Easy Street

[Rooster]
I remember the way
Our sainted mother
Would sit and croon us
Her lullaby.

[Hannigan]
She'd say, kids, there's a place
That's like no other
You got to get there before you die.

[Rooster]
You don't get there
By playing from the rule book.

[Hannigan] You stack the aces
[Rooster] You load the dice.

[Hannigan & Rooster]
Mother dear
Oh, we know you're down there listening,
How can we follow
Your sweet Advice to...

[Rooster]
Easy street, easy street
Where you sleep till noon.

[Rooster & Hannigan]
She'd repeat
Easy street
Better get there soon.

[Rooster, Hannigan, Lily]
Easy street
Easy street
Where the rich folks play
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Move them feet.

Move them ever-lovin' feet
To easy street
Easy street
When you get there stay.

[Rooster]
It ain't fair
How we scrounge
For three of four bucks
While she gets Warbucks.

[Hannigan]
The little brat!
It ain't fair this here life
Is drivin' me nuts!
While we get peanuts
She's livin' fat!

[Rooster] Maybe she holds the key that little lady
[Hannigan] To gettin' more bucks.

[Rooster]
Instead of less
Maybe we fix the game
With something shady.

[Lily] Where does that put us?
[Hannigan] Oh, tell her.
[Rooster] If you want: yes!

[Rooster, Hannigan, Lily]
Yes!
Easy street
Easy street
Annie is the key
Yes sirree
Yes sirree
Yes sirree
Easy street
Easy street
That's where we're gonna...be!
