Original Broadway Cast - I Should Tell You LYRICS

MIMI
How long til next year?
ROGER
Three and a half minutes. . .
MIMI
I'm giving up my vices
I'm going back, back to school
Eviction or not
This week's be so hot
That long as I 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 thats 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
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 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
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 hop
But just in case
MARK
