More Lyrics by Jennifer Simard

Sondheim at the Movies

0

[BREATHLESS]
Once upon a time I had plenty of nothing—
Which was fine with me
Because I had rhythm, music, love
The sun, the stars, and the moon above
Had the clear blue sky and the deep blue sea
That was when the best things in life were free

Then time went by and now I got plenty of plenty—
Which is fine with me
'Cause I still got love, I still got rhythm
But look at what I got to go with 'em

"Who could ask for anything more?"
I hear you query
Who would ask for anything more?
Well, let me tell you
Dearie:

Got my diamonds, got my yacht
Got a guy I adore
I'm so happy with what I got
I want more!

Count your blessings, one, two, three—
I just hate keeping score
Any number is fine with me
As long as it's more!
As long as it's more...

I'm no mathematician
All I know is addition
I find counting a bore
Keep the number mounting
Your accountant does the counting...
More! More!

I got rhythm, music too
Just as much as before
Got my guy and my sky of blue
Now, however, I own the view
More is better than nothing, true
But nothing's better than
More, more, more
Nothing's better than more!

One is fun, why not two?
And if you like two
Might as well have four
And if you like four
Why not a few?
Why not a slew
More?
More!

If you got a little
Why not a lot?
Add a bit and it'll
Get to be an oodle
Every jot and tittle
Adds to the pot—
Soon you've got the kit
As well as the caboodle—
More! More!

Never say when
Never stop at plenty
If it's gonna rain, let it pour
Happy with ten
Happier with twenty—
If you like a penny
Wouldn't you like many
Much more?

Or does that sound too greedy?
That's not greed—no, indeedy
That's just stocking the store
Gotta fill your cupboard—
Remember Mother Hubbard!
More! More!

Each possession you possess
Helps your spirits to soar
That's what's soothing about excess—
Never settle for something less
Something's better than nothing, yes—
But nothing's better than
More, more, more—
Except all, all, all
Except once you have it all
You may find, all else above
That though things are bliss
There's one thing you miss
And that's—
More!
More! More! More!
