original broadway cast of rent - santa fe lyrics

[angel]
new york city-

[mark]
uh huh

[angel]
center of the universe

[collins]
sing it, girl-

[angel]
times are sh-tty
but i’m pretty sure they can’t get worse

[mark]
i hear that

[angel]
it’s a comfort to know
when you’re singing the hit the road blues
that anywhere else you could possibly go
after new york would be a pleasure cruise

[collins]
now you’re talking

well, i’m thwarted by a metaphysic puzzle
and i’m sick of grading papers that i know
and i’m shouting in my sleep, i need a muzzle
all this misery pays no salary, so
let’s open up a restaurant in santa fe
oh, sunny santa fe would be nice
we’ll open up a restaurant in santa fe
and leave this to the roaches and mice

oh–oh

[all]
oh–

[angel]
you teach?

[collins]
yeah, i teach. computer age philosophy
while my students would rather watch tv

[angel]
america

[all]
america!

[collins]
you’re a sensitive aesthete
brush the sauce onto the meat
you could make the menu sparkle with a rhyme
you could drum a gentle drum
i could seat guests as they come
chatting not about heidegger, but wine!

let’s open up a restaurant in santa fe
our labors would reap financial gain

[all]
gain, gain, gain

[collins]
we’ll open up a restaurant in santa fe
and save from devastation our brains

[homeless]
save our brains

[all]
we’ll pack up all our junk
and fly so far away
devote ourselves to projects that sell
we’ll open up a restaurant in santa fe
forget this cold bohemian h-ll
oh–
oh–

[collins]
do you know the way to santa fe?
you know, tumbleweeds… prairie dogs…

[all]
yeah
