Lyrics Let Me Finish - Andrew Lloyd Webber, Marti Webb

Let Me Finish

Just what time of night do you call this?
Well, it’s three A.M.
It’s my first night here;
Where the hell were you?
Let me finish, I said let me finish
Of course, that’s the answer, you’re a musician
No prob.
I’ve been rather busy all evening;
Mary Ellen called, Margarita called, Jane or Janet called
Let me finish, I said let me finish
This is not what I came here for
I came all of this way to be with you
If I like being bored I’d have stayed in art school
A New York girl wouldn’t stand for this!
This is not what I came here for
Don’t you know what this whole trip means to me?
I am here cuz of you and cuz my friend Vivian says
I’ve the talent to get on here
Do you think that I don’t?
I do!
Did you really think I was joking?!
You have got a nerve, no I didn’t write Janet’s number down!
I can’t believe that you actually said that
I’d have to be bonkers to put up with this
Where the hell did I put my bags
I really think there’s nothing to keep me here
And if you call me «Emma Baby» one more time I will scream
That’s it!
Let me finish
I don’t even care where I go!
I don’t often stand up for myself
But it’s time that I started
Oh, by the way, Chuck, I spilled tea on you bongos
Well that’s that, can’t think of a reason to stay
Goodbye.
And I’ll pay you back for the air fare
Please don’t start to make excuses
You don’t want a second chance
All this is is empty rubbish
Spare me please the song and dance
All I want is something honest
That’s what’s gone from this romance
We had fun, but now it’s over
There, goodbye, no song and dance
