gatsby: an american myth - welcome to the new world (reprise) lyrics

[ensemble and ensemble members]
huh! huh!
huh! huh!
can you hear it roar? huh! huh! huh! huh!
can you hear it roar? huh! huh! huh! huh!
can you hear it roar? huh! huh! huh! huh!
can you hear it roar? huh! huh! huh! huh!

[tom, spoken]
mayhem!

[jordan, spoken]
marvelous!

[daisy, spoken]
you didn’t have to come

[tom, spoken]
yes, i did
who is this ‘gatsby’ guy anyhow, some bootlegger?

[jordan, spoken]
where’d you hear that?

[tom, spoken]
i didn’t hear it, i deduced it
a lot of these newly rich are just criminals, you know
[daisy, spoken]
not gatsby, he’s a self+made man

[tom, spoken]
uh+uh
well, i’d like to know who he really is and what he really does

[gatsby, spoken]
mr. buchanan!
so happy you could join us tonight

[tom, spoken]
you really must have strained yourself putting this…menagerie together

[gatsby, spoken]
barely broke a sweat, old sport, nothing like, uh, what is it you for work?
in case you need any introductions
daisy never told me what it is you actually do

[tom, spoken]
why would you be talking to my wife about what i do?

[gatsby, spoken]
because i know your wife

[tom, spoken]
is that so?
[gatsby, spoken]
so i talk to her

[tom, spoken]
you know, maybe i’ll go wander around seeing who i might know…or get to know

[daisy, spoken]
here, take my pencil in case you need to take down any addresses

[jordan, spoken]
oh, this is going to be delicious

[gatsby]
welcome to the new world
where the town is getting hotter
the cars are getting faster
and the music’s playing louder
and the drinks are getting stronger
hangover’s getting longer
but, oh, it doesn’t matter
‘cause if you have the money you can rise from the dead
don’t like who you are, baby?
be someone else instead

[ensemble]
can you hear it roar?
can you hear it roar?
in the new world you can worship what you want
in the new world you can worship what you want
can you hear it roar?
can you hear it roar?
bigger, better, faster, more
how dare you call us godless
when somebody’s always watching us?
ah ah ah ah
oh, how dare you call us godless
when there’s so many things that shine for us?
ooh!
[daisy and ensemble]
give me noise!
give me life! can you hear it roar?
give me something that echoes this feeling inside! can you hear it roar?
so i reach
for the light can you hear it roar?
for a city that’s singing and burning so bright!

[ensemble]
can you hear it roar?
can you hear it roar?

[jordan]
in the new world there will be new gods
in the new world, anything you want
let’s give ‘em h+ll, girls
give ‘em h+ll
‘cause you can worship so well

[ensemble]
how dare you call us godless
when somebody’s always watching us?
ah ah ah ah!
bigger, better, faster, more
oh, how dare you call us godless
when there’s so many things that shine for us?
ooh!

[daisy & myrtle]
give me noise!
give me life!
give me something that echoes this feeling inside!
so i reach
for the light
for a city that’s singing and burning so bright!

[tom, spoken]
you lose my number?

[myrtle, spoken]
you lose your mind?
that’s all you gotta say to me?
f+ck

[ensemble]
you came here with good intentions
and forgot about our reputations
to shine (?) we can up higher (?)
a city where anything can happen!
huh! hah! oohh
huh! hah! aahh
huh! hah! oohh
huh! hah! aahh
huh!
