Annie is a 1982 American musical film produced by Rastar and distributed by Columbia Pictures based on the musical musical of the same name, which in turn was based on the 1924 Little Orphan Annie comic strip by Harold Gray.
The film is directed by John Huston, written by Carol Sobieski, choreographed by Arlene Phillips, and features an ensemble cast consisting of Albert Finney, Carol Burnett, Tim Curry, Bernadette Peters, Ann Reinking, Geoffrey Holder, Edward Herrmann, and Aileen Quinn in her feature film debut. The film tells the story of Annie, an orphan living in New York City who desires to have a good family. When she is taken in by billionaire Oliver Warbucks, she must avoid capture by her alcoholic caretaker and her brother.
Filming took place for six weeks on Monmouth University in New Jersey. Annie was released on May 17, 1982, and received mixed reviews from film critics. The sequel, Annie: A Royal Adventure!, aired on the ABC in 1995. A television film adaptation of Annie was also broadcast in 1999. A remake of the film produced by Will Smith is under development.
Plot
The Self-Realization of Kayla Lockwood is a psychological drama where each moment challenges the senses and is in itself an experience. Each actress seeks out and defines their own version of womanhood. There is tension, and struggle. The situations are understated, seem real, and are at sometimes a raw picture of human relationships. As its title suggests, the film captures characters in mid-bloom.
In the wake of a national tragedy, one young man must find his place in the world.
Plot
It's Annie's birthday and she's having lunch with her sex orientated friend Sophie, who encourages her to have experimental sex with her boyfriend John. It's going to be a little bit sexy, a little bit steamy and if all goes to 'plan' things might even get a little bit saucy, but thing don't always go to 'plan', sometimes birthdays go very bad.
Annie's Birthday goes very bad
Plot
A young girl struggles through a volatile relationship with a drug dealer. Cold and distant, he keeps her attached to him with small, regimented doses of affection that mean everything to her. As the cruel cycle continues, she closes herself off and recoils from those around her, allowing herself only to enjoy his overbearing arms.
Plot
Baby Annie is HIV positive and has been left in the clinic by her drug addicted mother. To prevent that she's deported to a home where they'd just wait for her to die, nurse Susan takes charge of Annie at her home. Two years later she plans too adopt her -- but suddenly Annie's mother reappears and demands her back. And under the law, Susan, as foster-mother, has no claim to the child.

Ohhhh, look stand tall, Annie
See the world grow small, Annie
But when will it fall, Annie, when will it be...
Winter has come, Annie
No friend in the sun, Annie
And when it's gone, Annie
Where shall we be?
All those colors have faded
When ol' Jack comes to call
Don't tell him no, tell him maybe
Ohhhhh now, Annie, may God bless us all
Oh yes Annie, God bless us all
Did the children they call, Annie?
Every leaf must fall, Annie
God bless us all, Annie
You're a little bit shy
A little too quiet
You're the mixed up girl
That everybody leaves behind
A little bit weird
A little too bright
But you just might be
That little bomb at their side
They'll pull your hair
They'll leave you wide-eyed
But did anybody wonder
What Annie might have in mind
On, no
There's something in the way she explains to me
"please be careful, I exist in someone else's head"
Oh, no
There's something in the way she makes believe
Please be careful
Annie dreams that everyone is dead
You're a little bit dry
A little up tight
You're the messed up girl
That everybody tries to hide
You've had enough
They're too unkind
But did anyone consider what Annie might have in mind
Watch her as she flew deep within the blue
A day out from the county I.C.U.
There's nothing you can do
Someone gently says to you
The doctor says that now it won't be long
I try and live up 'til the moment and I hope that I don't blow it
And what is it in me that she hears?
It's just a song she likes
Little arms around my neck
And a dying girl whispers in my ear
Tell me now can you feel it?
