The Blob - Part II lyrics
by New Broadway Cast of Merrily We Roll Along
[GUESTS]
Aw!
[GUSSIE, spoken]
Wait, wait, wait
We want to hear it again
Tell them!
[CHARLEY, spoken]
Frank, no
Say, "No"
[FRANK, spoken]
They thought we were great
[CHARLEY, spoken]
And do you know what true greatness is?
It's knowing when to get off
[FRANK, spoken]
I'll sing with you
Come on
[GUSSIE, spoken]
Shh
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
It started out like a song
We started quiet and slow
With no surprise
And then one morning I woke
To realize—
[DORY]
I said, "Joe, this show will be a watershed..."
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
We had a good thing going
[GUSSIE, spoken]
Shh!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
It's not that nothing went wrong:
Some angry moments—
[SCOTTY]
Did you hear—?
[BUNKER]
No kidding—!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
Of course
[TERRY]
You're not serious!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
But just a few
[MARY, spoken]
Shh!
[CHARLEY & FRANK, JOE]
And only moments, no more (Da da da da da)
[GROUP II]
It's a clear case of Tammany politics
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
Because we knew
[GROUP I]
We were stuck in the tunnel till half past six!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
We had this good thing going
[TYLER & TERRY]
It's a show that'll murder 'em in the sticks
[GUESTS' babbling overtakes the singing.]
[GUESTS]
Did you read—?
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
And if I wanted too much
[GUESTS]
It'll never—!
They just don't mix
What we need—!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
Was that such a mistake
[GUESTS]
Did you ever—!
Till half past six!
It's a clear case of Tammany politics
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
At the time?
[GUESTS]
Did you read—?
It'll never—!
They just don't mix!
What we need—!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
You never wanted enough—
[GUESTS]
Did you ever—!
Till half—
[GUSSIE, spoken]
Shh!
[CHARLEY & FRANK]
All right, tough
I don't make
That a crime
[GUEST]
Ah, ha ha ha!
[GROUP I, GROUP II]
Darling! We saw the new—
Darling!
We had the most bad— Did you read—?
It was good It'll never—!
It's the biggest—! They just don't mix!
He's a genius! What we need—!
Well he can't Did you ever—!
But he used to! Till half past six!
It's the dumbest—! It's a show that'll
She's a genius! Murder 'em
It's the best—! It's the first—! In the sticks
He's a genius! It's the least—! It's a clear
She's a genius—! Case of
It's the absolutely lowest—! Tammany
They're a genius! Politics
[GUESTS]
It's the greatest—
It's the single—
It's the only—
It's the perfect—
It's the one—
It's the real—
It's the true—
It's the final—
It's the—
