Where?

In his life
[HARRY]
Oh

Robert ought to have a woman
Poor baby, all alone
Evening after evening by the telephone—
We're the only tenderness he's ever known
Poor baby...

There's no one—
[DAVID]
Where?
[JENNY]
In his life
[DAVID]
Oh
[JENNY]
Bobby ought to have a woman
Poor baby, sitting there
Staring at the walls and playing solitairе
Making conversation with the empty air—
Poor baby...

Bobby...
[SARAH]
Robert, angel...

[SARAH]
You know, no one
Wants you to be happy
More than I do
No one, but
Isn't she a little bit, well
You know...?

You know
No one wants you to be happy more
Than I do
No one, but
[SARAH]
Face it
Why her?
Better
No one...

Isn't she a little bit, well
You know...?

They can't make you happy
But you know better...

Why her?
Better, no one...
Isn't she a little bit, well
You know better
[SUSAN]
You know, no one
Wants you to be happy
More than I do

Isn't she a little bit, well
You know...?

You know, no one
Wants you to be happy

Where is she from?
She's very weird...
[JENNY]
And cheap
And gross
And...
[SUSAN]
Peculiar?
Depressing
And...
[AMY]
She seems so dead
And immature...
[JOANNE]
She's tall enough to be your mother...
Goliath!...
[WIVES, together]
Poor baby, all alone
Throw a lonely dog a bone
It's still a bone
We're the only tenderness
He's ever known
Poor baby
