[annie, sung]
you’re forty*two

[martha, spoken]
i’m thirty*five

[annie, sung]
you have a townhouse in the city
and a cottage in the hills

[martha, sung]
no, it’s a cottage by the sea

[annie, sung]
you’re an accountant

[martha, spoken]
wrong

[annie, sung]
you’re in insurance

[martha, spoken]
no cigar!

[annie, sung]
you’re unemployed
[martha, sung]
i lecture medicine
at harvard university

[annie, sung]
oh, isn’t that a turn*up for the books

you have a wife
her name is… mabel

[martha, spoken]
i think not

[annie, sung]
two kids at home

[martha, spoken]
three kids

[annie, sung]
but freddy, i assure the third one’s yours
and in your house
every room is just alike
from the chandeliered ceilings
to the polished hardwood floors
and oh, to livе the charmed existеnce
of fred rose
another day begins
and he thanks his lucky stars
that he’s fred rose

and yet you’re here
you’re traipsing ’round the middle east
and getting robbed on trains

[martha, sung]
i had to take some time away
to find myself

[annie, spoken]
uh*huh

(sung)
a midlife crisis?

[martha, spoken]
a sabbatical!

[martha, sung]
i just got tired of all the same routines
and couldn’t bear to stay
i needed some adventure in my life
you finish college
you get a job, you settle down
you watch the days turn into years

[annie, sung]
and in a flash you’re forty*two

[martha]
(spoken)
no, thirty*five!

(sung)
but still, you wonder
what it’s like to not have
every aspect of your world
mapped out in front of you

[annie, sung]
so sad to see the constant struggle
of fred rose
another day begins
but no one spares a thought
for poor fred rose

(spoken)
mr. rose was a lecturer by trade
made his money fast, but was feeling low
and so he waved goodbye
to his job, his kids and his wife

[martha, spoken]
ms. londonderry was a curious case
that he was trying to figure out
she always had so much to say
but didn’t share a thing about her life

[annie, spoken]
intriguing!

[martha, sung]
i think you’re hiding
you talk a million miles a minute
to distract you from your thoughts
to keep your moments occupied
to fill the silence
i think that there’s a part of you
that you don’t want the world to see
so it stays tightly locked inside
