Lyrics Easy Terms - The Theatreland Chorus

Easy Terms

In the name of Jesus the thing was done
Now there’s no going back for anyone
It’s too late now for feeling torn
There’s a pact been sealed
There’s a deal been born
(sung)
Only mine until
The time comes 'round
To pay the bill
Then I’m afraid
What can’t be paid
Must be returned
You never, ever learn
That nothing’s yours
On easy terms
Only for a time
I must not learn to call you mine
Familiarise that face, those eyes
Make future plans
That cannot be confirmed
On borrowed time
On easy terms
Living on the never-never
Constant as the changing weather
Never sure who’s at the door
Or the price I’ll have to pay
Should we meet again
I will not recognise your name
You can be sure
What’s gone before
Will be concealed
Your friends will never learn
That once we were
On easy terms
Living on the never-never
Constant as the changing weather
Never sure who’s at the door
Or the price I’ll have to pay
(spoken)
They’re born!
You didn’t notify me
But I… couldn’t I keep 'em a few more days?
Please?
They’re a pair!
They go together!
My husband is due back tomorrow, Mrs Johnstone.
I must have my baby!
We made an agreement — a bargain!
You swore on the Bible!
You better… you better see which one you want
I’ll take the —
Don’t tell me which one, just take 'im.
Take 'im
(sung)
Living on the never-never
Constant as the changing weather
Never sure who’s at the door
Or the price I’ll have to pay
Should we meet again
