henry krieger - more than we bargained for lyrics

Loading...

[terry]
some hidden magnet
is pulling me back
back to this strange little show

an invisible force
dragging me off-course
pulling me somewhere
i know i shouldn’t go

i want, i want
i want to see her
i want, i want
to look at her face
i need, i need
i need to see her
that’s why i’m back in this place

[buddy]
we can’t wait to show you
the work we’ve accomplished
you won’t believe your own eyes
meeting each night
at the oddest of hours
but oh, how each hour flies

our two girls have a special gift
i’ve only begun to explore
any clouds of doubt will lift
i think we’re getting more
than we bargained for

[terry, spoken]
we’ll see about that
sounds like you’ve managed okay here

[buddy]
working in the midst
of the strangest folks
they’re helpful
i like them
they get my jokes

i thought they were performers
in a sad, bleak show
but here i am, i fit right in
into a freak show

[terry, spoken]
so, buddy, you finally found a home
have the girls given you any trouble?

[buddy]
well violet is slow
but we work till she gets it
daisy does everything right
i’m more concerned
with some personal questions
i swear i did not invite—

i think violet’s sweet on me
sweet’s very hard to ignore
daisy mentions you with glee
i think we’re getting more
than we bargained for

[terry, spoken]
daisy asks about me?

[buddy, spoken]
only about fifty times a day

[terry, spoken]
ha, you’re kidding

(sung)
she thinks i’ll make her famous
get her foot in the door

[buddy]
i think we’re getting more
than we bargained for

do you think they’re pretty?

[terry]
pretty?

[buddy]
well, they are

[terry]
let’s get ’em flowers

[buddy]
that’s going too far

[terry, spoken]
why?

[buddy]
flowers are romantic
romance is in the air
so beware!

[terry, spoken]
buddy, you’ve got so much to learn

(sung)
you don’t know women

[buddy]
not like them

[terry]
let me set you right

[buddy]
i know more than you think

[terry]
they’ll try to hook you

[buddy, spoken]
oh, come on.

[terry]
but you don’t have to bite
i’ve known lots of women

[buddy]
so i’ve heard

[terry]
the lovely
the gruesome
i’ve seen things
i’ve tried things
but never a twosome!

[buddy]
i’m not interested in that

[terry]
then close your eyes

[buddy, spoken]
what?

[terry]
just a little joke

[buddy]
it’s no joking matter

[terry]
you worry too much

[buddy]
i’m just saying we need to look—

[terry]
look at what?

[buddy]
—look at where this road leads

[terry]
to vaudeville

[buddy]
it’s not right that we overlook their needs
[terry]
we’re giving them
the chance of a lifetime [buddy]

they have needs

[buddy]
are we doing what’s fair and right?

[terry]
yes, we are

[buddy]
wish i could know what’s in store

[terry]
who knows that?

[buddy & terry]
the future should be clear tonight

[buddy]
i think we’re getting more—

[terry]
are we getting more—

[buddy & terry]
than we bargained for
than we bargained for
than we bargained for
