Christy Carlson Romano - Leo at Work / What Am I Waiting For? lyrics

[TOWNSPEOPLE] Strong and sure is the dream of Atlanta When Her Brothers are unified! [LEO] Twenty-eight boxes of caps At four dollars the gross This is wrong, this is wrong, I can fix this—wait Nine more boxes in back Twenty-eight minus nine And then thirty-one girls on the line... [LUCILLE] Suit and a tie... Terribly quiet... Quite a well-paid position “Go on, Lucille...” “Bring him his coffee...” [LEO] Times six, one eight-six... Divide... seven sixty... God all the noise, and on Yontiff yet... Four cents a girl for the week... At ten cents an hour... [LUCILLE] Straight from New York, Lucille! Isn't he smart, Lucille? Mama, he's comin' around today Mama, he's at the door! Mama, I don't know what I should say... “Well, what are you waitin' for, Lucille?” What am I waiting for? [LEO] This is wrong, this is wrong, It's an eight, not a six... [LUCILLE] House and a maid; Two sets of china Everything I was wishin' New winter coat; Real ermine collar Who would have known, Lucille? Married so well, Lucille? How can he want me, so plain, so prim? How can he be so sure? Don't I wish I could be sure like him? Like Leo? [LEO] Yes, Lucille, I am building a life for us... [LUCILLE] For Leo? [LEO] No, Lucille, we cannot have a picnic... [LUCILLE] Didn't my wishes come true for me The day he walked through the door? Isn't he all that I knew he'd be— Brilliant and filled with humility? Loyal and stable as any tree? So why do I wait for more? What am I waiting for? [LEO] Twenty-three cartons of leads At two sixty the gross This is wrong, this is wrong, I can fix this— (spoken) [MARY] Hey. [LEO] Yes? [MARY] I came for my pay. [LEO] Name? [MARY] Mary Phagan.
