original cast of broadway bounty hunter - spin those records lyrics

Loading...

[annie]
i used to be new
everyone would cheer when i start to sing
and the papers called me the next big thing

i used to have you
they loved me a lot but you loved me most
i was always the subject of every toast

but now you’re gone and now n0body’s cheering
the next big thing no longer lies ahead
each day is an attempt at persevering
i wish each day was yesterday instead

and i saved a dusty forty+five
one that captures a voice from another time
a memento of when i was in my prime

back then when you were alive
i could play it, sure, but i never do
’cause the music just makes me think of you

anyway, i guess that it’s been a while
since my forty+fives would have been in style
oh well, as far as i can tell

they don’t spin those records anymore
they don’t spin those records anymore
and even if they i’d be too scared to sing along
’cause what if i’ve forgotten the song

i used to be strong
and my voice would k!ll in any key
i never had to take the harmony

i used to belong
when the soundtrack at parties was sure to be
one that featured an album that featured me

they’d play but not today

[annie & ensemble]
they don’t spin those records anymore
no they don’t
they don’t spin those records anymore
no they don’t
and even if they i’d be too scared to sing along
’cause what if i’ve forgotten the song

no!

time moves forward and it moves fast
time! oh yeah
vinyl is a thing of the past
is a thing of the past
is living proof that nothing can last
hey, yeah yeah

the record long since played
is sure to crack and fade

i don’t want to be young
no i wanna go and i want a place
where the eyes don’t roll when i show my face

there’s so many songs to be sung
but i’m much too tired to generate
a sound or a voice and it’s just too late for me

so regretfully
she don’t spin those records anymore
i won’t spin those records anymore
she don’t spin those records anymore
leaving them inside the dusty drawer

even if she did
i wouldn’t wanna sing along
’cause i know that they’ve forgotten my song

my song
my song

and records make it clear to see
that the song’s forgotten me

[annie, spoken]
goodnight, charlie
