[00:00.72]Some People - Bernadette Peters
[00:09.21]Some people can get a thrill
[00:12.85]knitting sweaters and setting still.
[00:15.97]That's okay for some people
[00:19.25]who don't know they're alive.
[00:22.25]
[00:22.82]Some people can thrive and bloom
[00:26.15]living life in the living room.
[00:29.41]That's perfect for some people
[00:32.65]of one hundred and five.
[00:35.98]But I at least gotta try
[00:41.92]when I think of all the sights that I gotta see
[00:44.72]and all the places I gotta play,
[00:46.27]all the things that I gotta be at.
[00:48.32]Come on, papa, what do you say?
[00:50.41]Some people can be content
[00:53.88]playing bingo and paying rent.
[00:56.97]That's peachy for some people,
[01:00.24]for some hum-drum people to be,
[01:05.21]
[01:07.07]but some people ain't me!
[01:11.26]
[01:12.89]I had a dream,
[01:16.41]a wonderful dream, papa,
[01:19.53]all about June in the Orpheum circuit.
[01:21.47]Gimme a chance and I know I can work it.
[01:23.98]I had a dream.
[01:26.52]Just as real as can be, papa.
[01:28.38]There I was in Mr. Orpheum's office
[01:33.56]and he was saying to me, "Rose,
[01:36.86]get yourself some new orchestrations,
[01:38.70]new routines and red velvet curtains.
[01:40.45]Get a feathered hat for the baby;
[01:42.03]photographs in front of the theatre.
[01:44.11]Get an agent and in jig time
[01:46.41]you'll be being booked in the big time."
[01:49.05]Oh, what a dream.
[01:51.53]A wonderful dream, papa.
[01:55.13]And all that I need is eighty-eight bucks, papa.
[02:00.53]That's what he said, papa.
[02:03.42]Only eighty-eight bucks.
[02:05.91]"You ain't gettin' eighty-eight cents from me, Rose."
[02:09.36]"Well, I'll get it someplace else! But I'll get it! And get my kids out!"
[02:14.36]
[02:17.83]Goodbye to blueberry pie.
[02:23.40]Good ridance to all the socials I had to go to,
[02:27.21]all the lodges I had to play,
[02:28.44]all the shriners I said hello to.
[02:29.62]Hey, L.A., I'm comin' your way!
[02:30.85]Some people sit on their butts;
[02:35.52]got the dream, yeah, but not the guts.
[02:38.81]That's living for some people,
[02:41.95]for some hum-drum people I suppose.
[02:48.03]
[02:48.64]Well, they can stay and rot!
[02:53.35]
[02:57.19]But not Rose!
