TAKE THAT LOOK OFF YOUR FACE
You must be mistaken, it couldn't have been
you couldn't have seen him yesterday.
He's doing some deal up in Baltimore now,
I hate it when he's away.

You must be mistaken, I'm sure that you are.
There's more than one car with stickers on
and lots of young guys wear corduroy pants,
and I'd know if he hadn't gone.

Take that look off your face.
I can see through your smile.
You would love to be right.
I bet you didn't sleep good last night,
couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door.
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before.

If I'm not mistaken, I started last year
I'm not very clear how it began
I noticed a change, but I just closed my eyes,
as only a woman can.
No, I didn't dig deep.
I did not want to know.
Well, you don't interfere
when you're scared of the things you might hear.
When he's back you think I will end it there and then
Well, my fair weather friend, you're wrong again!

Take that look off your face!
I can see through your smile.
You would love to be right.
I bet you didn't sleep good last night,
couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door.
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before.
Take that look off your face
I can see through your smile.
You would love to be right.
I bet you didn't sleep good last night,
couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door.
Well, I've got news for you: I knew before!

LET ME FINISH
Just what time of night do you call this?
No, I'm not all right I have had enough don't you interrupt
Let me finish, I said let me finish.
I'm tired of waiting for something to happen
Echo! And your ties a little too perfect.
No more alibis, no more stupid lies, what a fool I've been!
Let me finish, I said let me finish.
Wait a minute you'll get your turn,
it's not often I get the chance to talk.
I forget the last time I saw a person the avenue might as well be Mars!
Never thought I would ever say,
keep Manhattan, give me Muswell Hill.
I'd have had more fun with Neville Braithwaite
That old randy Neville always put me first!
(No I don't want a drink.) Not yet.
I've rehearsed these next lines for ages.
Why do I feel cold? I suppose it's nerves.
I don't need a drink.
It's not the end of the world if you lose me!
I don't want to dance with your boss once a year
I don't care if the neighbours hear!
You always say us British are too reserved
I need a change, I must do something new
Or I will go mad, not now.
Let me finish.
You'll get your chance to call me a child.
I don't want to hurt you. Believe me
It hurts when I hurt you.
This isn't a joke, for Gods sake stop smiling
I want kids. You won't even talk about them.
Come back, can't we sit and talk this thing over?

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD (IF I LOSE HIM)
It's not the end of the world if I lose him.
It just might seem so tonight.
It's not the end of the world.
Nothing like it, I'll still be the same old me
People get over worse things, and I'll get over this
In no time at all you can bet I'll be laughing
Well I wouldn't give him the pleasure of seeing me cry, why should I?
It's not the end of the world to take chances.
Standing still is no big thrill.
It's not the end of the world to chase rainbows.
I'll be fine when I find mine.
It's not the end of the world to be free
It's not the end of the world to be me.

FIRST LETTER HOME
Mum, I've got a lot to tell you.
Me and Joe have had a bust up.
This will be the last letter
with the post mark stamped N.Y.
I've met a film producer.
Please don't laugh his name is Sheldon.
He's what the people here all call
a real together guy.
He is off to California
and he wants me to go with him.
Oh, thanks for your last letter
I was thrilled to hear from you.
The pictures of Aunt Edna
are all absolutely... lovely,
and incidentally Sheldon's mum,
loves Mantovani too.
Mum, you must ignore the neighbours.
You can't stop Jason barking.
You'll become a nervous wreck, love,
just by listening to them.
Sheldon's got a house in Bel Air,
well, it's really a pink mansion.
It's got electric gates and armed guards,
and he calls it La Boheme.

Sheldon says he's have not trouble
Getting me my blessed green card
And lets face Mum if he can't I would say that on one can!
He plays squash with Casper ... .
He's a senator from Utah
In Muswell Hill you just don't come across this sort of man!
Sheldon has a lot of meetings.
Well, he's terribly ambitious.
He's working on a musical 'bout
Rommel, as a boy.
Tell Dad I will be livid
if you spend two weeks in Folkestone.
I know that La Boheme's a place
that you will both enjoy.

SHELDON BLOOM
I'll walk your dog.
You can be the first one in the shower.
We'll make love every hour,
beneath your Van Gogh.

I'll park the car,
and I'll whistle while the eggs are frying.
I'll dance while your shirts are drying.
Waltz or tango?

Let me move in
and let's get this show rolling.
I'll talk to your plants,
I'll even go bowling.

There is nothing I wouldn't do.
I'd be the perfect little lady for you.
Sheldon Bloom,
Come make some room.

