<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

Bobby! Bobby, reason with the woman. I'm a little short this morning.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

He's my Pa, Ms. Pennywise. Can't he come in for free? Just this once?<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

Get your head out of the clouds, Bobby Strong. No one gets in for free.<br>

Every morning you all come here. And every morning some of you got<br>

reasons why ya ain't gonna pay. And I'm here to tell ya ya is gonna pay!<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

In the name of God, Penny, what difference could it make?<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

What difference?!<br>

<br>

"Times are hard"<br>

"Our cash is tight"<br>

"You've got no right"<br>

I've heard it all before<br>

"Just this once"<br>

Is once too much<br>

Cause once they've onced<br>

They'll want to once once more<br>

<br>

I run the only toilet<br>

In this part of town, you see<br>

So, if you've got to go<br>

You've got to go through me<br>

<br>

It's a privilege to pee<br>

Water's worth its weight<br>

In gold these days<br>

<br>

No more bathrooms<br>

Like in olden days<br>

You come here and pay a fee<br>

For the privilege to pee<br>

<br>

Twenty years we've had the drought<br>

And our reservoirs have all dried up<br>

I take my baths now in a coffee cup<br>

I boil what's left of it for tea<br>

And it's a privilege to pee<br>

<br>

The politicians in their wisdom saw<br>

That there should be a law<br>

The politicians taxed the toilets<br>

And made illegal<br>

Public urination and defecation<br>

<br>

So, come and give your coins to me<br>

Write your name here in the record book<br>

The authorities will want to look<br>

If you've been regular with me<br>

If you've paid the proper fee<br>

For the privilege to pee<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

But Ms. Pennywise -<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

I said no buts, Bobby. You're a sweet lookin' boy and I likes to keep<br>

you around, but this main ain't comin' in without payin'. Not this time.<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

I can't wait much longer, Bobby. There's no tellin' what I might do!<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

You think you've got<br>

Some kind of right?<br>

<br>

The Poor<br>

Kind of right, kind of right!<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

You think you'll come in here and go for free?<br>

<br>

The Poor<br>

Snag a freebie!<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

The only thing you'll get it "no" for free!<br>

<br>

The Poor<br>

Negatory!<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

I'm a business gal, you see<br>

<br>

The Poor<br>

Business gal you see!<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

I sell the<br>

Privilege to pee! The Poor<br>

<br>

It's a privilege to pee<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

The good Lord made us<br>

So we'd piss each day<br>

Until we piss away<br>

The good Lord made sure<br>

That what goes in men<br>

Must soon come out again<br>

So you're no different then<br>

From lowly me<br>

<br>

The Poor<br>

Me<br>

Lowly me<br>

Lowly me<br>

Lowly me<br>

Lowly me!<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

But, Ms. Pennywise -<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

That's enough, Bobby.<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

And I think I'll charge you twice<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

No need to jeopardize your position.<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

Or better yet, have you arrested<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

I'm through with all this, you see.<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

Since you prefer the law gets tested<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

Scrapin' cash three times a day<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

And in Urinetown you'll see<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

Crazy with the nitrates half the time<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

Why it's dumb to fight with me<br>

<br>

Old Man Strong<br>

It's no way to live, I tells ya. No way to live.<br>

<br>

Penny<br>

For the privilege to pee!<br>
