30/90

(Andrew Garfield, Joshua Henry, Vanessa Hudgens, Robin de Jesús, Alexandra Shipp & MJ Rodriguez)

[JON]
Stop the clock
Take time out
Time to regroup
Before you lose the bout

Freeze the frame
Back it up
Time to refocus
Before they wrap it up

Years are getting shorter
Lines on your face are getting longer
Feel like you're treading water
But the riptide's getting stronger

Don't panic, don't jump ship
Can't fight it, like taxes
At least it happens only once in your life

They're singing, "Happy Birthday"
You just want to lay down and cry
Not just anothеr birthday
It's 30/90

Why can't you stay twenty-nine?
Hell, you still feel likе you're twenty-two
Turn thirty, 1990
Bang! You're dead
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?




[ROGER]
Clear the runway
Make another pass
Try one more approach
Before you're out of gas

[JON]
Friends are getting fatter
Hairs on your head are getting thinner
Feel like a clean-up batter
On a team that ain't a winner

[ROGER]
Don't freak out, don't strike out
Can't fight it, like City Hall

[JON]
At least you're not alone
Your friends are there, too
They're singing, "Happy Birthday"

[JON & MICHAEL]
You just wish you could run away

[JON]
Who cares about a birthday?


[JON, with MICHAEL]
But 30/90, hey

[JON]
Can you be optimistic?

[JON & MICHAEL]
You're no longer the ingenue
Turn thirty, 1990

[JON]
Boom! You're passé

[JON & MICHAEL]
What can you do?

[JON]
What can you do?
What can you do?

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell
Which way to Never Never Land?
Emerald City's gone to hell
Since the wizard

[ALL]
Blew off his command


[JON]
On the streets you hear the voices
Lost children, crocodiles
You're not into
Making choices, wicked witches
Poppy fields, or men behind the curtain
Tiger lilies, ruby slippers

[ALL]
Clock is ticking, that's for certain!

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
And they're singing, "Happy Birthday" (Happy birthday)

[JON]
I just wish it all were a dream
It feels much more like Doomsday
F*ck

[JON, ROGER & KARESSA]
30/90

[JON]
Seems like I'm in for a twister
I don't see a rainbow, do you?

[JON, ROGER & KARESSA]
Turn thirty in the '90s

[JON]
Into my hands now
The ball is passed
I want the spoils, but not too fast

The world is calling
It's now or Neverland
Why can't I stay a child forever, and

[JON, (ENSEMBLE)]
30/90
30/90 (30/90)
30/90
30/90 (30/90)
30/90

[ALL]
30, 30/90
What can I do?

[ENSEMBLE]
30/90, 30, 30/90

[ALL]
What can I do?

Boho Days

(Andrew Garfield, Robin de Jesus, Alexandra Shipp, Joshua Henry & Vanessa Hudgens)

[JON]
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
Bohemia

Shower's in the kitchen, there might be some soap
Dishes in the sink, brush your teeth if you can cope
Toilet's in the closet, you better hope
There's a light bulb in there

[LAUREN, spoken]
Not today

[JON]
Revolving door roommates, prick up your ears
Fourteen people in just four years
Ann and Max and Jonathan and Karoline and Kerri
David, Tim-no, Tim was just a guest from June to January
Margaret, Lisa, David, Susie, Stephen, Joe, and Sam
And Elsa, thе bill collector's dream, who still is on the lam
Don't forgеt the neighbors, Michelle and Gay
More like a family than a family, hey

The time is flying
And everything is dying
I thought by now
I'd have a dog, a kid, and wife




[JON & ROGER]
The ship is sort of sinking
So let's start drinking

[JON]
Before we start thinking

[JON & ROGER]
Is this the life?

