Today 4 U (Workshop)

[MARK & ROGER]
Bustelo -- Marlboro
Banana by the bunch
A box of Cap'n Crunch will taste so good

[COLLINS]
And firewood

[MARK]
Must be Santa Claus

[COLLINS]
Hold your applause

[MARK & ROGER]
Collins!

[COLLINS]
Playing Anne Frank with your landlord?
Better have some Stoli

[MARK & ROGER]
Oh holy night
You struck gold at MIT?

[COLLINS]
They expelled me for my theory of Actual Reality
Which I now impart
To the couch potatoes at New York University
Gentlemen, our benefactor on this Christmas Eve
Whose music is the purest on the bow'ry, I believe
A true member of the Alphabet City avant-garde
Angel Dumott Schunard!

[ANGEL]
Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me
Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me

[COLLINS]
And you should hear her beat!

[ROGER]
You earned this on the street?

[ANGEL]
It was my lucky day today
On Avenue A
When a lady in a limousine
Drove my way
She said, "Darling be a dear
I haven't slept in a year
I need your help
To make my neighbor's yappy dog disappear"
"This akita, Evita, just won't shut up
I believe if you play non-stop that pup
Will breathe its very last
High-strung breath
I'm certain that cur
Will bark itself to death

Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me
Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me

We agreed on a fee
A $1,000 guarantee
Tax-free
And a bonus
If I trim her tree
Now who could foretell
That it would go so well
But sure as I am here
That dog is now in doggy hell
After an hour
Evita in all her glory
On the window ledge
Of that 23rd story
Like Thelma & Louise did
0When they got the blues
Swan dove into
The courtyard of the Gracie Mews

Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me
Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me
I said, today 4 U
Tomorrow for me

Today 4 U
Tomorrow for me
