Christopher Hampton - Girl Meets Boy (Reprise) lyrics

[JOE] How about They don't know each other He works the night shift And she takes cla**es all day? Here's the thing They both share the same room Sleep in the same bed It works out cheaper that way [BETTY] I've a feeling you're just kidding But to me it sounds believable Makes a better opening than that car chase scene Girl find boy, borrowing her toothbrush Or oversleeping Or at her sewing machine [JOE, spoken] You know, it's not bad, there are some real possibilities [BETTY, spoken] Who's Norma?

[BOTH] I know that we can
