Bell rings* [Abigail, spoken] Hello? Ma Riley? [Ma Riley, spoken] No! [Abigail, spoken] I’m sorry, no? [Ma Riley, spoken] Go away! [Abigail, spoken] Um, I have money... [Ma Riley, sung] Won’t you come inside my love? Come and take a seat, my dear Let me bring the girls in, the samples, I’ve ample examples to show you here I can take your size and shape, drape it in the finest of tastes Give you grace and I’ll waste no expense For dispensing your waist Cover up or emphasise I can make you mesmerize With a little tweak here, a pinch in of inches, you’ll tantalize I can take your fantasies Make a few realities happen in fashion you’ll find it all here Tied at the seams All of your dreams I can put a price on them At the Modest Modiste (Spoken) Now, was it something in particular? Bonnet, bodice or bustle? I could rustle you up a lovely ball gown, something classy perhaps? [Abigail, spoken] Oh actually, I’m getting married [Ma Riley, spoken] *Gasps* A wedding dress!

(Sung) What a nice surprise my love, what a lucky man my dear Aren’t you just the sweetest intended I’ve tended so help me, that much is clear You’ll shall the best in stock Not another word on the price my advice is a marginal fee Mid-marginally Take it from a girl who knows What a woman says in clothes Says a little more than what she says when she says what she tries to say Even on the best of days Let us take the burden of of speaking and dash it with sequins, my dear Layered with lace Perfectly placed, I can put a price on your every wish The best there is my sweet At the Modest Modiste Oh how I remember Back when I was young, a first time bride Strong, sweet and tender Was the man I stood beside But how was I to know That by turn of spring I’d be widowed, him buried with nothing but credit A loss that I’d buried, survived to inherit Alone and in doubt and with thousands of tears Bequeathed and burdened all of my years [Seamstresses] One day makes a lifetime In the sunshine, or in rain And only the best kind of seamstress can stress how a dress and success are the same [Ma Riley] One way to be certain Have a future in the sun Is to open and empty your heart to Ma Riley She’ll wrap it in brocade and taffeta, cotton, organza or chiffon, some velvet, a strip of damask will be quite nice, a basque at the right place A suitor pursuits a beaut such as you [Instrumental] Here, order their dreams Lined at the seams Reams of revelry Yes I can put a price on your every wish, I’m the best there is my sweet Wrong? I can make it right, anything you like Come and see a visionary for a little fee With a guarantee of a little happiness Yes, I can decorate your decolletage I can take the small and the large Need to turn a hem, get a little bend With a certain trend or two Come to the very best You can get a dress Don’t you worry All of your doubts are released At the Modest Modiste The Modest Modiste The Modest Modiste

Soy un presidiario no tengo ya fuerza del mundo olvidado aguardo el final Aquí nadie importa no soy más que un hombre destruyan mi nombre me queda mi fe Nadie sabe si viviré o en la cárcel moriré tan solo lo sabe quien todo lo ve Aunque me quiten mi casa y mi gente Yo tengo conmigo al Dios de Israel Yo sé que vendrá a mi alma la paz pues me han prometido mi tierra y mi hogar

Somebody else may spend her life In search of the perfect butter knife To pair with the proper fork and proper spoon Don't laugh, but I'd rather read Rousseau. And Emerson, Carlyle, and Thoreau; Right here in my father's chair I've read The sort of ideas that cloud my head with Daydreams Big and Small I have daydreams, Don't we all? When I read Thoreau, I smiled He said "All good things are free and wild" Your Texas Now, I don't know Your Texas But even so, I imagine that a man can be Can be More independent , WIld and free In Texas The last frontier is Texas And unlike here There's a great unknown Just waiting there For those who wish to Dream and dare Your Texas BICK: Big as all New England Plus New Jersey and New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio--- LESLIE: Your Texas... BICK: Mountain ranges, sweeping beaches Canyons, rivers, planes--- And century plants That blossom Ev'ry twenty years LESLIE: Imagine BICK: Imagine LESLIE: Imagine: Blossoming at forty Blossoming at sixty Blossoming at eighty That's how I want to live... LESLIE (SPOKEN) "Imagine a place in the wilderness, unspoiled by politics, where people are truly equal." LESLIE (SUNG): These kinds of ideas, Don't laugh, they give me Daydreams Wild and new. I'll have daydreams Thanks to you And tonight I'll dream Some more Of a place I've never Been before: Reata Your country, Your Texas... Leslie: Somebody else may spend her life In search of the perfect Butter knife Not I Not I

