scene: joe and jennie’s apartment in chicago

(a mass of chattering people packed close together. jennie glides from one guest to another with the manner of an assured hostess.)

[all]
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…

[woman]
broccoli!

[man]
hogwash!

[another man]
balderdash!

[another man]
phoney baloney!

[woman]
tripe and trash!

[all]
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…
[woman]
busy, busy
i’m busy as a bee
i start the day at half past one
when i am finished phoning
it’s time to dress for tea

[all three women]
nothing we have to do gets done

[charlie]
(to himself)
the deep-thinking gentlemen and ladies
who keep a metropolis alive
drink c-cktails
and knock tails
every afternoon at five

[all]
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…

[man]
there goes dr. denby!

[another man]
dr. bigby denby!
[all]
bigby denby, bigby denby, bigby denby, bigby denby!

[woman]
doctor, doctor
i need another shot

[women]
the shots he gives are too divine

[woman]
he fills a little needle
and he gives you all its got

[women]
your f-nny hurts, but you feel fine

[all]
broccoli, hogwash, balderdash
phoney baloney, tripe and trash

goodness knows where the day has gone
the days come fast, and they’re quickly gone
but the talk talk talk
goes on and on
and on and on and on
[four men]
(indicating lansdale, who is telling a story to a sycophantic group that includes jennie)
lansdale, lansdale
the multi-millionare
he manufactures lansdale soap

[charlie]
so when he tells a story
his listeners declare
“he’s twice as comical as bob hope!”

ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…

[man]
when i was four years old, i tried to murder my nurse! my psychiatrist says my wife is taking her place

[mrs. lansdale]
i can’t sleep at night, not one wink!

[charlie]
what you need, little lady, is a good rest. one month at hot springs for you!

[mrs. lansdale]
i just came from hot springs!

[charlie]
all right, then, palm springs!

[mrs. lansdale]
oh, thank you, doctor!

[charlie]
and when you come back… i’ll give you some shots

(he gives her an assuring pat on the shoulder and a pinch on the cheek.)

the deep-thinking gentlemen and ladies
who keep a metropolis alive
drink c-cktails
and knock tails
every afternoon at five

[all]
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…

[mrs. lansdale]
barbital, nembutal, luminal, tuinal… wide awake!

[joe]
(his manner just like charlie’s)
little lady… my advice to you is a good long rest! lake louise, canada! the smell of the pines will put you to sleep

[mrs. lansdale]
suppose it doesn’t

[joe]
then come home, and we’ll try giving you some-

[all]
broccoli, hogwash, balderdash
phoney baloney, tripe and trash

goodness knows where the years have gone
the years of a life are quickly gone
but the talk talk talk
goes on and on
goes on and on and on

(spoken)

the prattle and the tattle
the gab and the gush
the chatter and the patter
and the twaddle and the tush
go on and on and on and on and
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta
ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta ya-ta-ta…

[unknown]
doctor?! doctor?! doctor?!
