Two Nobodies In New York
JEFF]
What if this dialog were set to music?
What if what we're saying could be said in a song?
Hey, that's not a bad idea perhaps we could use it
Music in a musical, how can we go wrong?
We could
Ask significant questions
We could
Get important points across
Like?
Are we writing for art
And is art a springboard for fame
And will fame get folks to trust us
But will they trust us
If it's just us
Me and you
Two nobodies in New York
Hey, I think it's working we're discovering choices
Lots of things to think about when writing a show
Yeah, creating a vehicle to showcase our voices
And I don't mean our vocal cords, I mean what's below
Uh-huh
We could
Ask significant questions
We could
Get important points across
Like?
Are we writing for art
And is art a springboard for fame
And will fame get us a paycheck
But will a paycheck mean that we're sellouts
And if we sell out
Will they yell out
Me and you
Two nobodies in New York
Key change!
Maybe someday our show will get a theater
And if not this festival then somewhere out west
TV actors in our show, what could be better?
What?
Sweeter, we've been over this. You know the lyric is sweeter
But here's the deal. One of them sounds like it's two syllables
And the other sounds like it's three syllables, so it's
Like: sweeter, the-ater. Does that rhyme?
Yes. Sorry, Larry, from the key change. A-five, six, seven, eight!
(sung)
Maybe someday our show will get a theater
And if not this festival then somewhere out west
TV actors in our show, what could be swee-ater?
Thanks. Great
(sung)
We could get that woman who was on Empty Nest
Dinah Manoff, she's awesome!
Yeah
She was in Grease
Yeah!
And Leader of the Pack!
We could
Ask significant questions
We could
Get important points across
Like are we writing for art
And is art a springboard for fame
And will fame get us a sitcom
And will a sitcom get us on Ellen
And will Ellen get folks to like us
And if they like us
Will they mike us
Me and You
Two nobodies in New York
Nobodies in New York!
