Today 4 U

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 Today for you, tomorrow for me Today for you, tomorrow for me And you should hear her beat You earned this on the street? It was my lucky day today on Avenue A When a lady in a Limousine drove my way She said, "Dahling, 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 nonstop 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 twenty third story Like Thelma and 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 Back on 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 I said, today for you, tomorrow for me Today for you, tomorrow for me
