hi!

dreadful!

fabulous!

frank (spoken)
hi, i didn’t know if you’d remember me, i’m franklin shepard? oh and that’s charley kringus who writes my lyrics

gussie (spoken)
remember you? you’re the reason we’re giving this bash! i have invited the richest and most influential people in this town tonight, none of whom are as rich or influential as you are going to be
i call them ‘the blob’, they absorb everything

(sung)
meet the blob
the bodies you read about
the ones who know everyone
that everyone knows

the blob
hi!
dreadful!
fabulous!

gussie
meet the blob
not many and yet —

the blob
oh. right…

gussie
— you never see one —

the blob
what?
no!

gussie
they come as a set

the blob
who? —
him?

gussie
and we’re in their debt —

the blob
but what did you think?

gussie
’cause, honeybunch
they write the books
and put on the shows
and run the saloons
and design the clothes
they keep us natives on our toes

the blob
albee!
warhol!
kurosawa!

gussie
then they read the books
and go to the shows
and swamp the saloons
wearing all the clothes…
what you might call a glut
but
they’re the most important people
in the most important city
in the most important country
in the you-know-what!

the blob
heavy!
miltown!
gestalt!
