The Twenty Dollar Bill Lyrics by Harrison Chad, Veanne Cox, Larry Keith, Alice Playten, Reathel Bean

Caroline, or Change (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2004

[NOAH, spoken]
The next day I go off to school
[ROSE]
Noah, darling, study hard
You should see his last report card, Papa
Everything C's and D's
[MR. STOPNICK]
Look at this
The hypocrites
Eulogizing, rhapsodizing
Kennedy, Kennedy
They hated him
They murdered him
Did him in
And now...
[ROSE, spoken]
Good morning, Caroline
[NOAH]
All day long I sit at school
Drifting, dreaming in the classroom
Inattentive 'cause I'm bored
[ROSE, STUART & MR. STOPNICK]
Study, Noah, study hard
[NOAH]
Drawing doodles, Maccabees
Bumblebees, Christmas trees
And all the toys I plan to buy with...
Buy with...
Buy with...
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Suddenly he sits up straight
Suddenly he can concentrate
Suddenly open go the eyes
[NOAH]
Suddenly I realize
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
A dreadful blow he has been dealt
[NOAH]
Left my, left my
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Chanukah gelt
[NOAH]
All that money
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Twenty dollars
[NOAH]
Twenty dollars
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
In your pocket
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN & NOAH]
In the pocket of your /my pants
[NOAH]
In the pocket of my pants
There's still a chance
Maybe she hasn't done the laundry
There's all that cleaning after a party
Oh, please clock, please clock
Strike three now
[GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Tick
[GRANDMA GELLMAN]
Tock
[GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Tick
[GRANDMA GELLMAN]
Tock
[NOAH]
Anyhow
She can't, it's mine
She can't have my money, I'll sue
Aw, come on, clock
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
It's only two
[NOAH]
I'm plotzing with anxiety
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN, spoken]
Alright, already
[GRANDMA & GRANDPA GELLMAN]
Now it's three
[NOAH]
Finally
The second I hear the three o'clock bell
I'm a bat out of hell
I run down the street
Like a blur
[NOAH & THE WASHING MACHINE]
And right away (Consequences)
The washing machine (Unforeseen)
[THE WASHING MACHINE]
I'm on
[NOAH]
In the basement
It's on, it's her
The spin cycle's already started to spin
She's down there
Wait, wait, Caroline
[CAROLINE, spoken]
What?
[NOAH, spoken]
Did you find?
[CAROLINE, spoken]
Yup, I did
And now it's mine
