Song Lyrics #2

Finale

By: Rent

Christmas bells are ringing

Christmas bells are ringing

Christmas bells are ringing

How time flies

When compassion dies

No stocking, no candy canes

No gingerbread, no safety net

No loose change, no change, no

Santa Claus is coming

'Cause Santa Claus ain't coming

No room at the Holiday Inn again

Well, maybe next year or when

December twenty-fourth, ten p.m.

Eastern standard time

I can't believe a year went by so fast

Time to see, what we have time to see

Turn the projector on first shot roger

With the fender guitar he just got out of hock

When he sold the car

That took him away and back

I found my song

He found his song

If he could just find Mimi

I tried you know I tried

Fade in on mark

Who's still in the dark

But he's got great footage

Which he's cut together

To screen tonight

In honor of Benny's wife

Muffy, Alison

Pulling Benny out of the east village location

Then again, maybe we won't screen it tonight

I wonder how Alison found out about Mimi?

Maybe a bird told her or an angel

I had a little hunch you could use, a little 'flow

Tutoring again? Negative

Back at you? No, no you, no

I rewired the ATM at the food emporium

To provide an honorarium to anyone with the code

The code, well

A N G E L

Yet robin hooding isn't the solution

The powers that be must be undermined

Where they dwell in a small exclusive

Gourmet institution

Where we overcharge the wealthy, clientèle

Let's open up a restaurant in Santa Fe

With a private corner banquette in the back

We'll make it yet, we'll somehow get to Santa Fe

But you'd miss New York before you could unpack

Mark, Roger, anyone? Help

Maureen?

It's Mimi, I can't get her up the stairs

No, she was huddled in the park in the dark

And she was freezing and begged to come here

Over here, oh, god

Got a light, I know you, you're shivering

She's been living on the street

We need some heat

I'm shivering

We can buy some wood and something to eat

I'm afraid she needs more than heat

I heard that

Collins will call for a doctor, honey

Don't waste your money on mimi, me, me

Hello-911? I'm on hold

Cold, cold, would you light my candle

Yes, we'll, oh God, find a candle

I should tell you

I should tell you

I should tell you

I should tell you

I should tell you

Benny wasn't any

Shh, I know

I should tell you why I left

It wasn't, 'cause I didn't

I know, I should tell you

I should tell you

I should tell you, I love you

Who do you think you are?

Leaving me alone with my guitar

Hold on there's something you

Should here

It isn't much but it took all year