[ALL]
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
This is the life, bo-bo, bo-bo, bo

[ALL, (ROGER)]
Bohemia (Ya, ya, ya)
Bohemia (Woo-hoo-hoo)

[JON, spoken]
One more time

[ALL]
Bo-he-mi-a

[JON]
Bo-bo, bo-bo, bo
Woah

Green Green Dress

(Joshua Henry)

[JON]
Deep dark velvet hugs your silhouette
Black silk stockings, you're my Juliet
Soft long hair, baby, beautiful eyes
Cool me down before I jump into your thighs

The green green dress
Twenty buttons and a strap
The green green dress
What a pleasure to unwrap

Green dress
Oh, what it can do
What the green green dress does to me on you
Me on you

[SUSAN]
Let's find a chair where we can sit and talk
Or get some fresh air, maybe we could take a walk
Tell me what you're thinkin', talk about your day
Tell me what to do, I'll do anything you say

[JON & SUSAN]
The green green dress
Twenty buttons and a strap
The green green dress



[JON]
What a pleasure to unwrap

[JON & SUSAN]
Green dress
Oh, what it can do, oh
What the green green dress

[JON, (SUSAN)]
Does to me on you (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Me on you (You)

[SUSAN]
Can I hear you laugh, babe?
Can you make me smile?
I'll forget what's on my mind for a while

[JON]
Can I tie you up, love?
If you tell me, "Yes"
I'll unbutton every button
Down your green green dress
Ow

[JON & SUSAN]
The green green dress
Twenty buttons and a strap
The green green dress
What a pleasure to unwrap


Green dress
Oh, what it can do
What the green green dress

[JON, (SUSAN)]
Does to me on you (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Me on you (You)
Me on the green green dress (Green green dress)
Me on the green green dress (Green green dress)
Me on you (You)

[JON]
The green green dress

[SUSAN]
The green green dress

[JON, (SUSAN)]
The green green dress (Green green dress)

[JON & SUSAN]
The green green dress

No More

(Andrew Garfield, Robin De Jesús)

[MICHAEL]
No more
Walking thirteen blocks
With thirty pounds of laundry
In the freezing dead of winter

No more
Walking up six flights of stairs
Or throwing down the key
Because there is no buzzer

No more
Faulty wiring
No more
Crooked floors

No more
Spitting out my Ultra Brite
On top of dirty dishes
In the one and only sink

Hello, to my walk in closets
Tidy as Park Avenue
Hello, my butcher block table
I could get used
I could get used
I could get used to you
No more
Climbing over sleeping people
Before you get out the door
Of your own building

[MICHAEL & JON]
No more

[MICHAEL]
Noxious fumеs
From gas heaters that are illеgal

[JON]
Or will blow up while you are sleeping

[MICHAEL]
No more

[JON]
Leaky ceilings

[MICHAEL]
No more

[JON]
Holes in the floor
[MICHAEL & JON]
No more

[JON]
Taking a shower in the kitchen
While your roommate's eating breakfast

[MICHAEL & JON]
And you're getting water on his corn flakes

Hello, to shiny new parquet wood floors
As waxed as a wealthy girl's legs
Hello, dear Mister Dishwasher

[MICHAEL, (JON)]
I could get used (I could get used)
I could get used (I could get used)
I could get used to you (To you)

[JON]
No more
Exotic

[MICHAEL]
No more
Neurotic
[MICHAEL & JON]
No more
Anything but pleasantly robotic

[MICHAEL, (JON)]
We're movin' on up (We're movin' on up)
To the east side (To the east side)

[MICHAEL & JON]
To a deluxe apartment
In the sky

[MICHAEL & JON]
Hello, to dear Mister Doorman
Who looks like Captain Kangaroo
Hello dear fellow, and how do you do?

