Testo Easy Street

Rooster:

I remember the way

Our sainted mother

Would sit and croon us
Her lullaby



Miss Hannigan:

She'd say, kids, there's a place

That's like no other

You got to get there before you die



Rooster:
You don't get there

By playing from the rule book



Hannigan:

You stack the aces



Rooster:

You load the dice



Hannigan and Rooster:

Mother dear

Oh, we know you're down there listening --

How can we follow

Your sweet Advice

To



Rooster:

Where the rich folks play

Yeah, yeah, yeah

To easy street



Hannigan:

Rooster, Hannigan, and Lily:

When you get there stay



Rooster:

It ain't fair

How we scrounge

For three of four bucks

While she gets Warbucks



Hannigan:

The little brat!

It ain't fair this here life

Is drivin' me nuts!

While we get peanuts

She's livin' fat!



Rooster:

Maybe she holds the key

That little lady



Hannigan:

To gettin' more bucks



Rooster:

Instead of less

Maybe we fix the game

With something shady



Lily:

Where does that put us?



Hannigan:

Oh, tell her.



Rooster, Hannigan, and Lily:

Yes!