Won't say a word
when you're watching Spencer Tracy.
I'll learn to dig Count Bassie.
Nothing to it.

I'll start to jog.
If that's what you want to take up.
I'll stop wearing make-up.
I can do it.

When you meditate
I promise you I'll be quiet.
I won't eat eclairs.
I'll share your sugar free diet.

There is nothing I wouldn't do.
I'll be the perfect little lady for you.
Sheldon B. Pass the key,

I'll give up pork.
And I will tune that old viola.
Quote things from Emile Zola.
Hmmm, I must get that book

I'll make chicken soup
when you feel fluey.
Be your analyst
when your heads real screwy.

There is nothing I wouldn't do.
I'd be the perfect little lady for you.
Sheldon dear, I like it here!

CAPPED TEETH AND CAESAR SALAD
Capped teeth and Caesar salad,
good old Beverly Hills,
with every deal that's done
an award is won.
You can rent a car
or rent a star.

Suntans and Sunday brunches.
Sprinklers sprinkle away.
Careers are being hyped
before the scripts are typed.
I'll call you back and have a nice day.

Capped teeth and Caesar salad.
Spotless Beverly Hills.
If someone takes a walk
all the neighbours talk.
Ev'ry man and beast
came from out east.

Egos and valet parking.
Newsmen gossip away.
If you don't mean a thing
You find your phone won't ring.
I'll call you back and have a nice day.
Makes telephone call
Telephonist: Hello Mr Bloom's Office
Oh hello, can I speak to Sheldon please?
Telephonist: No I'm afraid Mr Bloom is at a screening, if you want to leave word, and he'll get right back to you, thank you, and have a nice day. (Hangs up)

Capped teeth and Caesar salad.
Prime time Beverly Hills.
The cost of land so high
you can't afford to die.
When you feel bad there
you dial-a-prayer.
Earthquakes and English muffins.
Ulcers poppin' away.
It's like a fairy tale
Long as you don't inhale.
I'll call you back and have a nice day.
I'll call you back and have a nice day.

The cost of land's so high
you can't afford to die.
When you feel bad day
you dial-a-prayer.
Earthquakes and English muffins.
Ulcers poppin' away.
It's like a fairy tale
Long as you don't inhale.
I'll call you back and have a nice day.

YOU MADE ME THINK YOU WERE IN LOVE
You made me think you were in love.
You made me think that I was all you'd need.
You made me think you were in love.
If they gave Oscars for deceit you would win.
Plastic man, hear me if you can.

You made me think you were in love.
You could of used your charms on someone else.
You made me think you were the one.
It's hard to see the truth when dazzled by lights.
Hollow man, break down if you can.

Exit, way out.
Exit, fade out.
It's a wrap, no more takes,
we're through!

Exit, print it.
Exit, goodbye.
Find someone else at a cinema
near you!
I've had enough of your lies and your phoney deals
I've had enough of your name dropping foreign deals
I've made up my mind and boy how good it feels
Fade out. Exit. Cut!

You made me think you were in love.
We're both too old to play these kind of games.
If you tried coping with the real world,
you'd realize that after conning someone,
you can't just say that does it for today.

Exit, way out.
Exit, fade out.
It's a wrap, no more takes,
we're through!

Exit, print it.
Exit, goodbye.
Find someone else at a cinema
near you!
Fade out. Exit. Cut!

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD (IF HE'S YOUNGER)
It's not the end of the world if he's younger.
It won't show. No one need know.
It's not the end of the world. It's terrific!
He will be just right for me
Won't let it get me down if the call him a child
Though that link of nonsense is easy to handle
There are compensations he's handsome and sensual too
He will do.

It's not the end of the world if I love him.
What's a few, birthday's or two.
It's not the end of the world if he loves me.
Is he though, too young to know?
It's not the end of the world if we try.
If it's the end of the world, then goodbye.

SECOND LETTER HOME
Mum I know you'll think I'm potty
But at last I think I've found him
He's young, but he's mature,
He's not at all like other men
Simons says one day we'll marry
And we'll have a dozen children
I said well I'll will have two love
you can have the other ten.

Mum I've got this job at Anton's that's a salon
On the west side, the clients love my accent
They say gee you're neat, a shampoos
Called a rinse and a blow-dry something filthy
Outside the shop on Wednesdays
three nuns tap dance in the street

There are lots of things I miss Mum
No-one makes a normal sandwich,
You need goliaths mouth the eat
The ones New Yorkers buy!

