Big Finish (SMASH Cast Version)
[IVY]
Hi, Karen Cartwright
[KAREN]
Hi, Ivy Lynn
[IVY]
Are you ready to give the people what they want?
[KAREN]
Always
[IVY]
I stumbled around a bit while looking for my big break
[KAREN]
Some gentlemen opened doors but once inside they were all on the make
[IVY]
To sparkle I lit a match and I admit some bridges were burned
[IVY & KAREN]
Oh, but we won't flop on our way to the top
’Cause there's one damn thing we've learned
I give them that big finish
And they’ll forget what came before
Just give them that big finish
But always keep one eye on the door
[KAREN]
So I give this lesson to you my friend
[IVY]
They'll forgive and forget if you're good in the end
[IVY & KAREN]
Just give them that big finish
And leave them wanting more
[KAREN]
You struggle from step to step
[IVY]
Just praying to find the one
[KAREN]
The love that you want disappears
[IVY]
As the love that you need settles in for a run
[KAREN]
You think that you're down for the count
[IVY]
But then just like a phoenix you rise
[IVY & KAREN]
And with some help from above
[IVY]
Be it Tonys
[KAREN]
Or love
[IVY & KAREN]
You'll be leaving tonight with the prize
Life gives you that big finish
You'll just forget what came before
Just give them that big finish
And who knows what next year has in store
[IVY]
Though the story's finished
[KAREN]
We'll keep dreaming on
[IVY]
And though we’re sure to miss
[IVY & KAREN]
Our song when it’s gone
Let's give them that big finish
And leave them wanting more
Hear the angels shout "Encore!"
Yeah we’ll leave them, we'll leave the people wanting
[KAREN]
More!
[IVY]
More!
[IVY]
Come on, Karen Cartwright
[KAREN]
Where are we going?
