Oklahoma! - 1998 Royal National Theatre Cast - Kansas City Lyrics

Lyrics Kansas City - Oklahoma! - 1998 Royal National Theatre Cast



I got to Kansas City on a Frid'y
By Saturd'y I learned a thing or two
'Cause up to then I didn't have an idea
Of what the modren world was comin' to
I counted twenty gas-buggies going by themselves
Almost every time I took a walk
Then I put my ear to a bell telephone
And a strange woman started in to talk!
What next?
Yeah what?
What next?!
Everything's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as far as they can go!
They went and built a skyscraper seven stories high
About as high as a building oughta grow!
Everything's like a dream in Kansas City!
It's better than a magic lantern show
You can turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat
With every kind of comfort, every house is all complete
You can walk to privies in the rain and never wet your feet!
They've gone about as far as they can go
Yes sir!
They've gone about as far as they can go!
Come here!
Everything's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as far as they can go
They got a big theatre they call a burlesque
For fifty cents you can see a dandy show
One of the girls was fat and pink and pretty
As round above as she was round below
I could swear that she was padded from her shoulder to her heel
But later in the second act, when she began to peel
She proved that everything she had was absolutely real!
She went about as far as she could go
Yes sir!
She went about as far as she could go!
And that's about as far as I can go!
Yes sir!
That's about as far as she can go!
We've gone about as far as we can go!
We've gone about as far as we can go!
