Broadway production 2016 American Psycho the Musical - Opening (Morning Routine) Lyrics
(Music and Lyrics by Duncan Sheik)
TELEVISION ADVERTISEMENTS: "It took me nineteen years, But I finally developed a good relationship with my body." "Today, computers are management tools, Giving you a competitive edge..." "24-hour, person-to-person service with every checking account. Where's the nearest ATM?" "I don't clean anymore, Because none of these ordinary cleaners give me what I want."
PATRICK BATEMAN: Whenever I shower, sometimes twice, sometimes three times a day, I use a honey-almond wash on my ripped body, And an exfoliating spearmint gel on my face. I apply Clinique moisturiser and an anti-aging eye-balm before I shave, with a razor and cream by Pour Hommes. No cologne on the face ever, as the high alcohol content dries out your skin, And makes you look... older.
TELEVISION ADVERTISEMENT: "Milk's about the best thing I can drink at the moment to help me build strong arms, powerful legs and a broad chest. And when all my work is done, will you love me just for my body? I can live with that. Milk: it does a body good."
PATRICK BATEMAN: My suit today is an eighties drape from Alan Flusser with a bladed back to accommodate my impressive physique. My tie is by Valentino Couture; shoes by A.Testoni; underwear by Ralph Lauren.
RONALD REAGAN: "And if all else failed, You could get a sense of patriotism from the popular culture. The movies celebrated democratic values and implicitly reinforced the idea that America was special. TV was like that too; but now we're about to enter the nineties, And some things have changed..."
PATRICK BATEMAN: The painting: a David Onica. The TV set: 30-inches, digital, Toshiba. High-contrast, highly defined, Plus it has picture-in-picture capabilities, PLUS freeze-frame. My walkman, with autoreverse continuous play, is by Sony. I am 26 years old, living in New York City at the end of the century, and this is what being Patrick Bateman means to me...
[Thanks to Pat Bateman for lyrics]
