Текст песни Let Me Finish - Bernadette Peters

Just what time of night do you call this?
Well, it's 3 a.m
It's my first night here
Where the hell were you?
Let me finish
I said, let me finish!

Of course that's the answer
You're a musician
No prob
I've been rather busy all evening
Mary Ellen called
Margarita called
Jane or Janet called
Let me finish
I said, let me finish!

This is not what I came here for
I came all of this way to be with you
If I liked being bored
I'd have stayed in art school
A New York girl wouldn't stand for this

This is not what I came here for
Don't you know what this whole trip means to me?
I am here 'cause of you
And 'cause my friend Vivian says
I've the talent to get on here
You think that I don't?
I do

Did you really think I was joking?
You have got a nerve
No, I didn't write Janet's number down
I can't believe that you actually said that
I'd have to be bonkers to put up with this
Where the hell did I put my bags?

I really think there's nothing to keep me here
And if you call me "Emma, baby" one more time I will scream
That's it
Let me finish
I don't even care where I go
I don't often stand up for myself
But it's time that I started
Oh, by the way, Chuck
I spilled tea in your bongos
Well, that's that
Can't think of a reason to stay
Goodbye
And I'll pay you back for the airfare

Please don't start to make excuses
You don't want a second chance
All this is is empty rubbish
Spare me, please, the song and dance

All I want is something honest
That's what's gone from this romance
We had fun but now it's over
There, goodbye
No song and dance