Now I see you in the window Of a carriage, then a train. Still my mind cannot accept that In your grave you must remain. I hear your voice then turn and See a stranger's form and face. Must I wander on tormented Place to place to place to place! Where can I go that you won't find me? Why can't I find a place to hide? Why do you have to chase me, haunt me? Every step there beside me. Where in the world, tell me, where in the world Can I live without your love? Why on the earth, tell me why on the earth Should I stay now that you are gone? Why did I have to meet you, love you? Why can't I rid you from my mind? Why did you have to want me? Won't you let me put my life behind me? How in the world, tell me how in the world Can I live without your love? Why on the earth, tell me, why on the earth Should I stay now that you are gone? Now that you are...

Close every door to me, Hide all the world from me Bar all the windows And shut out the light Do what you want with me, Hate me and laugh at me Darken my daytime And torture my night If my life were important I Would ask will I live or die But I know the answers lie Far from this world Close every door to me, Keep those I love from me Children of Israel Are never alone For I know I shall find My own peace of mind For I have been promised A land of my own Close every door to me, Hide all the world from me Bar all the windows And shut out the light Joseph Just give me a number Instead of my name Forget all about me And let me decay I do not matter, I'm only one person Destroy me completely Then throw me away If my life were important I Would ask will I live or die But I know the answers lie Far from this world Close every door to me, Keep those I love from me Children of Israel Are never alone For we know we shall find Our own peace of mind For we have been promised A land of our own

What do I say? What Do I Do? How Will I Ever Hope To Fare? How Can I Stay So Close To You Knowing Now That Your Place Is In Another's Embraces, In Another Man's Care? I Should Be Gone Far From This Hell Till Not A Trace Of You Survives Yet I'll Stay On For I Know Well Though You've Left Me Behind You One Day Troubles Will Find You And When That Day Arrives I'll Be There For To Me There's No Sorrow Worse To Bear Than A Life Lived Apart. I'll Be There Come The Mists On The Morrow I'll Be There By Your Side And Deep WIthin Your Heart He'll Keep His Wife Dressed Up In Bows Lavished Eternally With Flow'rs. But Whatever Life He Might Propose Will Be Merely Pretending To The Dream Never-Ending That WIll Always Be Ours. I'll Be There Though I Know That It's Madness, Heart Laid Bare, Stripped Of Pride, Yet Still Proud. I'll Be There In The Depths Of My Sadness I'll Be There Ever Steeled Unyielding And Unbowed. Go And Marry A Man You Don't Love If That Pleases You. Throw Away, For A Cause, All The Joys We Have Known I Thought Love's More Than Faith, More Than Clan, More Than Anything Let His Kiss Keep You Warm I'll Be Fine On My Own... Is It Me I'm Deceiving? Mad Or Not, I'll Stay True. I'll Be There... [Intrumental Measures] I'll Be There, Heaven Speed Me, By Your Side, As You Need Me I'll Be There For You.

