FOLLOWS "I Can Do That"



(During BOBBY's monologue.)



RICHIE

 And 

What if I'm next  

What if I'm next 

What am I gonna do 

I haven't got a clue.

I gotta think of something.

What does he want 

What does he want 

Stories from the past 

I better find one fast!



MAGGIE, GREG, RICHIE, VAL, BEBE, PAUL

What should I say 

What can I tell him 



VAL

 And 

Orphan at three.

Orphan at three.

Mother and Dad both gone.

Raised by a sweet ex-con.

Tied up and raped at seven.

Seriously!  Seriously!

Nothing too obscene!

I'd better keep it clean.



DIANA, CONNIE, RICHIE, VAL, SHEILA, DON

What should I say 

What can I tell him 



JUDY

 And 

God, I'm a wreck.

God, I'm a wreck.

I don't know where to start.

I'm gonna fall apart.

Where are my childhood mem'ries 

Who were the boys 

What were the toys 

Gone beyond recall!

And why am I so tall !!

What should I say 



ALL

What can I tell him 



JUDY

 And 



CONNIE, MAGGIE

 And 



RICHIE

 And 



VAL, DIANA

 And 



BOBBY (end of monologue)

 to commit suicide in Buffalo is redundant
