The Great Gatsby the Musical - One Way Road Lyrics
The song is written by Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen.
MYRTLE:
The trains aren’t running
The cabs aren’t coming
But I am going to the plaza hotel
One mile down and seven to go,
Seven to go
He needs to know
Though I’m not showing a baby’s growing
And I am going to the plaza hotel
One mile down and seven to go,
Seven to go-
(spoken)
Watch the road asshole!
(singing)
Who are you calling crazy?
I will take his little Daisy
And I’ll stick it to her that he’s mine
And this baby here is genuine
Once he knows
He’ll kick her out the door
We’ll open up a bottle,
Hell we’ll open two
He’ll propose
I’ll smile and say sure
Then presto poof my dreams
Have all come true
I will be a rich man’s wife
With a rich man’s baby
And be set for life
A debutante
A connoisseur
Wait
What if I turn into her?
When the new shiny thing
Becomes the one who wears the ring
I’m guessing I’ll have two good years
Before another shiny thing appears!
One way road
Is that what this is
Have I traveled on
And from a very early age
One way road
But when the choices are his
Heading to dead ends in a cage
Tom may not be loyal
But with him I’m royalty
Do I let him break my heart and nose
To gain security?
No dress, no ring, no party,
No baby will ever set me free!
The trains are running the cabs aren’t coming
And I’m not going to the plaza hotel!
Turn around go back to George,
Back to George
Back to home
He’ll love this baby as his own
And soon we three will be a million miles away
I know that George will love me come what may
God it’s so simple that it’s funny!
The only choice is love or money
The one way road
No matter
What
