The Lady's Paying - Nicolas Colicos/Patti LuPone/Kevin Anderson/Ensemble[00:00:00]

Written by：Andrew Lloyd Webber[00:00:00]

Hurry up the birthday boy is on his way[00:00:04]

This is a surprise celebration[00:00:08]

I hope you've remembered everything I've said[00:00:11]

I want to see a total transformation[00:00:16]

What's all this[00:00:19]

Happy birthday darling did you think we'd forgotten[00:00:21]

Thanks[00:00:23]

These people are from the best men's shop in town[00:00:24]

I had them close it down for the day[00:00:26]

Norma now listen[00:00:28]

I'll leave you boys to it[00:00:28]

Happy birthday welcome to your shopathon[00:00:37]

What's going on[00:00:39]

Help yourself it's all been taken care of[00:00:41]

Anyone who's anyone is dressed by me[00:00:45]

Well golly gee[00:00:48]

Pick out anything you'd like a pair of[00:00:49]

You just point I'll do the rest[00:00:53]

I've brought nothing but the best[00:00:55]

You're a very lucky writer[00:00:57]

Come along now get undressed[00:00:59]

Unless I'm much mistaken[00:01:02]

That's a 42 inch chest[00:01:04]

I don't understand a word you're saying[00:01:06]

Well all you need to know's the lady's paying[00:01:10]

It's nice to get your just reward this time of year[00:01:13]

Get outta here[00:01:16]

And all my merchandise is strictly kosher[00:01:17]

When you've thrown away all your old worn out stuff[00:01:21]

Hey that's enough[00:01:24]

Perhaps you'd like to model for my brochure[00:01:25]

I have just the thing for you[00:01:29]

Chalk stripe suits[00:01:31]

In black[00:01:32]

Or blue[00:01:32]

Glen plaid trousers[00:01:33]

Cashmere sweaters[00:01:34]

Bathing shorts for Malibu[00:01:35]

Here's a patent leather lace up[00:01:38]

It's a virtuoso shoe[00:01:40]

And a simply marvelous coat made of vicuna[00:01:42]

You know what you can do with your vicuna[00:01:47]

Come on Joe you haven't even started yet[00:01:50]

You wanna bet[00:01:52]

I thought by now he'd look the height of fashion[00:01:54]

He always takes forever making up his mind[00:01:57]

Don't be unkind[00:02:00]

I thought you writers knew about compassion[00:02:01]

I love flannel on a man[00:02:05]

This will complement his tan[00:02:08]

We'll take two of these and four of those[00:02:10]

I'm still your greatest fan[00:02:12]

Very soon now we'll have stopped him[00:02:14]

Looking like an also ran[00:02:17]

You're going to make me sorry that I'm staying[00:02:19]

Well all right I'll choose after all I'm paying[00:02:22]

Evening clothes[00:02:26]

I want to see your most deluxe[00:02:27]

Won't wear a tux[00:02:29]

Of course not dear tuxedos are for waiters[00:02:30]

What we need are tails a white tie and top hat[00:02:33]

I can't wear that[00:02:36]

Joe second rate clothes are for second raters[00:02:37]

I seek today of that[00:02:41]

Se wow filling station shirt[00:02:42]

And the boring baggie jacket[00:02:45]

And with yesterday desert[00:02:47]

I don't have to go to premieres[00:02:49]

I'm never on display[00:02:52]

You seem to forget that I'm a writer[00:02:54]

Who cares what you wear when you're a writer[00:02:57]

I can't join and please don't be so mean to me[00:03:01]

Ok all right[00:03:04]

You will be charming to my new year's eve party[00:03:05]

I've been invited somewhere else on new year's eve[00:03:08]

Thats why no[00:03:12]

Try always see the new year's eve party[00:03:13]

I can't do without you Joe I need you[00:03:17]

I've sent out every single invitation[00:03:21]

All right Norma I give in[00:03:25]

Of course you do[00:03:27]

And when they've dressed you[00:03:29]

You'll 'cause a sensation[00:03:31]

We equip the chosen few of Movie land and[00:03:34]

The latest cut[00:03:37]

We dress every movie star and crooner[00:03:38]

From their shiny toecaps to their hatband[00:03:42]

Conceal your gut[00:03:45]

You won't regret selecting the vicuna[00:03:46]

If you need a hand to shake[00:03:50]

If there's a girl you want to make[00:03:52]

If there's a soul you're out to capture[00:03:54]

Or a heart you want to break[00:03:56]

If you want the world to love you[00:03:59]

You'll have to learn to take[00:04:01]

You must decide with bursie was training[00:04:03]

And certain potars walk the lady's paying[00:04:07]

And why not have it all[00:04:10]

The lady's paying[00:04:17]
