Girl Meets Boy (Reprise) [US 1994Musical "Sunset Boulevard"]

JOE:How about
They dont know each other
He works the night shift
And she takes classes all day?
Heres the thing
They both share the same room
Sleep in the same bed
It works out cheaper that way
BETTY: Ive a feeling youre just kidding
But to me it sounds believable
Makes a better opening than that car chase scene
Girl find boy , borrowing her toothbrush
Or oversleeping
Or at her sewing machine
JOE: You know, its not bad, there are some real possibilities
BETTY: Whos Norma?
JOE: Whos who?
BETTY: Sorry, I dont usually read private cigarette cases
JOE: Normas a friend of mine: middle-aged lady, very foolish, very generous
BETTY: Ill say: this is solid gold. 'Mad about the boy'?
JOE: So hows Artie?
BETTY: Stuck in Tennessee. It rains all the time - theyre weeks behind
No one knows when theyll be back
JOE: Good
BETTY: Whats good about it?
Im missing him something fierce
JOE: No, I mean this idea we had. Its really pretty good
Back to work
BETTY: What if hes a teacher ?
JOE: Where does that get us?
Dont see what good it would do
BETTY: No, its great
If they do the same job
JOE: So much in common
They fall in love, wouldnt you?
BETTY: Yes, but if hes just a teacher
Then we lose those scenes in the factory
JOE: Not if hes a champion for the working man
Girl likes boy, she respects his talent
BETTY: Working with someone can turn you into a fan
JOE: This is fun, writing with a partner
BETTY: Yes, and it could be
JOE: A helluva movie
BETTY: Can we really do this?
BOTH: I know that we can
