only the beginning - the original cast of the other josh cohen lyrics
[narrator josh]
please sit back and relax; nothing’s wrong with the set!
allow me to explain:
my apartment got robbed, i just don’t know it yet!
[josh cohen]
huh?
[narrator josh]
last year was quite a year
burglary’s a new york rite of passage, people swear
like the first time you see elmo take his head off in times square
[josh cohen]
boo!
[narrator josh]
but last year when my stuff all got stolen, i wasn’t this carefree
even before he burgled me
my heart felt numb. i was sure as i could be:
my day would never come
there’s me on the subway; you’re swiping too fast!
[josh cohen]
ow!
[narrator josh]
well, at least i tried
how i wish we could talk to ourselves in the past!
[josh cohen]
ugh, wait, this is the uptown side!
[narrator josh]
i’d say, “hey, me, don’t be nice to that mime
unless you’ve got a quarter.”
[mime]
i don’t want your freakin’ dime!
[narrator josh]
i’d suggest not to play single softball if you won’t swing*
strike three!
*but it wouldn’t change a thing
we’re stubborn jerks ’til we’re ready to listen
deaf as a post ’til we’re ready to hear
and we only learn to be ready the hard way
i know you’ve had a tough year
i can tell you you’ll be fine
that it’s not the final inning
you’ll soon learn losing everything is only the beginning
[josh cohen]
my day will never come
[narrator josh]
i warned you girls don’t like when guys order schnapps!
[josh cohen]
this fuzzy navel’s nice*
[girl]
nope!
[narrator josh]
and the q train ride home always makes sudden stops!
[josh cohen]
hey, i did it!
[narrator josh]
twice
[josh cohen]
oh!
[narrator josh]
i’d explain that you’re making a goof
to think when boots say ‘waterproof,’ it really means they’re waterproof
[josh cohen]
cold!
[narrator josh]
i could speak of the fun that just one piece of mail will bring
but it wouldn’t change a thing
[josh cohen & narrator josh]
i’m lost, i’d say
[narrator josh]
well, a letter’s on its way
this is the story of a strange piece of mail that changed my life
[josh cohen]
what?
[narrator josh]
nothing!
[ensemble]
we’re stubborn jerks ’til we’re ready to listen
deaf as a post ’til we’re ready to hear
and we only learn to be ready the hard way
[narrator josh]
i know you’ve had a tough year
your day is gonna come
your day is gonna come (watch out!)
your day is gonna come (move over!)
your day is gonna come
your day is gonna come (sorry!)
your day is gonna come (jerk!)
your day is gonna come (c’mon!)
your day is gonna come!
[ensemble]
i can tell you you’ll be fine!
i can tell your head is spinning!
you’ll learn losing everything is only the beginning!
i could paint it on a sign;
the only con to winning
is knowing losing everything is only the beginning!
[narrator josh]
your day is gonna come!
[ensemble]
we’re stubborn jerks ’til we’re ready to listen
deaf as a post ’til we’re ready to hear
and we only learn to be ready the hard way
[narrator josh]
a lot’s gonna happen this year
to a lonely guy
who’s new to rum
[josh cohen]
i’m not okay
[narrator josh]
your day is gonna come
the story we’re telling tonight is true
it actually happened last year on valentine’s day
to a poor schlub named josh cohen
[josh cohen & narrator josh]
hi, i’m josh cohen!
