You Okay Honey? Lyrics > Rent

[A HOMELESS MAN]

Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Somewhere else!
Not here

[The HOMELESS MAN exits. ANGEL gets a good beat going on the tub,]
[but is interrupted by a moan. He starts to drum again and sees]
[COLLINS limp to downstage-left proscenium.]

[ANGEL]

You okay honey?

[COLLINS]

I'm afraid so

[ANGEL]

They get any money?

[COLLINS]

No
Had none to get --
But they purloined my coat --
Well you missed a sleeve! -- Thanks

[ANGEL]

Hell, it's Christmas Eve
I'm Angel

[COLLINS]

Angel..? Indeed
An angel of the first degree
Friends call me Collins -- Tom Collins
Nice tree ...

[ANGEL]

Let's get a band-aid for your knee
I'll change, there's a "Life Support" meeting at nine-thirty
Yes -- this body provides a comfortable home
For the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome

[COLLINS]

As does mine

[ANGEL]

We'll get along fine
Get you a coat, have a bite
Make a night -- I'm flush

[COLLINS]

My friends are waiting --

[ANGEL]

You're cute when you blush
The more the merri -- ho ho ho
And I do not take no

[ANGEL and COLLINS walk off stage right.]
