Merrily We Roll Along (New Broadway Cast Recording)
That Frank
I said, Frank, this picture is a watershed
I said, Frank, one day, who'll run my studio?
I said, Frank, will you listen to that response?
I said, Frank really knows what the public wants
I said, Frank, this picture is a watershed
Know what I'm having?
What?
Not much fun
Party!
That Frank!
The guy is too much
Hey, the party's outside
That Frank!
Did you like the picture?
A platinum touch
How 'bout more champagne?
He has taste
He has talent
Is he the best?
Plus a fine head for business
The man is blessed
That Frank!
I wrote the screenplay for Frank's movie
Your secret's safe with me
That Frank
So, what do you do?
(He's full of advise)
I drink
(That Frank)
No, what do you really do?
(And, God, is he nice?)
I really drink
What a friend
What a host
And his work is great
Has a wife who is gorgeous
A son who's straight
He's the type you can easily learn to hate
That Frank
Who says, lonely at the top?
I say, let it never stop!
It's our time coming through
All our dreams coming true
Working hard
Getting rich
Being happy, there's a switch
(That smile!)
Don't you miss writing music?
(He's hot but he's cool)
That was the old Frank Shepard
(What style!)
This guy's the American dream
And what a great pool
If you had no idea what charisma meant
And you just can't be jealous he's such a gent
He's the kind of a man that you can't resent
That Frank
Franklin
Oh, Meg
This is Mary Flynn
Mary is my deepest, closest, best friend in all the world
Congratulations on the movie
Your performance will stay with me for a long time
We go way back
But seldom forward
I said, Frank, you're coming down to Mexico
I think Frank is moving back to Paramount
These are the movers
These are the shapers
These are the people who fill the papers
(Mexico!)
These are the friends of Frank
(Moving back to Paramount)
Each one a perfect blank
When you see a movie that successful
What can you say?
Congratulations!
Thank you!
These are the movers
These are the shapers
These are the people who give you vapors
Twenty years ago who'd've guessed?
Who'd've guessed
We'd be standing here?
God we would've been so impressed
Now we're here with the most-
(Mexico)
Brilliant minds on the coast
(Moving back to Paramount)
And notice who is their host
Mexico!
Beautiful, Frank
Acapulco, Mexico
Beautiful, Frank
When you've made a movie that successful
Where do you go?
Uh, Paramount!
Here's to us
Who's like us?
Damn few
Now, I heard a reliable rumor
That you're selling the Malibu house?
You don't want it
The place doesn't even have a pool
No pool?
Trash it!
Let's have some coffee, Mary
(Poor Frank)
I never drink coffee
(He handled that well)
Caffeine isn't good for you
(That Frank)
Look, I'm aware this was just a formula movie
(He's loyal as hell)
But my next picture?
You wait
I gave up waiting
He's polite and considerate
Rain or shine
It began when I tasted communion wine
That Frank
Who says, mustn't go too far?
I say, look a where we are!
It's our time coming through
I say, good
Me and you
I say, roll
I say, ride
I say, hey, there's food outside!
That Frank!
(Frank's movie was fun)
You'd think he'd relax
(Frank knows what the public wants)
Not Frank
(And Frank made a star)
He's laying new tracks
(I love a movie movie)
If you had no idea what charisma meant
And you just can't be jealous
He's such a gent
He's the kind of a man could be President
That Frank!
That Frank!
That Frank!