A dream Does everybody have one Mine is so outrageous I'm reaching for the sun Look at me The girl who wants it all The girl who wants to fly And never have to fall Sometimes it feels like it's dissapearring A dream that quickly fades away I can't wait until tomorrow become today Hello Is anybody out there Is anybody listening Does anybody care Sometimes it feels like it's dissapearring A dream that quickly fades away I'll climb into the costume that I'm wearing And make believe I'm fine Pretend to toe the line I can't wait until tomorrow becomes today Why does it have to follow? I can't wait until tomorrow becomes today

Lyrics 0:04 All the men in my life keep getting killed by Candarian demons First there was Ed, a really nice guy. Didn't talk too much, but I didn't mind. I was all set to marry him But before we could consummate, Ed was killed by A Candarian demon. 0:35 Then it was daddy Who I could count on. He loved to read the Necronomicon. He also enjoyed. Playing board games. But he can't sink my battleship now Cuz dad was killed by A Candarian demon -CUT VERSE OPTION- It was high school. Senior prom. Going with my steady, Howie Brom. A perfect night Like I always dreamed But when Stairway to Heaven began Howe was killed by A Candarian Demon ________________\\ 1:05 all my college boyfriends and my one night stands My male co-workers and platonic gay friends Every date I go on ends in demon bloodshed And now that I've met you two guys, I know you'll soon be dead! 1:25 They say love is cruel And I believe them My heart's always broken Cuz the men in my life -- and I mean all the men in my life Every single man in my life Keeps getting killed By Candarian demons!

RITA: I was brought up in tafetta dresses And taught to be pretty and precious Spending my playtimes with plastic princesses Who all had bodies just utterly ludicrous Miniscual waists and huge boobs And it's all nippless and no creases I mean Jesus it's pretty confusing Especially at 6. In that fairytale world all the girls end up happy ever after. Wooing their knights in shining armour. But some nights down the track You can bet they'll be trapped Spending nights 'n shining armour. While their knights spend their nights at the bar Or at a ball with some harlot I'm not bitter it's just better That I don't fall for all that romantic bullshit Now that I'm older. Though I don't mind the thought of being tossed over a shoulder And trotted off to a mansion by some ruggedly handsome man in a fireman helmet And have him just use me for sex. As I say - it's a little complex. One day, some day my prince may come But it doesn't seem likely But even if he came and he liked me It's likely he'd be not quite my type. Some day, they say He'll come ridin' up on the back of a horse But of course I'm allergic to horses How will I tell him He'll just have to sell him. I went to school with a girl I remember her well She was pretty smart - and pretty as hell Her folks had a farm But she wouldn't stay of course She wanted prince charming So she went to LA of course Managed to seduce a Famous actor or producer Shacked up in a house in the hills With a cat and a juicer - and a fancy car - and a tennis court. But the guy wasn't quite The catch she'd thought she caught. He treats her like trash Then you know the drill Takes his cat and his cash And finds some younger girl So she's left with a stupid corvette And an empty swimming pool Which she fills with regret Smart girl but kinda dumb... And I'd rather be lonely Than sit on my fanny Waiting for my prince to come- One day, some day He'll come sweeping in And sweep me off my feet And spend the next 4 decades Wanting to cheat on me Getting less handsom And fighting his dragons. He'd know what to wear He'd have a full head of hair And his eyes would be brown Or blue. Or green. Well, I dont care. And his body would be toned with those Pecks you get at the gym But he won't spend all of his time at the gym. And he'll love reading books, He'll be an excellent cook, He'll be good looking but not to aware of his looks. He'll be tender but tough And smart but not smug And attentive but not fawning And he'll smell good in the morning - 'n he'll dance, -and like hiking and baking And biking I'm not picky I just ask that he likes me And I like him and I'd rather be alone If the only other option Is to come and settly down With some condescending clown With a great rating from some dating service Some self professing Mr. Perfect Another narcissistic legend Made a million out of hedge funds Another sexually inaffectual Self-obsessing metrosexual Pseudo-intellectual Getting drunk and existential. Every time the steelers lose a game Thanks - but perhaps another day. One day, some day My prince may come But I won't hold my breath There's only divorcees And wierdos left And weird is fine But not all the time One day, Someday my prince will come So the fairytale said 30 years later it's still in my head That if I screw a frog I will wake up in a four poster bed.