[MICHAEL, JON, BOTH]
I could get used (I could get used)
I could get used (I could get used)
I could get used to you
Yeah, I could get used (I could get used)
Even seduced (Even seduced)
I could get used to you

Johnny Can't Decide

(Andrew Garfield, Vanessa Hudgens & Joshua Henry)

[JON]
Break of day, the dawn is here
Johnny's up and pacing
Compromise or persevere?
His mind is racing

Johnny has no guide
Johnny wants to hide
Can he make his mark, if he gives up his spark?
Johnny can't decide

Susan longs to live by the sea
She's through with competition
Susan wants a life with me
Johnny's got a tough decision

Johnny has no guide

[JON & KARESSA]
Johnny wants to hide
Can he settle down

[KARESSA, (JON)]
And still not drown? (And still not... drown?)

[JON & KARESSA]
Johnny can't decide



[JON]
Michael's gonna have it all
His luck will never end
Johnny's backed against the wall
Can he bend his dream, just like his friend?

[JON, (KARESSA)]
Johnny sees that Susan's right (Susan's right)

[JON & KARESSA]
Ambition eats right through you

[ROGER, (JON)]
Michael doesn't see why Johnny holds so tight (I hold so tight)

[ROGER & JON, ALL]
To the things that Johnny feels are true

[ROGER & KARESSA, (JON)]
Johnny has no guide (Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to hide (Johnny wants to hide)

[ROGER & JON, (ALL)]
How can you soar
When you're nailed to the floor?


[ALL]
Johnny can't decide

[ROGER & KARESSA, (JON)]
Johnny has no guide (Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to hide (Johnny wants to hide)

[ALL]
How do you know when it's time to let go?

[JON, ROGER, KARESSA]
Johnny can't decide (Johnny; Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide (Decide; decide)
Johnny can't decide (Johnny; Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide (Decide; decide)
Decide (Decide, decide; decide)
Decide, decide (Decide)

[JON]
Johnny can't decide

Sunday

(Andrew Garfield & Moondance Diner Ensemble)

[MOONDANCE DINER ENSEMBLE]
Sunday
In the blue, silver chromium diner
On the green, purple, yellow, red stools

[JON]
Sit the fools
Who should eat at home
Instead they pay on

[ALL]
Sunday

[MOONDANCE DINER ENSEMBLE]
For a cool orange juice or a bagel
On the soft, green cylindrical stools

[JON]
Sit the fools
Drinking cinnamon coffee

[MOONDANCE DINER ENSEMBLE]
Or decaffeinated tea
Forever (Forever; forever)
In the blue, silver chromium diner
Drips the green, orange, violet drool
From the fools
Who'd pay less at home
Drinking coffee
Light
And dark



[JON]
And cholesterol
And bums
Bums, bums, bums, bums, bums, bums, bums
Bums

[MOONDANCE DINER ENSEMBLE]
People screaming for their toast
In a small SoHo cafe
On an island in Two Rivers
On an ordinary
Sunday
Sunday
Sunday...

[JON]

Play Game

(Tariq Trotter)

Pl-pl-play-pl-play game
Pl-pl-play-pl-play game

Walk through Times Square, and what do ya see?
Ugliness where architecture used to be
The glamour and style have been replaced by gaud
Like the sixty-dollar spectacle, it's all a fraud
That's the play game (That's the play game)
So why do I want to play the play game?
That's the play game (That's the play game)
I must be insane to play the play game
Even off Broadway, it's no guarantee
That some MBA won't decide what you see
Just like America, lackin' innovation
Just gettin' by on glitz and reputation
Just likе America, on the declinе
Unconcerned with the product, just the bottom line
Write for the movies, write for TV
So what if it's crap? At least you won't write for free
Make thousands of dollars for a first draft
Your life won't depend on whether Frank Rich laughed
So just forget Shakespeare, Beckett, Molière

That's the play game (That's the play game)
That's the play game (That's the play game)
That's the play game
Why do I care? (Play game, play game, play game)

Therapy

(Andrew Garfield & Vanessa Hudgens)

[JON]
I feel bad, that you feel bad
About me feeling bad, about you feeling bad
About what I said, about what you said
About me not being able to share a feeling

