Original Broadway Cast What You Own
MARK Don't breathe too deep Don't think all day Dive into work Drive the other way That drip of hurt That pint of shame Goes away Just play the game You're living in America At the end of the millenium You're living in America Leave your conscience at the tone And when you're living in America At the end of the millenium You're what you own ROGER The filmmaker cannot see MARK And the songwriter cannot hear ROGER Yet I see Mimi everywhere MARK Angel's voice is in my ear ROGER Just tighten those shoulders MARK Just clench your jaw til you frown ROGER Just don't let go BOTH Or you may drown You're living in America At the end of the millenium You're living in America Where it's like the Twilight Zone You're living in America At the end of the millenium You're what you own So I own not a notion I escape and ape content I don't own emotion - I rent MARK What was it about that night ROGER What was it about that night BOTH Connection - In an isolating age MARK For once the shadows gave way to light ROGER For once the shadows gave way to light BOTH For once I didn't disengage MARK Angel - I hear you - I hear it I see it - I see it My film! ROGER Mimi I see you - I see it I hear it - I hear it My song! MARK ROGER Alexi - Mark One song - Glory Call me a hypocrite Mimi I need to finish my own film Your eyes I quit! BOTH Dying in America A the end of the millennium We're dying in America To come into our own And when you're dying in America At the end of the millennium You're not alone I'm not alone I'm not alone
