Daphne Rubin-vega - Happy New Year Lyrics





[MIMI]
How long till next year?

[ROGER]
Three and half minutes...

[MIMI]
I'm giving up my vices
I'm going back - back to school
Eviction or not
This week's been so hot
That long as I've got you
I know I'll be cool
I couldn't crack the love code, dear
'Til you made the lock on my heart explode
It's gonna be a happy new year
A happy new year

[MARK]
Coast is clear
You're supposed to be working
That's for midnight
Where are they?
There isn't much time

[MIMI]
Maybe they're dressing
I mean what does one wear that's apropos
For a party - that's also a crime?

[MAUREEN]
Chips, anyone?

[MARK]
You can take the girl out of Hicksville
But you can't take the Hicksville out of the girl

[MAUREEN]
My riot got you on TV
I deserve a royalty

[MIMI]
Be nice you two
Or no god awful champagne

[MAUREEN]
Don't mind if I do
No luck?

[ROGER]
Bolted plywood, padlocked with a chain
A total dead end

[MAUREEN]
Just like my ex-girlfriend
(on cellular phone)
Honey...?
I know you're there ...
Please pick up the phone
Are you okay?
It's not funny
It's not fair
How can I atone?
Are you okay?
I lose control
But I can learn to behave
Give me one more chance
Let me be your slave
I'll kiss your Doc Martens
Let me kiss your Doc Martens
Your every wish I will obey

(Joanne enters)

[JOANNE]
That might be okay
Down girl
Heel...stay
I did a bit of research
With my friends at legal aid
Technically, you're squatters
There's hope
But just in case

[MARK & JOANNE]
Rope!

[MARK]
We can hoist a line --

[JOANNE]
To the fire escape --

[MARK]
And tie off at-

[MARK & JOANNE]
That bench!

[MAUREEN]
I can't take them as chums

[JOANNE]
Start hoisting...wench

[ROGER]
I think I should be laughing
Yet I forget
Forget how to begin
I'm feeling something inside
And yet I still can't decide
If I should hide
Or make a wide open grin
Last week I wanted just to disappear
My life was dust
But now it just may be a happy new year
A happy new year

(Collins enters with Angel)

[COLLINS]
Bond - James Bond

[ANGEL]
And Pussy Galore - in person

[MIMI]
Pussy - you came prepared

[ANGEL]
I was a boy scout once
And a brownie
'Til some brat got scared

[COLLINS]
Aha! Moneypenny - my martini!

[MIMI]
Will bad champagne do?

[ROGER]
That's shaken - not stirred

[COLLINS]
Pussy - the bolts

[ANGEL]
Just say the word!

[MIMI]
Two minutes left to execute our plan

[COLLINS]
Where's everyone else?

[ROGER]
Playing Spiderman

[MARK]
Ironic close up: tight
On the phone machine's red light
Once the Boho boys are gone
The power mysteriously comes on
