francis & grace hodgett young - scene: the back lot lyrics

Loading...

[betty]
t+h+e, e+n+d
i can’t believe it, i finished my first script
shouldn’t we open some champagne?

[joe]
the best i can offer is a stroll to the water cooler at the end of the lot

[betty]
sounds good to me
i love the back lot here
it’s all cardboard, all hollow, all phony
all done with mirros
i think i love it better than any street in the world
i spent my childhood here

[joe]
what were you?
child actress?

[betty]
no, but my family always expected me to become a great star
i had ten years of dramatic lessons, diction, dancing, everything you could think of
and then, the studio made a test

[joe]
that is the saddest story i ever heard
[betty]
not at all
i was born two blocks from here
my father was head electrician at the studio until he died
and mother still works in wardrobe

[joe]
second generation, huh?

[betty]
third, grandma did stunt work

[joe]
i guess it kind of is exciting, at that
oh, finishing a script

[betty]
what?

[joe]
are you alright?

[betty]
sure

[joe]
something’s a matter, isn’t it?
[betty]
i had a telegram from artie

[joe]
is something wrong?

[betty]
he wants me to come out to tennessee
he says it would only cost two dollars to get married in clinch

[joe]
what’s stopping you?
now that we finished the script
you’re getting married, isn’t that what you wanted?

[betty]
not anymore

[joe]
don’t you love artie?

[betty]
of course i do
i’m just not in love with him anymore, that’s all

[joe]
why not? what happened?
[betty]
you did
