Been A Long Day Lyrics


SMITTY:
Well, here it is five P.M.
The finish of a long day's work.
And there they are both of them,
The secretary and the clerk.

Not very well acquainted.
Not very much to say
But I can hear those two little minds
Ticking away.

Now, she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
I wonder if we take the same bus.

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
That could be quite a thing between us.

SMITTY:
Now, she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
He really is a dear.

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
But what of my career.

SMITTY:
And she says:

ROSEMARY:
Ah! hum...

SMITTY:
And he says:

FINCH:
A hum-hum...
Well it's been a long day.

ALL:
Well, it's been a long,
Been a long, been a long,
Been a long day.

SMITTY:
Now, she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
I wish that he were more of a flirt.

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
I guess a little flirting won't hurt.

SMITTY:
Now she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
For dinner we could meet.

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
We both've gotta eat, ah....

SMITTY:
And she says:

ROSEMARY:
Atchoo...

SMITTY:
And he says:

FINCH:
Gesundheidt!

ROSEMARY:
Thank you!

FINCH:
Well, it's been a long day!

ALL:
Well, it's been a long,
Been a long, been a long,
Been a long day.

SMITTY:
Hey!
There's a yummy Friday's special at Stouffer's.
It's dollar-ninety vegetable plate.
And on the bottom of the add,
Not bad, service for two,
Three-fifty eight,
To make a bargain, make a date.

ROSEMARY:
Wonderful!

FINCH:
It's fate!

SMITTY:
Now she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
What the female kind of trap could I spring?

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
I might as well forget the whole thing.

SMITTY:
Now she's thinking:

ROSEMARY:
Suppose I take his arm...

SMITTY:
And he's thinking:

FINCH:
Well, really what's the harm?

SMITTY:
And she says:

ROSEMARY:
Hungry?

SMITTY:
And he says:

FINCH:
Yeah!

ROSEMARY:
Yeah!

SMITTY:
Yeah!

ALL:
Well, it's been a long day!
Well, it's been a long,
Been a long, been a long,
Been a long day.

COMPANY:
Well, it's been a long,
Been a long, been a long,
Been a long day.