I long to find a drink that does
not have an ice cube in it
and for a Walls pork sausage
I swear I would gladly die!

Simon lives in Greenwich Village
That's the trendy part of New York
He share a loft with a attorney with
The unlikely name of Dwight!

Dwight says he'll get my green card
Unless You and Dad are Cuban,
so if you haven't lied Mum
I ought to be alright

UNEXPECTED SONG

I have never felt like this
For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me
Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
I don't know what's going on
Can't work it out at all
Whatever made you choose me
I just can't believe my eyes
You look at me as though
You couldn't bear to lose me
Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
I have never felt like this
For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me
Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

COME BACK WITH THE SAME LOOK IN YOUR EYES
I will see you in a week or two.
It's late, you better get going.
Take care of yourself and call any time you feel that you're missing me.
I can only say what I always say at these goodbyes.
Come back with the same look in your eyes.

I know you've got your work to do,
and I know how much you love me,
but sometimes a friendly face can look good to you on a lonely night.
If there comes a time just remember I'm the kind that cries.
Come back with the same look in your eyes.

Everything we want we find in each other.
We would be fools to let love slip away.
Everything's so right. I'm scared that we might lose it one day.

We could never keep things from one another. You know all the feelings that are in my heart. It's not easy, it's not easy,
when you have to be apart.

So I'll see you in a week or two.
It's late, you better get going.
You'd think by now we'd know how to handle this but we never will.
When you are away, ev'ry day I pray that nothing dies,so come back with the same look in your eyes.
It's not easy, it's not easy,
when you have to be apart.

So I'll see you in a week or two.
Go on, you better get going.
You'd think by now we'd know how to handle this but we never will.
When you are away, ev'ry day I pray that nothing dies, so you'll come back with the same look. Please come back, with the same look. Oh come back with the same look in your eyes.

LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU
Funny, always thought of you as my girlfriend.
I just can't believe you could come in here
and say all those things.
Let me finish, I said let me finish.
Thank you.
Thanks for bringing me up to date dear.
Didn't know you knew all the in's and out's
of my private life.
Let me finish, I said let me finish.

Let's talk about you
A minute or two.
What tart is your husband keeping.
Where's he sleeping?
Can't you say?

Let's talk about men.
You're at it again!
I hear that you need a bed full
for those dreadful
games you play.

How dare you come in here
wagging your wicked tongue?
Your cheeks are red my dear.
You look like you've been stung.
I know my life's a mess...
but I think you're the worst thing in it.
Wait a minute...

Let's talk about you
because you never do.
You couldn't wait to blurt out
all that dirt out in my face.

Let's talk about pills
and illegal thrills.
I hear that the habit's gripped you
and you've tripped to every place.

Does it make you feel good
Knowing that I feel bad?
Yes, knowing you it would.
You must be very sad.
You can't know how I feel.
But my friend you're about to learn how
it's my turn now...

Let's talk about booze
and how much you use.
What time do your kids start drinking?
Am I sinking low as you?

Yes he likes girls and boys, what else did you see
He has not got things you didn't do
How's that fat little man...was it one more affair?
Where are you going...Why are you running away from me?
Are you absolutely sure you don't want to stay for tea!

TAKE THAT LOOK OFF YOUR FACE (reprise)
No, I didn't dig deep.
I did not want to know.
Well, you don't interfere
when you're scared of the things you might hear.

TELL ME ON A SUNDAY
Don't write a letter when you want to leave.
Don't call me at 3 am from a friend's apartment.
I'd like to choose how I hear the news.
Take me to a park that's covered with trees.
Tell me on a Sunday please.

Let me down easy, no big song and dance.
No long faces, no long looks, no deep conversation.
I know the way we should spend that day.
Take me to a zoo that's got chimpanzees.
Tell me on a Sunday please.

Don't want to know who's to blame,
it won't help knowing.
Don't want to fight day and night
bad enough you're going.

Don't leave in silence with no words at all.
Don't get drunk and slam the door,
that's no way to end this,
I know how I want you to say goodbye.
Find a circus ring with a flying trapeze.
Tell me on a Sunday please.

I don't want to fight day and night,
bad enough you're going.
Don't leave in silence with no words at all.
Don't get drunk and slam the door,
that's no way to end this.
I know how I want you to say goodbye.
Don't run off in the pouring rain.
Don't call me as they call your plane.
Take the hurt out of all the pain.
Take me to a park that's covered with trees.
Tell me on a Sunday please.

