Stephen Sondheim
Rich and Happy, Pt. 2
[Spoken]
Party!
(sung)
Life is swinging
Skies are blue and bells are ringing
Every day I wake up singing
"Look at me, I'm rich and happy!"
Days go zipping
Sitting by the pool and tripping
Everybody's flip and flipping
Everybody's rich
And happy!
Who says all our dreams get burned?
Every bit of this was earned
It's our time coming through
All our dreams coming true
All our days full of beans
This must be what happy means!
Skies are beaming
Future bright and prospects gleaming!
Best of all, I don't stop dreaming
Just because I'm rich
And famous
And suntanned
And influential
And on the covers of magazines
And in the columns and on the screens
And giving interviеws
Being photographed
Making all the important scеnes
And at the parties cutting capers
And on the talk shows and in the papers
And unbelievably
Happy, too!
