Down at Merrill Lynch

Bootleg war...
Skirts are getting higher...

Big surprise
(spoken)
Honey, give me the financial page—
[CELESTE]
Guess who died—

What's with you and the financial page?
[HANK, spoken]
Nothing. I was thinking of Gene and the gang.
[CELESTE, spoken]
Oh. Let's see...

But Gene said—
[CELESTE, spoken]
I know what Gene said, and it breaks my heart. Thank God you didn't listen to him—
[DINO, RAY, TED & ARTIE]
Corn went up
Wheat went up
Everything, you name it, on the street went up
Montana Chem. did not go up—
But it didn't go down!
[ARTIE]
First time!
[DINO, RAY, TED & ARTIE]
And Gene says
Tomorrow it'll take the town
The stock is going out of sight
Just wait until tomorrow night
Wait until tomorrow...
Wait until tomorrow...
Gene says, wait until tomorrow...