[KARESSA]
If I thought that what you thought
Was that I hadn't thought about sharing my thoughts
Then my reaction to your reaction, to my reaction
Would have been more revealing

[JON]
I was afraid that you'd be afraid
If I told you that I was afraid of intimacy
If you don't have a problem with my problem
Maybe the problem's simply co-dependency

[KARESSA]
Yes, I know, that now you know
That I didn't know, that you didn't know
That when I said, "No," I meant, "Yes, I know"
And that now I know that you knew, that I knew you adored me

[JON]
I was wrong to



[KARESSA]
Say you were wrong to

[JON]
Say I was wrong about

[KARESSA]
You being wrong

[JON]
When you rang to say that

[KARESSA]
The ring was the wrong thing to bring

[JON]
If I meant what I said
When I said, "Rings bored me"

[JON & KARESSA]
I'm not mad that you got mad when I got mad
When you said I should go drop dead

[JON]
If I were you and I'd done what I'd done
I'd do what you did
When I gave you the ring
Having said what I said


[JON, (KARESSA)]
I feel bad, that you feel bad (I feel badly)
About me feeling bad, about you feeling bad (About you)
About what I said, about what you said (Feeling badly about me)
About me not being able to share a feeling (Feeling badly about you)

I thought (If I thought that what you thought)
You thought (Was that I hadn't thought about sharing my thoughts)
I reacted shallowly (Then my reaction to your reaction, to my reaction)
When I reacted to you (Would have been more revealing)

I'm not mad, you got mad (I'm not mad that you got mad that I got mad)
Go drop dead (When you said I should go drop dead)

If I were you and I'd done what I'd done (If I were you)
I'd do what you did when I gave you the ring (But I'm not you)
Having said what I said (Said what I said)

[JON]
But now it's out in the open

[KARESSA]
Now it's off our chest

[JON & KARESSA]
Now it's 4 a.m.
And we have therapy tomorrow
It's too late to screw
So let's just get some rest

Swimming

(Andrew Garfield, Vanessa Hudgens, Joshua Henry)

I hate this locker room
Why won't Susan answer my calls?
Sweat, wet, echo, smell, hell, rap
Pump up the volume, hot, wet, hot, sweat
How's the water?
Stretch, stretch, spit in the mask
Cloudy vision, test the water
Contemplate the dive, the shock to the skin
Anticipate the pain, the pain, the pain, the pain, the pain, ah!
One, two, three, oh, bite the air
'Cept there's that girl
One, two, three, oh, bite the air
Smooth, soft skin
Two, three, oh, bite thе
13, long legs, brown skin, and wet hair
Oh-whoa-oh-oh-oh, and wet hair
Has Rosa еven listened to my tape?
Kick, stretch, windmill arm
See the hand, point the finger
Oh, wet hair, relax, this guy's too slow
15, can I make it to 40?
Too slow, touch his heel, move!
Answer my calls, red thin stripe
50 feet, 60 feet
She looks like Susan
Susan's beautiful
Out, don't think
Out, out, let it out
Keep the shoulder down
Down, easy, not too hard
Find the movement so rigid
Hands numb
Shoulder numb, elbows numb
Lower, from the back, yes, lower
39, 40, center! Center!
Forward motion through the water (come to your senses)
They're scared (come to your senses, come to your senses)
I am soaring, I'm the water (you're on the air, you as the knight)
Escape (I'm on the ground, me as the queen)

[Thanks to marta.del.mar2008 for adding these lyrics]

Come to Your Senses

(Alexandra Shipp & Vanessa Hudgens)

[SUSAN]
You're on the air
I'm underground
Signal's fading
Can't be found

I finally open up
For you I would do anything
But you've turned off the volume
Just when I've begun to sing

Come to your senses
Defenses are not the way to go
And you know, or at least you knew

Everything's strange
You've changed, and I don't know what to do
To get through, I don't know what to do

[KARESSA]
I have to laugh
We sure put on a show
Love is passé in this day and age
How can we expect it to grow?

