Original Broadway Cast of Follies
Don’t Look At Me
[SALLY, spoken]
Ben, it's me.
(sung)
Now, folks, we bring you
Di-rect from Phoenix
Live and in person
Sally Durant!
Here she is at last
Twinkle in her eye
Hot off the press
Strictly a mess
Nevertheless...
Hi, Ben...
No, don't look at me—
Please, not just yet
Why am I here? This is crazy!
No, don't look at me—
I know that face
You're trying to place
The name...
Say something, Ben, anything
No, don't talk to me
Ben, I forget
What were we like? It's so hazy!
Look at these people
Aren't they eerie?
Look at this party
Isn't it dreary?
I'm so glad I came
[BEN & SALLY]
So-
I just look at us...
[SALLY]
Fat...
[BEN]
Turning gray...
[BEN & SALLY]
Still playing games
Acting crazy
[SALLY]
Isn't it awful?
[BEN]
God. how depressing—
[BEN & SALLY]
Me, I'm a hundred
You, you're a blessing—
I'm so glad I came!
[BEN, spoken]
What we need is a drink.
