Darryl Van Horne (Reprise) Lyrics – Witches of Eastwick, The

Darryl:
Poor little dear; your life's a Greek drama; one thunderbolt... (Thunder.)
...your parents are gone.
You've got a rough time staring you dead in the eye and the whole of this town looking on...

(Marge walks by, upstage of the gates. She spots Darryl, but Jennifer's back is to her.)

Darryl:
Marge. (She scurries off. Darryl turns back to Jennifer.)

Darryl:
You're maybe one twitch short of a breakdown, the camel's back before that last straw.
You're so sad you could plotz,
Got your knickers in knots.
Well, angel, just leave your knickers to moi.
'Cause Jennifer,
Darryl Van Horne
Can be a font of compassion.

Jennifer:
Mother once warned me;
Of what I'm not sure...

Darryl:
No, honestly,
Darryl Van Horne
Has got a warm side, it's true.

Jennifer:
You figured in there.
My mind is a blur...

Darryl:
A sensitive
New-ager, after a fashion.
But confident and fatherly, too...

Darryl / Jennifer / Darryl:
You like children, don't you?
Yes, I do.
Well, whatcha know;
Darryl Van Horne
Has that in common with you.

(They exit.)
