jonathan larson - happy new year lyrics
mark
pan to the padlocked door. new year’s rocking eve. the
breaking-back-into-the-building party…
mimi
how long til next year?
roger
three and half minutes…
mimi
i’m giving up my vices
i’m going back – back to school
eviction or not
this week’s been so hot
that long as i’ve got you
i know i’ll be cool
i couldn’t crack the love code, dear
’til you made the lock on my heart
explode
it’s gonna be a happy new year
a happy new year
mark
coast is clear
you’re supposed to be working
that’s for midnight
where are they?
there isn’t much time
mimi
maybe they’re dressing
i mean what does one wear that’s
apropos
for a party – that’s also a crime
maureen
chips, anyone?
mark
you can take the girl out of hicksville
but you can’t take the hickville out
of the girl
maureen
my riot got you on tv
i deserve a royalty
mimi
be nice you two
or no god awful champagne
maureen
don’t mind if i do
no luck?
roger
bolted plywood, padlocked and
chained
a total dead end
maureen
just like my ex-girlfriend
(on cell phone)
honey…?
i know you’re there…
please pick up the phone
are you okay?
it’s not funny
it’s not fair!
how can i atone?
are you okay?
i lose control
but i can learn to behave
give me one more chance
let me be your slave
i’ll kiss your doc martens
let me kiss your doc martens
your every wish i will obey
(joanne enters)
joanne
that might be okay
down girl
heel… stay
i did a bit of research
with my friends at legal aid
technically, you’re squatters
there’s hope
but just in case
mark & joanne
rope!
mark
we can hoist a line–
joanne
to the fire escape–
mark
and tie off at
mark & joanne
that bench!
maureen
i can’t take them as chums
joanne
start hoisting… wench
roger
i think i should be laughing
yet i forget
forget how to begin
i’m feeling something inside
and yet i still can’t decide if i should hide
or make a wide open grin
last week i wanted just to disappear
my life was dust
but now it just may be a happy new year
a happy new year
(collins enters with angel)
collins
bond – james bond
angel
and p-ssy galore – in person
mimi
p-ssy – you came prepared
angel
i was a boy scout once
and a brownie
’til some little brat got scared
collins
aha! moneypenny – my martini!
mimi
will bad champagne do?
roger
that’s shaken – not stirred
collins
p-ssy – the bolts
angel
just say the word!
mimi
two minutes left to execute our plan
collins
where’s everyone else?
roger
playing spiderman
mark
ironic close up: tight
on the phone machine’s red light
once the boho boys are gone
the power mysteriously comes on
