I need you, I love you, I want you to know,
I never ever want to see you go...
You're lonely, I'm only, somebody who cares.
People just look better when in pairs.
(Instr. refrain, dance)
I feel for you, I touch you, I want you to see,
You mean everything there is to me.
Do you want me? You have me. What is there
to do?
Just try to love me, and I'll love you.
(Inst. refrain, in dance she whirls away leaving inept Lou behind, the end together, hands outstretched, he in front of diner. She looks at diner, Lou, shakes her head, they part. End Act I.)
The next afternoon in the diner, local latchkey kids are hanging out. Quincy and Max show up. Sal is taken with Quincy, sings: I Could use A Man Like That
I could use a man like that once in a while,
I would choose a man like that to keep in style,
I could woo a man like that, with just a smile,
And throw him off, and get another from the pile.
A man is a fool for your pleasure,
He's also a key to your treasure,
Tie his heart up in knots, he'll forget what he's lost,
And he'll take you where you want to go.
(Instrumental, dance interlude, Max enters, Sal dances with
Quincy, drops him for Max, general trading of partners)
I'd refuse a man like that, just for a while,
I'd tie the knot around his neck, and then I'd
file,
I'd review a man like that, and then I'd smile,
And throw him off and get another from the pile.
(She grabs Lou)
A man is a fool for your pleasure,
He's also a key to your treasure,
Tie his heart up in knots, he'll
forget what he's lost,
And he'll take you where you want
to go.
(Instrumental, dance interlude, Max enters, Sal dances with Quincy, drops him for Max, general trading of partners)
I'd refuse a man like that, just
for a while,
I'd tie the knot around his neck,
and then I'd file,
I'd review a man like that, and
then I'd smile,
And throw him off and get another
from the pile.
(She grabs Lou)
A man is a fool for your pleasure,
He's also a key to your treasure,
Just lead him along, until he's
a pawn, (Dumps Lou)
Then find someone who's more on
the go.
(Ends song surprised, with Tom,
who is equally surprised. Shortly later this song is reprised in a duet
with Quincy, who sings Find Out What Makes her Tick)
Quincy moves on Maggie. They go off to dinner, to the disgust of Lou and Sal. Lou, in frustration, agrees to sell his diner to Quincy.
Intermission. The diner is transformed into Benedict Arnold's Egg Emporium, a miracle of plastic facade. Quincy and Max inspect it, and discuss the contest possibly offering the diner as a prize. Max agrees to alter the computer to make that impossible. They sing a reprise of We Got Eggs while behind them the automatic package delivery system is delivering eggs with supreme maladjustment. Maggie appears, and Quincy pushes her along in the relationship:
(Song. You think I'm Crazy (midi) mp3 Features forward Quincy and sometimes elusive Maggie in choreography)
You think I'm crazy, I think so
too...
It's cause I love you, I'm
just crazy about you, bout you.
Let's go get married, though
we've just met,
We'll fly to Paris, we can get
there by jet, by jet.
Mainly, Baby, you drive me crazy,
I'm half crazy, All over you!
We'll see the ocean, the sky so
blue,
I have a notion, I could swim in
the bayou, by you.
Let's fly to Rio, or else Bombay,
It makes you feel, so very, risque,
risque, risque.
You think I'm crazy
Maggie:I
think so too,
Quincy: It's
cause I love you, I'm just crazy about you, bout you.
