Prelude lyrics
Prelude
(In The darkness, we hear the sound of a small plane flying overhead.
Bill is lying on the ground; he wears a pilot's uniform. He picks
himself up and finds a raffle ticket in his hand.)
BILL:
All right, I understand. I've got three weeks. Three weeks.
Scene: The beach in front of the Steel Pier in Atlantic City
MR. WALKER:
All marathon dancers, sign up now at the Steel Pier! Sign up now!
BILL:
Excuse me, miss... do you have a partner yet?
RITA:
Do I! You should see who I'm dancing with.
BILL:
I thought you would. After all, you're
"Lindy's Lovebird."
RITA:
You remember?
MR. WALKER:
Last call for those without partners. Sign up or sign off.
BILL:
Well, I've got to go. I don't have a partner yet.
RITA:
Good luck, Flyboy. You never know who's waiting for you.
BILL:
Or how they'll change your life. (He exits)
