Kurt Weill in America

0

[Part I: Wouldn't You Like to Be on Broadway]
[Verse 1: Jeff Harnar & Mark Coffin, Mark Coffin]
Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway
And go dancing at the Zanzibar
And have yourself an up-and-coming boyfriend
Who can make any course in par?
[Verse 2: Jeff Harnar]
Hey, kid?
Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway
And wear some Bergdorf Goodman clothes
Red alligator shoes, a bright gold anklet
And seventeen dozen nylon hose?
[Verse 3: Mark Coffin, Jeff Harnar, Jeff Harnar & Mark Coffin]
Hey, kid?
Wouldn't you like some personal promotion
To a niche on the Great White Way?
Wouldn't you? Hey, kid?
How about it? Hey, kid?
Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway?
It's just a few blocks over
I know the way
Hey, kid? It's easy
I'll show you the way
[Part II: What Good Would the Moon Be]
[Verse: Anna Bergman]
I've looked in thе windows at diamonds
They're beautiful but thеy're cold
I've seen Broadway stars in fur coats
That cost a fortune, so I'm told
I guess I'd look nice in diamonds
And sables might add to my charms
But if someone I don't care for would buy them
I'd rather have two loving arms!
[Chorus: Anna Bergman]
What good would the moon be
Unless the right one shared its beams?
What good would dreams-come-true be
If love wasn't in those dreams?
And a primrose path
What would be the fun
Of walking down a path like that
Without the right one?
What good would the night be
Without the right lips whispering low
Kiss me, oh darling, kiss me
While evening stars still glow?
No, it won't be a primrose path for me
No, it won't be diamonds and gold
But maybe it will be
Someone who'll love me
Someone who'll love just me
To have and to hold!