You as the knight
Me as the queen
All I've got tonight
Is static on a screen



[SUSAN]
Come to your senses
Thе fences inside arе not for real
If we feel as we did, and I do

Can't you recall
When this all began, it was only you and me
It was only me and you

[KARESSA]
But now the air is filled with confusion
We've replaced care with illusion

[SUSAN]
It's cool to be cold
Nothing lasts anymore
Love becomes disposable
This is the shape of things, we cannot ignore

Come to your senses
Suspense is fine
If you're just an empty image emanating out of a screen

Baby, be real
You can feel again
You don't need a music box melody to know what I mean


[KARESSA]
Deep in my eyes
What do you see?
Deep in my sighs
Listen to me

[SUSAN]
Let the music commence from inside

[SUSAN & KARESSA]
Not only one sense, but use all five

[SUSAN]
Come to your senses

[KARESSA]
Come to your senses

[SUSAN, (KARESSA)]
Come to your senses (Come to your senses)

[SUSAN & KARESSA]
To your senses
Baby, come back alive

Real Life

(Robin de Jesús)

Why

(Andrew Garfield)

[MICHAEL][JON]
When I was nine
Michael and I
Entered a talent show down at the Y

9 A.M., went to rehearse by some stairs
Mike couldn't sing
But I said, "No one cares"

We sang "Yellow Bird" and "Let's Go Fly A Kite"
Over and over and over
'Til we got it right

When we emerged from the Y.M.C.A.
Three o'clock sun had made the grass hay

I thought
Hey, what a way to spend a day
Hey, what a way to spend a day
I make a vow
Right here and now
I'm gonna spend my time this way

When I was sixteen
Michael and I
Got parts in Wеst Side at White Plains High


Three o'clock, went to rеhearse in the gym
Mike played "Doc", who did not sing
Fine with him

We sang, "Got a rocket in your pocket"
And "The Jets are gonna have their day, tonight"
Over and over and over
'Til we got it right

When we emerged, wiped out by that play
Nine o'clock, stars and moon lit the way

I thought
Hey, what a way to spend a day
Hey, what a way to spend a day
I made a vow
I wonder now
Am I cut out to spend my time this way?

I'm twenty-nine
Michael and I
Live on the west side of SoHo, N.Y.

9 A.M., I write a lyric or two
Mike sings his song now on Mad Avenue


I sing, "Come to your senses
Defenses are not the way to go"
Over and over and over
And over, and over, and over, and over
'Til I get it right

When I emerge from B Minor or A
Five o'clock, diner calls, "I'm on my way"

I think
Hey, what a way to spend a day
Hey, what a way to spend a day
I make a vow
Right here and now
I'm gonna spend my time this way

I'm gonna spend my time this way
Is this real life?
Is this real life?

Is this real life?
Is this real life?

Is this real life?
Is this real life?

Is this real?
Is this real?
Is this real life?

Louder Than Words

(Andrew Garfield Vanessa Hudgens Joshua Henry)

[JON]
Why do we play with fire?
Why do we run our finger through the flame?
Why do we leave our hand on the stove
Although we know we're in for some pain?
Oh, why do we refuse to hang a light
When the streets are dangerous?
Why does it take an accident
Before the truth gets through to us?

Cages or wings
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds

Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words

Why should we try to be our best
When we can just get by and still gain?
Why do we nod our heads

[JON & ROGER]
Although we know

[ROGER]
The boss is wrong as rain?




[JON]
Why should we blaze a trail
When the well-worn path seems safe and

[JON & KARESSA]
So inviting?

[KARESSA]
How, as we travel

[JON & KARESSA]
Can we see the dismay
And keep from fighting?

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Cages or wings (Cages or wings)
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds

[ALL]
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Actions speak louder than words
(Louder than, louder than)


[JON]
What does it take
To wake up a generation?

[ALL]
How can you make someone
Take off and fly?

