Andrew Lloyd Webber - Whats Going On Joe Lyrics

[BETTY]
What's going on, Joe?
Why am I so scared?
What was that woman saying?
She sounded so weird
I don't understand

Please, can you tell me, what's happening?
You said you loved me tonight
Shall I just go?
Say something, Joe

[JOE]
Have some pink champagne and cavier
When you go visit with a star
The hospitality is stellar

[BETTY]
So this is where you're living?

[JOE]
Yes, it's quite the place, sleeps seventeen
Eight sunken tubs, a movie screen
A bowling alley in the cellar

[BETTY]
I didn't come to see a house, Joe
[JOE]
Sunset Boulevard, cruise the boulevard
Win yourself some Hollywood palazzo
Sunset Boulevard, mythic boulevard
Valentino danced on that terazzo

[BETTY]
Who's it belong to?

[JOE]
Just look around you

[BETTY]
That's Norma Desmond

[JOE]
Right on the money
That's Norma Desmond
That's Norma Desmond
That's Norma Desmond
That's Norma Desmond

[BETTY]
Why did she call me?

[JOE]
Give you three guesses
It's the oldest story in the book
Come see the taker being took
The world is full of Joe's and Norma's
Older woman, very well to do
Meets younger man, the standard cue
For two mechanical performers
[BETTY, spoken]
Just pack your things and let's go

[JOE]
You mean all my things? Have you gone mad?
Leave all these things I never had?
Leave this luxurious existence?
You want me to face that one room hell
That murphy bed, that rancid smell
Go back to living on subsistence

It's no time to begin a new life
Now I finally made the perfect landing
I'm afraid there's no room for a wife
Not unless she's uniquely understanding

You should go back to Artie and marry the fool
And you'll always be welcome to swim in my pool

[BETTY, spoken]
I can't look at you anymore, Joe

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[NORMA, spoken]
Thank you, thank you, Joe
Thank you
What are you doing, Joe?
You're not leaving me
[Joe, spoken]
Yes
Yes I am, Norma

[NORMA, spoken]
You can't
Max, Max?