Here's the lyrics I used for an audition: I'd like to be a princess on a throne To have a country I can call my own And a king Who's lusty and requires a fling With a female thing Great! Men will be men Let me turn on the gas I caught them in the den With Marvin grabbing Whizzer's ass Oh sure, I'm sure, he's sure He did his best I mean he meant to be what he was not The things he was are things which I forgot He's a queen I'm a queen Where is my crown? I'm breaking down I'm breaking down My life is shitty and my kid seems like an idiot to me I mean that's sick I mean he's great! It's me who is the matter Talking madder than the maddest hatter I've rethought my talks with Marv And one fact does emerge Oh, I think I like his shrink So that is why I might turn to drink I'm on the brink of breaking down I'm breaking down! Down! down! I only want to love a man who can love me Or like me Or help me Help me Marvin was never mine He took his meetings in the boy's latrine I used to cry He'd make a scene I'd rather die than dry clean Marvin's wedding gown I'm breaking down I'm breaking down Down, down The only thing that's breaking up is my family The only thing that's breaking up is my family But me I'm breaking down

When I look at you, what I always see Is the face of someone else who once belonged to me Still I can hear him laugh And even though that melody plays on, he's gone When I look at you, he is standing there I can almost breathe him in like summer in the air Why do you smile his smile? That heaven I'd forgotten eases through, in you If you could look at me once more With all the love you felt before If you and I could disappear into the past And find that love we knew I'd never take my eyes away from you When I look at you, he is touching me I would reach for him, but who can hold a memory? And love isn't everything That moonlight on the bed will melt away, someday Oh, you were once that someone Who I followed like a star Then suddenly you changed, And now I don't know who you are Or could it be that I never really knew you from the start? Did I create a dream? Was he a fantasy? Even a memory is paradise for all the fools like me Now, remembering is all that I can do Because I miss him so, when I look at you

Everybody tells me that I'm wrong Sticking with a man like him so long Don't they think that 1 already know that I discovered long ago that He's no good But I'm no good Without him Don't matter what he's done before I keep on comin' back for more He's a fool But I'm a fool About him Believing that he'll change somehow You think I would have learned by now But there's nothing I can do No place I can go He is all I want That is all I know I should cut him loose Oh, but what's the use He's no good But I'm no good without him

I like taxis, I like trains, I like Brooklyn when it rains But I love Betsy I like walking after dark, I like jogs in Prospect Park But I love Betsy I like Shake Shack, I like MOMA, And New Jersey's ripe aroma The parade's when i see 'em and even the DMV And the Brooklyn bridge by bike Heck, there's lots of stuff I like But I love Betsy and she loves me She likes hockey, no I swear She likes guys with thinning hair And I love Betsy She likes pizza and Chinese Louboutin's and mac'n'cheese God, I love Betsy She likes swimming, Writing letters She likes watching double-headers She drinks bourbon and sake And even likes Rocky III I'm amazed and I'm impressed But the thing that I like best is I love Betsy And she loves me Five years I've been in love with Betsy for five years I can't believe she stuck with me What kind of luck have I got? To keep someone like her around Ten years My mom's been dead already for ten years So since she put that curse on me- No, there's no curse, Its not a curse, Forget I said curse, The point is its been long enough, Now it's time to grow up, Mom's in the ground, And look what I've found I like dancing on the pier, I like Broadway, once a year But I love Betsy I like visits to the zoo, I like opera, that's not true But I love Betsy Its been five years and I'm ready, Get the sparklers and confetti Give a wink to the waiter And summon the maître d, Just like Jay-Z and Beyoncé, I will make her my fiancé I love Betsy (La la la la la la la) I love Betsy (La la la la la la la) I love Betsy And Betsy loves me I'm a schmuck and betsy loves me Doesn't matter what I do, I know its true I could never live without her Betsy loves me Its amazing, Betsy loves me And tonight I'm gunna show her Just how proud I am to know her There's no danger, There's no drama, There's no curse, And there's no Mama Put my problems in the past I'm a grown-up man at last I'm the luckiest guy from the Bronx to the islands So laugh if you wanna, This whole town is gunna see, That I love Betsy Sorry Mama, I love Betsy And she loves me
