Small World lyrics
by Audra McDonald
[ROSE, spoken]
Funny
[HERBIE, spoken]
What?
[ROSE, spoken]
Us
I like you, but I don't want marriage
You like me, but you don't want show business
[HERBIE, spoken]
That seems to leave you there and me here
[ROSE, spoken]
Ooh, it all depends on how you look at it
You look at what we don't have
I look at what we do have
[ROSE]
Here I been looking for a suitcase
Just like that
What a coincidence
[HERBIE, spoken]
Quite a coincidence
[ROSE]
Here I been looking for an agent
Just like you
[HERBIE]
What a coincidence
[ROSE]
We're full of coincidence
Funny, you're a stranger who's come here
Comе from another town
Funny, I'm a stranger myself hеre
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, you're a man who goes traveling
Rather than settling down
Funny, 'cause I'd love to go traveling
Small world, isn't it?
We have so much in common
It's a phenomenon
We could pool our resources
By joining forces
From now on
Lucky, you're a man who likes children
That's an important sign
Lucky, I'm a woman with children
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it?
Small and funny and fine
[WEBER, spoken]
Well, I'm not gonna pay you much money
[ROSE, spoken]
Oh, you'll have to talk about money with Herbie
[WEBER, spoken]
Are you handling her act?
[HERBIE, spoken]
No, I can't
But, I-I can't, I
Yeah, I guess I am
[WEBER, spoken]
I'll be in my office
[ROSE]
We have so much in common
[HERBIE]
It's a phenomenon
[ROSE & HERBIE]
We could pool our resources
By joining forces
From now on
[HERBIE, spoken]
Rose, is that act of yours any good?
[ROSE, spoken]
Good? It's great
And June is sensational
Wait 'til you see it
[ROSE]
Lucky, you're a man who likes children
That's an important sign
Lucky, I'm a woman with children
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it?
[HERBIE]
Isn't it?
[ROSE & HERBIE]
Small and funny and fine
