Rent (Original Soundtrack of the Fox Live Television Event)
You'll See
Joy to the world!
Benny still has a key?
Benny owns the building
Hey you, bum
Yeah, you
Move over
Get your ass off that Range Rover
That attitude towards the homeless
That's exactly what Maureen is protesting tonight
Maureen is protesting losing her performance space
Not my attitude
She's not worried about the people in that empty lot
She's worried about losing her home for her angry little protest skits
What's happened to Benny?
What happened to his heart?
And the ideals he once pursued
Any owner of that lot next door
Has the right to do with it as he pleases
Happy birthday, Jesus
The rent?
You're wasting your time
We're broke
And you broke your word
This is absurd
There is one way you won't have to pay
I knew it
Next door the home of Cyberarts you see
And now that the block is rezoned
Our dream can become a reality
You'll see boys
You'll see boys
A state-of-the-art digital virtual interactive studio
I'll forego your rent
And on paper guarantee
That you can stay here for free
If you do me one small favor
What?
Convince Maureen to cancel her protest
Why not just get an injunction
Or call the cops?
I did, and they're on standby
But my investors would rather I'd handle this quietly
You can't quietly wipe out an entire tent city
Then watch It's a Wonderful Life on TV
You wanna produce films and write songs?
You need somewhere to perfect it
It's what we used to dream about
Think twice before you reject it
You'll see boys
You'll see boys
You'll see the beauty of a studio
That lets us do our work and get paid
With condos on the top
Whose rent keeps open our shop
Just stop the protest
And you'll have it made
You'll see
Or you'll pack
That boy could use some Prozac
Or heavy drugs
Or group hugs
Which reminds me
We have a detour to make tonight
Anyone who wants to can come along
Life Support is a group for people coping with life
We don't have to stay long
First, I've got that protest to save
Roger?
I'm not much company you'll find
Behave!
He'll catch up later
He's just got other things on his mind
You'll see boys
We'll see boys
Just let it be boys!
I like boys
Boys like me
We'll see
