Not That Kind Of Thing
Clerk [Spoken]:
Now, kids, couples always argue when they come here to register
My advice is, be very careful...
Clerk:
It's a situation
First fight
I've seen couples face disaster
Why not tell yourselves
You're both wrong
Both right
It means that you'll make up faster
Robbie:
I hate to tell you but we're not with each other
We're sister and brother
Julia:
And he's the slow one
Robbie:
She's an idiot according to mother
Julia:
It takes one to know one
Robbie & Julia:
Tell the night
To save its moonlight
Tell the birds
Not to sing
Tell the stars
In the heavens, they've been misaligned
'Cause it's not that kind of thing
Crystal [Spoken]:
Look, a sale on towels!
Hold my purse for me
Mookie [Spoken]:
Baby, please. No
Crystal [Spoken]:
I said hold it!
(Crystal holds out her purse. Mookie takes it sheepishly.)
(Julia holds out her purse.)
Julia [Spoken]:
Um, Robbie? Hold my purse?
Robbie [Spoken]:
No
Julia [Spoken]:
I said hold it!
Crystal:
You get stuck with them for better
Julia:
Or worse
Julia & Crystal:
No matter which way you stack it
Robbie & Mookie:
It's emasculating holding a purse
Robbie:
And it doesn't match my jacket
Your evil scheme has worked out just as you planned it
I now understand it
Julia:
I shop, you carry
Robbie:
I do the work and you make out like a bandit
Julia:
It's true
Robbie [Spoken]:
No. It's scary
Julia [Spoken]:
No. You're scary!
Robbie [Spoken]:
You're scary!
Robbie & Julia & Ensemble:
Tell the night
To save its moonlight
Tell the birds
Not to sing
Tell the stars in the heavens they've been misaligned
'Cause it's not that kind of thing
Robbie:
True, there are times
When her eyes meet mine and linger there
Maybe a bit too long
Julia:
And I wonder
Is there something hidden in his stare
Robbie & Julia:
No, I couldn't be more wrong
All:
Tell the night
To save its moonlight
Tell the birds
Not to sing
Tell the stars in the heavens they've been misaligned
'Cause it's not that kind
No, it's not that kind
No, it's not that kind of thing
Julia [Spoken]:
Oh my God, Robbie
That's the dress. That's the dress I was meant to get married in!
You think I'll look all right?
Robbie [Spoken]:
You'll look beautiful
