Testo The Girl Who Has Everything - Mary Louise Wilson & Christine Ebersole

Testo della canzone The Girl Who Has Everything (Mary Louise Wilson & Christine Ebersole), tratta dall'album Grey Gardens: The Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

In a statement released today
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis confirmed
That her eighty-year-old aunt, Ms. Edith Bouvier Beale
And her adult daughter, Edie
Are living in squalid conditions
In an East Hampton estate known as Grey Gardens
The house that once played host to Howard Hughes and the Rockefellers
Is now a refuge for fifty-two stray cats, a few rabid raccoons
And its two reclusive inhabitants
All living in an environment the health department calls
"Unfit for human habitation"
Mrs. Onassis described the situation as a "private family matter"
And so we're left to ponder
How could American royalty fall so far so fast?
I found it, Mother darling
I found your old record!
She is the girl who has everything (Everything)
She has the world on a string (On a string)
Isn't it wonderful? (Meltingly lovely)
God, aren't you just mad about your song? (As pure as the morn)
I recorded it in 1941 (Venus reborn)
I was very serious about my singing, loved it (Taming a...)
Unicorn
She is the girl who has everything
You sang this song for me (Carry her off in her prime)
I was the girl who had everything
That's ancient history
Yeah, everything minus the ring (Her youth's evanescence)
I don't think people should get married (Makes haste of the essence)
I don't believe in it at all
Well if you can't get a man to propose to you
You might as well be dead (Of the girl who has everything but time)
I'll take a dog over a man any day
You lived! I never lived
Oh, you had your dancing!
You were very good at that
And you had music all the time
She is the girl who has everything
Talent and beauty
Sublime
The crowds and the clamor
Aroused by her glamor
Will fade like the echo of a chime
She's the girl who has everything
But time!
