Second Chance Lyrics > Steel Pier

Bill:
Second chance.
Whoever gets to get a second chance?
Whoever gets another turn at bat?
Tell me that!

Rita:
Okay. Play time is over we're here to win.
Now follow me, and make a box.

Bill:
A box.

Rita:
This is the box step. Now look up. Keep making the box.
Oh, this is gonna be worse than i thought.

Bill:
One more try
Whoever gets to get another try?
Whoever gets to sing the big
Reprise?
Tell me, please

Rita:
Breathe!

Bill:
Once you're down
You're down, they say

Bill:
Once you're out,
You're out to stay
No one tells you
You can get right up
And you can start all over
With a second chance

Rita:
Watch this.

Bill:
Whenever life
Has gone rita:
From bad to worse, it's the promenade.
You've got to run
Your movie
In reverse
Re-rehearse
Soon that curse
Will disperse,
But first you've got to get
A second chance.

(buddy and bette show off dancing circles around rita and bill)

Rita:
Okay, new plan. Follow just me and see how it's done. And slow, slow.
Quick, quick. Slow, slow. Good. Quick, quick.

Bill:
It's like fate or something - me meeting up with you.
It's my second chance.

Bill:
One more try
Whoever gets to get another try?
Whoever gets to sing the big reprise?
Tell me please

Rita:
Not bad.

Bill:
Once you're down,
You're down, they say good.
Once you're out,
You're out to stay corner.
No one tells you
You can get right up
And you can start all over keep breathing
With a second chance that's it.
Whenever life has gone
From bad to worse, much better.
You've got to run your
Movie in reverse right!
Re-rehearse yes!
Soon that curse uh-huh!
Will disperse,
But first you've got to get

(he steps on her foot.)

Rita:
Ouch!

Bill:
A second chance
