Magic Time Lyrics > Days of Wine and Roses

KIRSTEN & JOE:
Two people stranded at sea
Two people stranded are we
Are
We
Are

JOE:
Hi, Betty
We spoke
Welcome aboard
Glad you made it
You?look?like your voice?on the phone
Just how you ought’a?look
And those are the clients right over there
They can’t miss you

BETTY:
You too!

JOE:
Go ahead baby
Enjoy
Enjoy

Hi there
Joe Clay
We spoke earlier

WOMAN:
Oh! You’re the, uh…

JOE:
The very on?

So you see those gentlem?n right in there?
They’re waiting to host you

WOMAN:
Hoist me, did you say?

JOE:
Well, anything for a lift
Do me a good deal

Magic time

They’re ones you want,
Standing by the portside lifeboat
Hey now, be nice
They’re here to relax
Off the clock
And you’re here to relax too
With them
Right?

Now come on

KIRSTEN:
You and I work together
On the same floor

JOE:
Oh…

KIRSTEN:
Anything for a lift?

JOE:
Well…

KIRSTEN:
And nice Covington farms pitch
You can’t spell, so I retyped it
But a very smart approach

JOE:
You did what?
What spelling?
What word?
I’m a dictionary
Don't waste your time!

MAN:
You stuck-up
You’ve met Price ?
Delaney from Smokenders

JOE:
Of course
Joe Clay

DELANEY:
I think I’m seeing you in the morning

JOE:
Sleep in!
Mister Delaney
I got what you need
It came to me this morning on the six train
I wrote it on the inside of my tie

Sister Gabriela?

DELANEY:
Yeah

JOE:
The nun who quit the cigs ??

DELANEY:
Oh yeah

JOE:
Nun loses happiness ?

DELANEY:
That’s uh…
God

JOE:
Shall I see you in the morning,
Mister Delaney?

DELANEY:
Nah, sleep in

JOE:
Now we’ve gotta get permission
To use that nun’s name
Got a cover brand
We’ll have an answer
by noon tomorrow from legal

There you are
Oh-kay
So hi there
How about a drink?
What’s your fancy?
Let me get’cha something fun
A ?

KIRSTEN:
No thanks

JOE:
A ?

KIRSTEN:
Nope

JOE:
A Jean Harlow!

KIRSTEN:
That’s a drink?
And isn’t she dead?

JOE:
She is!

KIRSTEN:
I don’t drink
I’m sorry
I never have!
I don’t like the taste

JOE:
The taste is for the fun

KIRSTEN:
I’m not here for the fun!

JOE:
Oh
Might be why you aren’t having any

KIRSTEN:
Or
It might be you

JOE:
I’m Joseph Clay
I’m the new man in public relations

KIRSTEN:
I know!

JOE:
And may I ask?

KIRSTEN:
Kirsten
Arnesen

JOE:
So what’s your tragic story?
Give me the whole Jeremiah

No fibbing now
Or leaving things out

Give it all away
On this storied ? river
I won’t tell a soul
It’ll just be our secret

Imagine this is our boat
And this is our river
The only light
A chapel of stars
The only sound
This language of ours
That’s what I’m imagining, anyway
