Cy Coleman - The Life: 'Someday' Is for Suckers текст песни

Исполнитель: Cy Coleman

альбом: The Life (Original Broadway Cast Recording)


I'm sick and tired of working in this hell hole of a place with broken glass and used up rubbers on the ground
Sick of all the punks and all the slobs and all the drunks and all those horny freaks who follow me around
I'm sick of waiting while some bastard looks me over, standing there deciding yes or no
Sick of every dick, of every hot and sweaty trick who says "how much?" before he even says hello

I'm sick of never knowing if some john is gonna turn into
Another Jack the ripper on the make
But when you're a hooker getting cut up into pieces
Well that's just the kind of chance you gotta take
I'm sick of always feeling like my back is broken
Sick of getting splinters in my knees
Sick of being worried if I'm gonna catch a beating
Not to mention catching who knows what disease
(It ain't always gonna be like this, Not for me, I got plans)
(Oh yeah?)
(Oh yeah)
Some day I'll be working in a million dollar penthouse
Where my tricks will all be coming to me
Taking care of business in
My air conditioned bedroom
With my VCR and color Tv
Some day I'll be working for an escort service
With a very fancy clientele
Someday I'll be known by every doorman in the city
From the Hilton to the Plaza Hotel
Someday is a promise that is always broken
Someday is a day you'll never see
Someday and a buck will buy a subway token
Someday is for suckers like me
We're gonna get there
Who says we're not
Don't tell us we're dreaming
Dreams is all we got
(Hey you sick freak)
(What did you think you were getting?)
Someday I'll be owning me the cutest little dress shop
That the town of Tallahassee's ever seen
Living like a lady in a cottage in the country
With my husband and my sewing machine
Someday I'll be going back to Puerto Rico
Then my life is going to be grand
All I'm gonna do all day is stare out at the ocean
And my back will hardly ever leave the sand
Someday is a hustler in a satin jacket
Promising what's never gonna be
Someday is a hustler with a perfect racket
Someday is for suckers
Some day's are the mighty
Someday is for suckers!
Some day's are the mighty!
Like me!
