How Did We Come to This? / Queenie Was a Blonde (Reprise)
QUEENIE We're all so sure We're all so wise No limits No boundaries No compromise. Laughing at our neighbor Smiling through a hiss How did we come to this?
We're all amuse We're al inspired So cunning So clever And so admired Easy to be angry Easy to dismiss How did we come to this?
Maybe I've been living in a daydream Maybe I've been talking in my sleep If I've been awake Pardon my mistake But time is running low And talk is growing cheap.
We play our games We place our bets No witness No weakness And no regrets. Filling up with frenzy Killing with a kiss How did we all come to this?
Time goes by Plans grow stale People die And parties fail How did we come to this?
ENSEMBLE She had grey eyes, Lips like coals aglow. And her face was a tinted mask of snow.
