Scene: Who’s Betty Schaefer? / I Should Have Stayed There Lyrics by Nicole Scherzinger, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tom Francis

SUNSET BLVD: The Album

2024

[NORMA, spoken]
Are you looking for this script, by any chance?
[JOE, spoken]
Uh, yeah
[NORMA, spoken]
Whose phone number is this?
I've been worried about the line of my throat
This woman has done wonders
[JOE, spoken]
Good
[NORMA, spoken]
And I've lost half a pound since Tuesday
[JOE, spoken]
Very good
[NORMA, spoken]
And now it's after nine, I'd better get to bed
[JOE, spoken]
You had
[NORMA, spoken]
Are you coming up?
[JOE, spoken]
I'm gonna read a little longer
[NORMA, spoken]
You went out last night, didn't you, Joe?
[JOE, spoken]
I went for a walk
[NORMA, spoken]
You took the car
[JOE, spoken]
I drove to the beach
[NORMA, spoken]
Who's Betty Schaefer?
[JOE, spoken]
Surely, you don't want me to feel like a prisoner in this house?
[NORMA, spoken]
You don't understand, Joe
I'm under a terrible strain
It's been so hard I even got myself a revolver
The only thing that stopped me from killing myself was the
Thought of all those people, waiting to see me back on the screen
How could I disappoint them?
All I ask is a little patience, a little understanding
[JOE, spoken]
Norma, there's nothing to worry about, I haven't done anything
[NORMA, spoken]
Of course you haven't
Good night, my darling
[JOE, sung]
I should have stayed there
Poor Norma
So desperate to be ready
For what would never happen
But Betty would be waiting
We had the script to finish
One unexpected love scene
Two people, both risking
A kind of happy ending
