Rent - Today 4 U lyrics

rate me

Collins:

Gentlemen, our benefactor on this Christmas day

Whose charity is only matched by talent, I must say

A new member of the Alphabet City avant-garde

Angel Dumott Schunard!

Angel:

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Collins:

And you should hear her beat!

Mark:

You earned this on the street?

Angel:

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 cur will bark itself to death"

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Today for 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 that dog is now in doggy hell

After an hour - Evita - in all her glory

On the window ledge of that 23rd story

Like Thelma & Louise did when they got the blues

Swan dove into the courtyard of the Gracie Mews

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Then back to 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 for you - tomorrow for me

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Today for you - tomorrow for me

Today for you - tomorrow for me
