TERRY So we bough this little condominium … KATE So we found this little Chinese gardener … JEROME It's a clear case of studio politics … PHOTOGRAPHER We were stuck on the freeway till half past six … FOUR GUESTS (individually) Great … Smog … Points … (A hefty snort of cocaine.) ALL Party! FRANK Life is swinging, Skies are blue and bells are ringing. Every day I wake up singing, "Look at me, I'm rich and happy!" Days are sunny, Working hard for lots of money, Filled with people smart and funny, Filled with people rich and happy. Who says, "Lonely at the top"? I say, "Let it never stop!" It's my time coming through, All my dreams are coming true: Gorgeous house, gorgeous wife, Who wants any more from life? Skies are beaming, Future bright and prospects gleaming. Best of all, I don't stop dreaming Just because I'm rich And famous And therefore Happy, too! ALL Party! GUEST Well, you must admit the movie's terrible … ANOTHER GUEST I imagine Frank is feeling terrible … MARY These are the movers, These are the shapers, These are the people That fill the papers. ALL Terrible … MARY These are the friends of Frank … ALL Wasn't it just terrible? MARY They all have Frank to thank. ALL When you see a movie that bad, What on earth can you say? (to Frank) Congratulations! FRANK Thanks. MARY These are the movers, These are the shapers, These are the people That give you vapors … FRANK Twenty years ago who'd have guessed, Who'd have guessed I'd be standing here, Playing host to the very best, All the powers that be? ALL Terrible … FRANK Everybody I see … ALL Wasn't it just … FRANK And look who's one of them — me! GROUP I Terrible … GROUP II Beautiful, Frank! (to each other) Wasn't it just terrible? GROUP I Beautiful, Frank! ALL When a movie's that bad, What on earth can anyone say? ALL (except Mary) Party! Life is swinging, Skies are blue and bells are ringing. Every day I wake up singing, "Look at me, I'm rich and happy!" Days go zipping, Sitting by the pool and tripping. MARY Everybody's flip or flipping. Everybody's rich — ALL And happy! FRANK Who says all our dreams get burned? Every bit of this was earned. It's our time coming through — All our dreams coming true! ALl our days full of beans, ALL This must be what happy means! Skies are beaming, Future bright and prospects gleaming! Best of all, we don't stop dreaming Just because we're rich FRANK And famous ALL And suntanned FRANK And influential ALL And on the covers of magazines And in the columns and on the screens And giving interviews, Being photographed, Making all the important scense, And — At the parties cutting capers, And on the talk shows and in the papers And unbelieveably Happy, too!
