Today 4 You

Enter Tom Collins

Computer genius, adjunct professor

And the undisputed coolest man to ever live in our apartment

Hey, hey

Bustelo, Marlboro

Banana by the bunch

A box of Captain Crunch would taste so good

And firewood, look it's Santa Claus

Hold your applause

Oh hi, oh hi after seven months? Sorry

This boy could use some Stoli

Oh, holy night

You struck gold at MIT

They expelled me for my theory of Actual Reality

Which I'll soon impart to the couch potatoes at New York University

Still haven't left the house?

I was waiting for you, don't you know?

Well, tonight's the night

Come to the Life Cafe after Maureen's show

No flow

Gentlemen, our benefactor on this Christmas Eve

Whose charity is only matched by talent, I believe

A new member of the Alphabet City avant-garde

Angel Dumott Schunard

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

And you should hear her beats

You earned that on the street?

It was my lucky day today on Avenue A

When a lady in a limousine drove my way

She said, darling, be a dear, haven't slept in a year

I need your help to make my neighbor's yappy dog disappear

This Akita, Evita, just won't shut up

I believe if you play non-stop, that pup

Will breathe its very last high strung breath

I'm certain that girl will bark itself to death

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

We agreed on a fee, a thousand dollar guarantee

Tax-free and a bonus if I trim her tree

Now who could foretell that it would go so well?

But sure as I am here, the dog is now in doggy hell

After an hour, Evita in all her glory

On the window ledge of that twenty-third story

Like Thelma and Louise did when they got the blues

Swan dove into the courtyard of the Gracie Mews

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Back on the street where I met my sweet

Where he was moaning and groaning on the cold concrete

The nurse took him home for some mercurochrome

And I dressed his wounds and got him back on his feet, sing it

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Today 4 you, tomorrow for me

I said, today 4 you, tomorrow for me

Today 4 you, tomorrow, oh whoa, for me
