A musical by Adam Gwon Ordinary Days the Musical - Fine Lyrics
JASON It started with the wine
CLARE The wine
JASON The wine! We were shopping for a bottle to bring to her cousin's soiree.
CLARE My cousin's a su chef, she's very gourmet.
JASON I grabbed my favorite cabernet.
CLARE He's got no clue and so I say: Darling, the wine
JASON The wine?
CLARE The wine! They're serving monkfish, so darling the wine can't be red. How 'bout this Austrian Riesling instead?
JASON Honey, you know I don't like the Riesling. When have you ever seen me drink Riesling?
CLARE Never but can't you listen this once, Red wine and fish, you'll look like a dunce
JASON Fine! I'll bring the red, you bring the white That way I'll still get drunk, you'll still be right
CLARE Fine.
JASON Fine.
CLARE Fine. And then there was the cab.
JASON The cab!
CLARE The cab. We're stuck in the middle of Broadway, Ten minutes we wait.
JASON We're twelve blocks away, and we're already late.
CLARE I point out there'd be no delay, If we would just turn that a-way.
JASON Honey, the cab!
CLARE The cab.
JASON The cab! Was pointing squarely down Broadway. I know you're concerned, but you're cousin's on Broadway, so why have we turned?
CLARE Darling, I know my cousin's on Broadway, but there was lots of traffic on Broadway!
JASON Surely, but now in my own defense, We're farther away, which doesn't make sense
CLARE Fine, driver, please stop here if you would I think Walking would do us both some good.
JASON Fine.
CLARE Fine.
BOTH Fine. We don't say anything as we're walking down Broadway. It's like I'm walking next to a stranger. I've had that feeling more and more, like I don't even know him/her!
JASON But Right now it’s cold, and we're still in a hurry,
CLARE I'm not gonna stop and I'm not gonna worry.
BOTH We'll be fine. Fine. Fine. Then it starts to rain.
CLARE My hair starts to drip My shoes are a mess The bag's getting wet and so is my dress
JASON I love the rain. And how everything shimmers.
CLARE Speaking up, we've got no umbrella.
JASON It dots her hair like morning dew. Suddenly I start to think Of the day I first met her A bucket of snow had landed in her hair I picture her shake the snowflakes off her shoulders And somehow I want to get us back to there I want her to know that I can't bare to spend a single day without her How can she know? How can she know?
CLARE Oh, shit! OW! My shoe, my shoe, my shoe, damnit! This is really fantastic, no really absurd, And what, you just stand there and don’t say a word, Fine, I'm gonna go, we're late for my cousin's. God help a soul who's late for my cousin! You can stay put here out in the rain, Don't leave it up to me to explain Give me the wine, don't take all day Fine then! Bring it yourself, your cabernet, Jesus!
JASON Shut up Clare and marry me!
CLARE Fine! What?
