Temporary Arrangement

NICK:

Hey, Mr. Arnstein

Here's your ace

It's a temporary arrangement

When you're down

There's nowhere to go but up

I find that lady luck changes affection

Fortune's a fickle dame

Haven't run into them lately

But both of them know my name

It's a temporary estrangement

From the crystal dish and the silver knife

But there's another side to the coin

Tomorrow night, tenderloin

'Cause a temporary arrangemеnt

Is the only permanent thing in lifе

I find that lady luck changes affection

Fortune's a fickle dame

Haven't run into them lately

But both of them know my name

It's a temporary estrangement

From the crystal dish and the silver knife

ENSEMBLE:

'Cause a temporary arrangement

NICK:

Is the only permanent thing

ENSEMBLE:

Only permanent thing

ENSEMBLE (NICK):

(The only)

The only permanent thing

(Only)

NICK:

Permanent thing!

In life!

Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat

BOYS:

Our boys went rat-tat-tat-tat

Rat-tat-tat-tat

And shot the Kaiser where he sat-tat-tat-at

With every poppity-pop

Some Krauts took a drop

American boys are all such straight shooters

We'll take care of him, mother

When he comes home from the war

We'll take care of him, mother

We'll do everything that you would do, yeah, and more

Rat-tat-tat-tat

We'll give their backs a big pat

They deserve a future full of joys

'Cause they're our Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle

Doughboys

GIRLS:

Company! Order! Arms! Roll call!

I'm Private Jones from Arkansas

I'm Private Smith from Kansas

I'm Private Ryan from Maine

I'm Private Burke from Wisconsin

I'm Private O'Brien from Texas

I'm Private Muntz from Michigan

FANNY:

I'm Private Schwartz from Rock-a-way

And I guess you've heard reports

That the Kaiser runs a block away

When they tell him, "Here comes Schwartz"

'Cause when I get mad, believe it, Jack

Out from nowhere comes a maniac

A kick in the foot

A shot in the pants

I wouldn't give a second chance

Private Schwartz from Rock-a-way

GIRLS:

Private Schwartz

Private Schwartz

Private Schwartz from Rock-a-way

FANNY:

I met Mademoiselle from Armentières

And my bagels gave a spin, oy, oy

She said, "Private Schwartz

Come closer, dear"

What a tzimmes I got in

When you're fighting for democracy

Call on Irving Schwartz and company

I'm through and through

Red, white and bluish

I talk this way

Because I'm British

Tell Far Rock-a-way, don't pull the dock away

'Cause sailing home is General Schwartz

ALL:

That's our Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle

Hurra!

Who Are You Now? (Reprise)

FANNY:

Who are you now?

Now that you're mine?

Are you something more than you were before?

No more hunger and thirst

You're a Funny Girl / Beekman Call

NICK:

Funny

Baby, you're sure funny

If you're one thing, honey

You're a funny girl

You constantly have me in stitches

Doubled in half

And though you may be all wrong for a guy

You're good for a laugh

I tell you though, honey

You don't seem so funny

(spoken)

Hello, Lefty! Nick Arnstein

Good, good

Listen, are you still trying to peddle that fancy bond deal? Because I'm in a listening mood these days.

Risky? Well, that don't bother me so long as it's profitable! I'll need 68,000 in advance. Well, let's put it this way. You've got the 68 grand and risk or no risk, you've got me. Good. Mmm-hmm I'll be there.

(sung)

Wеll, to me it ain't so funny

What Do Happy People Do?

ENSEMBLE:

I wonder

I wonder

What do happy people do?

I wonder

I wonder

What do happy people do?

Do they count the hours on dandelion clocks?

Do they hunt for pearls near underwater rocks?

Do they wake the stars, the fireflies, and bats?

Do they [?] and pin it on their hats?

Do they splash in rain and count the drops that fall?

Do they scatter crumbs when sparrows come to call?

Do they gather shells to fill with drops of dew?

Do they ask the moon to make their dreams come true?

I wonder

(I wonder)

I wonder

(I wonder)

What do happy people do?

I wonder

(I wonder)

I wonder

(I wonder)

What do happy people do?

The Music That Makes Me Dance

FANNY:

I add two and two, the most simple addition

Then swear that the figures are lying

I'm a much better comic than mathematician

'Cause I'm better on stage than at intermission

And as far as the man is concerned

If I've been burned

I haven't learned

I know he's around

When the sky and the ground start in ringing

I know that he's near

By the thunder I hear in advance

His words and his words alone

Are the words that can start my heart singing

And his is the only music that makes me dance

He'll sleep and he'll rise

By the light of two eyes that adore him

Bore him it might

But he won't leave my sight for a glance!

In every way, every day, I need less of myself

And need more him, more him

'Cause his is the only music that makes me dance!

'Cause his is the only music that makes me dance!

Dream Ballet (iba orchester)

Finale (Act 2)

FANNY:

Funny...

Did you hear that?

Funny...

Yeah, the guy said

"Honey, you're a funny girl"

That's me

I just keep 'em in stitches

Doubled in half

And though I may be all wrong for the guy

I'm good for a laugh

I guess it's not funny

Life is far from sunny

When the laugh is over

And the joke's on you

A girl ought to have a sense of humor

That's one thing you really need for sure

When you're a funny girl

The fella said, "A funny girl"

Funny

How it ain't so funny

Funny girl

I marched my band out

I beat my drum

I guess we didn't make it

At least I didn't fake it

Who is the pip with pizzazz?

Who is all ginger and jazz?

Who is as glamorous as?

Who's an American beauty rose?

With an American beauty nosе?

And ten American beauty toеs?

Eyes on the target and wham

One shot, one gun shot and bam!

Hey, gorgeous!

Here we go!

Again!

Well, here it goes, kid

No looking back!

Stiff upper nose, kid

Let's give 'em hell, Brice

We'll cry a little later

Well, Brice

That's life in the theater!

Get ready for me, world

'Cause I'm a comer!

I simply gotta march

My heart's a drummer

Nobody

No, nobody

Is gonna rain on my parade!