It's NOT THE END OF THE WORLD IF HE'S MARRIED
I love New York.
I love New York.
I love New York.
The words you see,
on coffee cups,
on shirts and hats,
on lollipops,
and baseball bats.
On pens and walls,
on skates and cars,
in libraries and singles bars.
On badges, flags,
tattooed on skin.
Oh, New York,
I've never been so lonely.
Loneliness must be the worst feeling of all.
How many times can you walk
56th street?
Drives you mad. Worst time I've had.
How many times can you look
at tall buildings?
Tall is tall, and that is all.

Don't see the harm it'll do,
he seems such a nice man,
and anything's better than watching those game shows
or TV. commercials that sell you Miami all night.
Must be right.

It's not the end of the world
if he's married.
Making do is nothing new.
It's not the end of the world
it's just starting.
Half of one is better than none.
It's not the end of the world,
no it's not. If it's the end of the worlds well so what!

MARRIED MAN
I'll be discreet.
I'm not the type that keeps a diary
I know when to be fiery or plain placid
I won't look crushed
When you say your wife looks pretty
Bright and very witty, Pass the acid!!!
I won't cry at all
when you walk right by me.
I'd say you can't lose.
You'd be a fool. Come try me.
I'm sure it will work out just right.
Don't mind being the candle
you sometimes light.
Married man,
yes you can.

THIRD LETTER HOME
Mum my Green Card came this morning
It's all legal I can work now.
We had a party at the Salon
They all can't wait to meet you!

I must keep myself busy
'cause I've really been quite stupid
I've met a man who's very nice
And very married too!
He's got two kids as well mum
And he says he's going to leave them
I'm scared in case he doesn't
And I'm scared in case he won't.

He does not come round often
When he does, I feel like saying leave the
Money on the sideboard, I could do
But I don't.
And I don't like the feeling. . .
I know if Dad could see me . . .

NOTHING LIKE YOU'VE EVER KNOWN
Nothing like you've ever known.
That's the life I thought that
you were gonna show me.

Lonely girls leave such things.
That's one happy ever after
that you owe.

Married man, always looking at your watch.
I wanted to spend more time than twelve till two,
loving you.

And nothing like it could have been.
Every time I think it's gonna be
the last time.

Each time I expect too much.
Being wrong can get to be
a painful past time.

Something new, that is all it was, you know.
But when you need someone, any love will do.
Sad, but true.

And nothing like we've ever known.
That is how I thought that our tomorrow's
would be.

I thought we, were all we'd need.
Goes to show you just how wrong two people
could be.

FINALE
I've done it again!
Trust me. If you want something ruined give it to me.
Show me a dream and I'll show you a nightmare.
I'm not a little girl anymore I keep forgetting that.
Whatever I do now is bound to be a mistake.
Maybe I expect too much.

Just what time of night do you call this?
No I'm not alright, maybe she's alright, maybe your alright
Let me finish I said let me finish
What kind of a person am I turning into?
Must be mad to have gone this far
Must be mad to share a married man
All you leave every time you leave me
Is a pillow that smells of Paperavan
No I don't want a drink, sit down
Might as well not pull any punches
I've been wrong before
Maybe I'm wrong now, but I feel I'm right
Let me finish, I said let me finish
This isn't a joke for Gods' sake stop smiling
Come back
Can't we sit and talk this thing over?
The world hasn't stopped has it
Think I'll get my hair cut, I'm due for a change
This time I'm right
This time I've done the right thing!
There's so much going on in this town
I don't know where to start
Don't think it will rain today
Sunday, you can't beat New York on a Sunday
Yes I was mistaken
I must have been blind
It's easy to find that kind of man
Who makes you feel you're a name on a list
I'll never do that again.
Take that look off your face!
I can see through your smile.
You would love to be right.
I bet you do not sleep good tonight,
You may think I never learn
But wait and see
Take that look off your face
You don't know me!
Take that look off your face!
I can see through your smile.
You would love to be right.
I bet you do not sleep good tonight,
You may think I never learn
But wait and see
Take that look off your face
You don't know me!
You wont know me

WHEN YOU WANT TO FALL IN LOVE
Time the song begins and time
the dance begins to stir.
Once more the world is turning.

So, the music plays again,
and we're back on the floor.
Once more the spark is burning.

Hands and faces whirl around. A half remembered sound.
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song, an unexpected song
That only we are hearing

Time the song begins and time
the dance begins to stir.
Once more the world is turning.

So, the music plays again,
and we're back on the floor.
Once more the spark is burning.

Hands and faces whirl around. A half remembered sound.
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song, an unexpected song
That only we are hearing