[JON, ALL]
If we don't wake up
And shake up the nation
We'll eat the dust of the world
Wonderin' why, why

[KARESSA]
Why do we stay with lovers
Who we know, down deep
Just aren't right?
Why would we rather

[ALL]
Put ourselves through hell
Than sleep alone at night?

[JON]
Why do we follow leaders who never lead?


[ROGER]
Why does it take catastrophe to start a revolution

[ROGER & KARESSA]
If we're so free?
Tell me why

[JON]
Someone tell me why
So many people bleed

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Cages or wings (Cages or wings)
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds

[ALL]
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Actions speak louder than-
(Louder than, louder than, louder than, louder than)

[ALL]
Cages or wings
Which do you prefer?

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Ask the birds (Ah)

[ALL]
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer

[JON, (ROGER & KARESSA)]
Actions speak louder-
(Louder than, louder than)
They speak louder-
(Louder than, louder than)
Actions speak louder than-

Out of My Dreams (Bonus Track)

(Veronica Vazquez)

Oh, woah
Yeah

Out of my dreams, out of my dreams
Out of my dreams (Out of my dreams, my dreams)
Out of my dreams

Out all night, kisses on the street
Sidewalk dance, September heat
Stay in bed, love all day
Fire, passion, every single way
Go to work, mind on you
Anticipatin' what we're gonna do
Nasty words on the telephone
The alarm goes off, I'm in bed alone

You left my life, stay out of my dreams
You left my life, stay out of my dreams

Out of my dreams, out of my dreams
Out of my dreams, out of my dreams
(Out of my dreams, my drеams)

Thursday, Friday, 3 A.M.
Buses, subways, us versus them
Wintеr chill (Ooh), sky's look dark
Monkey business in Central Park (Oh, woah-woah)
Coffee, cocoa, more whip cream
[?] was it just a dream? (Oh)
Window shopping, Christmas Day
I wake up, all that was yesterday

You left my life, stay out of my dreams (Stay out of my dreams)
You left my life, stay out of my dreams (Stay out of my dreams, oh)

Out of my dreams, out of my dreams (Far away, stay far away)
Out of my dreams (Oh), out of my dreams (Out of my dreams)
Out of my dreams (Out of my dreams, my dreams)
Out of my dreams (Out of my dreams, my dreams)
Out of my dreams

Only Takes a Few (bonus track)

(The Mountain Goats)

"Almost missed this one," he said
I stared at the honky-tonk piano
Sure beats living in town
The beaches are half a mile away
"Not much of the cat," I said
He stared down underneath the couch
It doesn't matter much to me
Not gonna beat it, anyway

[Chorus]
It only takes a few cents more to go first class
First class only takes a few
It only takes a few cents more to go first class
First class only takes a few
It only takes a few cents more to go first class
First class only takes a few

"It's called 'quintessence'," I said
She stared at an Oreo cookie in black and white
After water, earth, air and fire
The fifth and highest play
"Lobster okay?", she said
I stared at her refrigerator door
There'll be enough for the guy in the attic
What's his name?

It only takes a few cents more to go first class
First class only takes a few
It only takes a few cents more to go first class
First class only takes a few

Shared a floor with Nashville
The burger queen bought herself a pearl
A bloke named Bo with nut-brown skin
With art and a very pretty Cali girl
Downstairs, two Spanish lovers were singing along
With some domestic Don Juan
I had to pinch myself, what a hell of a house I'd stumbled on

"June, July, August," she said
They stared at the summer about to fade away
Damn good three months of my life
I remember now what living is
"The cat's now a cat," I say
You stare at the honky-tonk piano man
Watch your step
I just met Oliver, the lobster's his

It only takes a few good friends to be first class
First class only takes a few
It only takes a few good friends to be first class
First class only takes a few

First class only takes a few
It only takes a few
It only takes a few
It only takes a few
Long live the island
Long live the island
Long live the island
