Who Knows? Lyrics by Rebecca Naomi Jones, Santino Fontana

I Can Get It For You Wholesale (New Cast Recording)

[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nNew York is a wonderful town
\nA very stimulating place to be
\nIt's full of galleries and exhibitions
\nMost are absolutely free
\nAnd concerts like at Lewisohn Stadium
\nPlus, at Carnegie Hall
\nI sit way up top, with its wonderful acoustics
\nThat's where it sounds best of all
\nArt lectures at the Metropolitan
\nI attended Ancient Greece the other day
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nReally?
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nThe modern dance and ballet
\nAt the YMNWHA
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nHah
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nAnd legitimate plays on Broadway, oh
\nDon't you think Odette's is great?
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nGreat
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nNot downstairs, of course, I get last minute balcony
\nDown at Grey's cut rate
\nWhat better way can a single girl
\nWith leisure spare time find?
\nThan to go around, broaden out her background
\nAlso improve her mind?
\nPlus
\nIt gives more chance for meeting up with people
\nWouldn't you say?
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nI guess
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nSuch as certain members of the opposite sex
\nShe hopes to get involved with some day
\nAnd who can tell? Who knows?
\nWhen they might come one's way
\n
\nWho knows when I'll see him, who knows?
\nOr why it'll be him, who knows?
\nPerfect, he doesn't have to be
\nGood-looking or rich or smart
\nLong as he's crazy after me
\nAnd we see heart to heart
\nWho knows when he'll be here, who knows?
\nOne day, he'll see me there and hold out his arms
\n
\nFirst he'll kiss me
\nSay he loves me
\nAnd then
\nPropose
\nBut why, where, when, who knows?
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN]
\nWell, I guess like Teddy Asch would say
\nI'd better make with the beat
\nTomorrow's gonna be a real busy day
\nBefore the new deal is complete
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN, spoken]
\nCongratulations, Harry
\nOn the business
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nThanks
\nAlthough "congratulations" may be just a tiny bit premature
\nI know where my ten grand for Apex Modes is coming from
\nI just haven't exactly gotten my hands on it yet
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN, spoken]
\nHarry
\nI've got ten thousand dollars
\nWell, Papa had, but it's for me
\nOr, rather, for the man I marry
\n
\n[HARRY BOGEN, spoken]
\nRuthie, I–
\nIt isn't you, it's the Bronx
\nYou wanna stay, I gotta get out
\nWhat you're entitled to get for your ten grand
\nRight now, I haven't got to give
\n
\n[RUTHIE RIVKIN]
\nFirst he'll kiss me
\nSay he loves me
\nAnd then
\nPropose
\nBut why, where, when, who knows?\n\n
