Alan Campbell - Let's Have Lunch lyrics

[JOE] Hi there, Myron [MYRON] How's it hanging? [JOE] I've got a date with Sheldrake [MYRON] I'm shooting a Western down at Fox [JOE] How can you work with Darryl? [MYRON] We should talk [JOE] Gotta run [BOTH] Let's have lunch [MARY] Hi, Mr. Gillis [JOE] You look great! [MARY] I'm up for an audition [JOE] Sheldrake is driving me insane [MARY] Don't forget me when you're casting [JOE] We should talk [MARY] Gotta run [BOTH] Let's have lunch [JOE] Morning, Joanna [MARY] Hi, there Myron [JOANNA] Who are you meeting? [MYRON] You look great [JOE] Sheldrake, but do I need it [MARY] I've spent the last month fasting [JOANNA] I'm handing in my second draft [MYRON] I'm shooting a Western down at Fox [JOE] I'd really love to read it [MARY] Don't forget me when you're casting [JOANNA] We should talk [MYRON] We should talk [JOE] Gotta run [MARY] Gotta run [ALL FOUR] Let's have lunch [JOE, spoken] Yeah, I had an appointment with Mr. Sheldrake [JONES, spoken] Name? [JOE, spoken] Gillis. Joseph Gillis [JONES, spoken] All right, sir, you know your way? [JOE, spoken] Yeah [FIRST FINANCEMAN] We want the keys to your car [SECOND FINANCEMAN] You're way behind with the payments [FIRST FINANCEMAN] Don't give us any fancy footwork [SECOND FINANCEMAN] Give us the keys [JOE] I only wish I could help I loaned it to my accountant He has an important client down in Palm Springs Felt like shooting the breeze [FIRST FINANCEMAN] Are you telling us you walked here? [JOE] I believe in self-denial I'm in training for the priesthood [SECOND FINANCEMAN] O.K., wise guy, three hundred bucks [FIRST FINANCEMAN] Or we're taking the car [SECOND FINANCEMAN] We have a court order [JOE] I love it when you talk dirty [SAMMY] Bless you, Joseph [JOE] That you, Sammy? [SAMMY] How do you like my harem? [JOE] How come you get such lousy breaks? [SAMMY] One learns to grin and bear 'em [GIRLS] This is the biggest film ever made [JOE] What're you playing? [ANITA] Temple virgin [DAWN] Handmaiden to Delilah [JOE] Let's have lunch Gotta run You've got to find me a job I'm way behind with my payments I thought you were meant to be my agent I need some work [MORINO] I only wish I could help This town is dead at the moment There's been this slowdown in production [JOE] Who is this jerk? [MORINO] He's my wunderkind from Broadway Every major studio wants him [YOUNGER MAN] Playing one against the other [JOE] What I need is three hundred bucks [MORINO] Maybe what you need is a new agent [JOE] Hello, Artie [ARTIE] Joe, you ba*tard! [JOE] You never call me any more [ARTIE] Found a cuter dancing partner How are things? [JOE] Not so great [ARTIE] Will this help? Twenty bucks? [JOE] Thanks, you're a pal [ALL, spoken] Good morning, Mr. DeMille [SHELDRAKE] This is Sheldrake Bring some water Get me that sh**head Nolan Nolan, sweetheart Great to talk This draft is so much brighter You're the best Even so I've hired another writer [SECRETARY, spoken] Mr. Gillis [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Joe! What the f** brings you here? [JOE, spoken] You wanted to see me [SHELDRAKE, spoken] I did? What about? [JOE, spoken] "Bases Loaded." It's an outline for a baseball picture [SHELDRAKE, spoken] So, pitch [JOE, spoken] It's about a rookie shortstop. He's batting .347. The kid was once mixed up in a holdup. Now he's trying to go straight [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I think I have read this Somebody, bring in what we've got on... [JOE, spoken] "Bases Loaded." [SHELDRAKE, spoken] ..."Bases Loaded." [JOE, spoken] They're pretty hot for it over at Twentieth [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Good! [JOE, spoken] But can you see Ty Power as a shortstop? [ENSEMBLE] Let's have lunch [BETTY, spoken] Here's that "Bases Loaded" material, Mr. Sheldrake I made a two-page synopsis for you, but I wouldn't bother to read it [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Why not? [BETTY, spoken] It's just a rehash of something that wasn't very good to begin with [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Meet Mr. Gillis. He wrote it [ENSEMBLE] We should talk [SHELDRAKE, spoken] This is Miss Kramer [BETTY, spoken] Schaefer. Betty Schaefer. And right now, I'd like to crawl into a hole and pull it in after me [JOE, spoken] If I could be of any help... [BETTY, spoken] I'm sorry, Mr. Gillis, I couldn't see the point of it [JOE, spoken] What sort of material do you suggest? James Joyce? Dostoyevsky? [BETTY, spoken] I think pictures should at least try to say a little something [JOE, spoken] I see you're one of the message kids I expect you'd have turned down "Gone With the Wind" [SHELDRAKE, spoken] No, that was me [ENSEMBLE] Gotta run [BETTY, spoken] And I guess I was disappointed I've read some of your other work and I thought you had some real talent [JOE, spoken] Yeah, that was last year. This year I felt like eating [BETTY, spoken] Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Gillis [SHELDRAKE, spoken] Thank you, Miss Kramer Well, looks like Zanuck's got himself a baseball picture [ENSEMBLE] We should talk Gotta run Let's have lunch [JOE] You've got to give me some work I'll take whatever's on offer There must be some sh** that needs a rewrite Throw it my way [SHELDRAKE] I only wish I could help There's no spare sh** at the moment Remember the greatest writers starved in garretts Didn't care about pay [JOE] Are you trying to be funny? [SHELDRAKE] I believe in self-denial Gives a man some moral backbone [JOE] Can you loan me three hundred bucks? [SHELDRAKE] I'm sorry, Gillis. Good-bye [JOE] I just love Hollywood [MORINO] Let's pencil Thursday morning [MYRON] Morning, Joanna [CLIFF] Where've you been hiding? [SAMMY] Hi there, Lisa [MYRON] How're you doing? [KATHERINE] I hate this weather [CLIFF] You look great [LIZ] RKO are ok! [MARY] What're you doing? [JOANNA] You look great [GIRLS] This is the biggest film ever made [CLIFF] I'm trying to make my mind up [MARY] Guess I was born to play her [DAWN] What is my motivation? [JOANNA] You look great [SAMMY] They're talking nominations [LIZ] You should go work for Warners [MYRON] Is your new script with Sheldrake? [MORINO] I'm very close to Sheldrake [ARTIE] We shoot next month [SAMMY, SANDY, ARTIE, MORINO, MYRON] Gotta run [JOHN] Let's drive to Vegas this weekend [KATHERINE, JOANNA] Let's have lunch [ANITA] You look great [JOANNA] I'm handing in my second draft [MARY] It's between me and Dietrich [KATHERINE] I've landed a big Broadway show [ADAM] I'm gonna work for Metro [CLIFF] Let's have lunch [MARY] Let's have lunch [GIRLS] Let's have lunch, this is the biggest film ever made [MYRON] I'd really love to read it [CLIFF] I'd know just how to light you [JOHN] Let's have lunch [JOHN/LISA] It won't work [MORINO] Let's pencil Thursday morning [GROUP 1] We should talk [GROUP 2] Gotta run [ALL] Let's have lunch!
