2017 London WORKING the Musical - It's an Art Lyrics
There's some as don't care When they put down a plate There's a sound Not with me When they move a chair It'll scrape with a grate On the ground Not with me I will have my hand right When I place a glass Notice how I stand right As customers pass Serve a demitass With a gesture so gentile Or do it again 'til It's near oriental
Da da da da dum dum
It's an art It's an art To be a fine waitress To see that you pleasure each guest There's a twist To my wrist If I let a fork drop Or cut up a porkchop Or serve a New York chop It all needs be stylish and smart That's what makes it an art
I remember one day As I do now and then I had shakes And down I went There with my tray Full of seven prime tenderloin steaks And down I went But I kept my poise Not one guest heard me fall Never made a noise Not one noise food and all If you have to crawl You give 'em what they like You carry your tray like It's almost ballet-like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
It's an art It's an art To be a fine waitress Each evening I treasure the test Though my chef May be deaf I stay diplomatic If I give him static He might burn the haddock Or put too much salt in a tart Even that is an art
Tips? HA! Tips are important For people like captains and barmen For them it's a tips, see? For me, I'm a gypsy Just toss me a coin And I suddenly feel like I'm Carmen
So on through the ulcer The backache The hot, sweaty feet On you go Through, "Is your knife dull, sir?" And, "Madam wants WHAT whith her meat?" On you go Two AM approches The curtains decsend There among the roaches My act's at an end Every night I tend To find myself crying There's no work so trying Or so satisfying
I tell everybody that I'm a waitress and I'm proud. Somebody comes up to me and says, "Hey you're terrific. How come you're just a waitress?" Ya know what I say to them? I say, "Why? Don't you think you deserve to be dserved by me?"
It's an art GUESTS Miss! WAITRESS It's an art GUESTS Miss! WAITRESS To be a great waitress GUESTS Please take care of this WAITRESS To do without leisure or rest GUESTS Could we have our check please? WAITRESS So I zoom GUESTS Miss!

WAITRESS Ev'rytime I prove I'm a pro GUESTS I'm late, miss! Hurry up, miss! WAITRESS Maybe I'm not quite GUESTS Miss! WAITRESS Michealangelo GUESTS And a bag for my dog WAITRESS But I'm not just a waitress GUESTS You were great WAITRESS I'm a one GUESTS But I'm late WAITRESS Woman GUESTS My check please My change please WAITRESS Show GUESTS C'mon please Lady, let's go