I've been keeping company with a ghost
She comes to me like a piece of summer
She comes to me on the days when I need it most
Well summer dies and nothing lasts forever
And you're so fine, the way you stand up to your fears
The summer dies and its just moments we have together
I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
For you and I, oh Annie
More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
My boyfriend took pictures of me as I held you
I travel alone and the loneliness brings me to tears
The summer dies and it's just moments we have together
I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years
For you and I, oh Annie
More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
Stronger than the hands that hold you
You sing along to the song on the radio
If I drank too much when I am reckless
Just this once would you forgive this
And hold on, the days gone by
Tell me now can you feel it?
I can't keep this all to myself
She's elegant and she means it, no
Years for you and I, oh Annie
More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie
Watch her as she flew deep within the blue
Watch her as she slips away from you
Annie dont wear no pannies [Repeat 3xs] Good thing Santa Clause didn't bring a lot of socks and draws

Annie dont wear no pannies [Repeat 3xs] She was sittin on the bathroom sink havin her a faucet drink
And you're sitting in your room
Enjoying entertainment
And you're watching tv
Colours bright and so enchanting
You couldn't be near her
Wouldn't hear what annie says
When annie's sad
You couldn't be near her
Wouldn't hear what annie says
And your waiting for your daily thrill impatiently ...
To collect it for your private horror show
And you're watching moving shadows live instead of you ... and you ...
You don't know that annie's living next to you
Jesus christ we love you so
Since we saw your tv-show
Suicidal tendencies, but no will to interfere
Feel it coming over you ... indifference ... indifference ...
Choosing channels watching news
Ignoring annie's point of view
You couldn't be near her
Wouldn't hear what annie says
When annie's sad
You couldn't be near her
Wouldn't hear what annie says
You couldn't be near her
Wouldn't hear when annie laughs ... when annie laughs
You couldn't be hear her
When I dreamed of all the lonely places, we’ve never been that far
We hide it just behind bars
Fought, embraced,didn’t give a toss bout what they thought of us
We lived our lives at the stars
High above the world
And in those hours of darkness you were standing next to me
Guess that made it worth while
Struggle for eternal fate, we always were on time
The thing to pack were our smiles
High above the world
And I know we did intend to
Scream and make our way right out of here
No locks could hlod us here
Cause crying doesn’t help and the light just made us feel
Annie - how long has life been beating you down?
Annie - turned into a girl looking for a way out
Annie - wanted to be loved like anybody else
Annie - keeps slipping away
I wish there were something to say to Annie
Kind words or praise just a little too late for
Annie - now those days are gone
Annie - always looked like she was having fun
Annie - Had so many problems that she kept from everyone
What she needed more than anything else is what she never had
Annie, you had your name in the brighter lights.
I thought I saw your photograph having such a laugh in a magazine,
Did it all come tumbling?
Annie, you were made for the big time.
They said you're a star to be in the NME,
But the walls came tumbling down, down. Did you go down on me?
'Cause Annie you're a star, that's just not going very far.
And all the world will know your name,
And you'll be famous as you are 'cause I'll sing for you.
Annie, would it be nice to be recognized?
Did you practice your autograph but now no one's asked and it's
such a shame,
That the dreams are crumbling?
Annie, why aren't you bathed in the limelight?
'Cause I thought that you said you'd be a celebrity several years
ago.
Did it all come tumbling down, down. Did you go down on me?
'Cause Annie you're a star, that's just not going very far.
And all the world will know your name,
And you'll be famous as you are 'cause I'll sing for you.
Annie your a star.
Who's just not going very far.
All the would know your name.
And you'll be famous as you are.
'Cause I'll sing for you
'Cause Annie you're a star, that's just not going very far.
And all the world will know your name,
And you'll be famous as you are 'cause I'll sing for you.
The night is slowly dying, all of the stars are gone
Your purse is on the table, the TV's on
You're lying on the bed asleep as pretty as can be
I love you, Annie
The day that I first saw you, you changed my mind
See I was moving forward, I thought I was fine
There was a hole there in my heart that only love could see
I love you, Annie
So hard to see what life without you
Would be like for me
Would the sky be as blue and grass as green?
Where would I be without you? Ooh
Time keeps moving faster, I don't know what to do
The pictures in the hallway will be changed so soon
And I pray that when my life is done that they remember me
You look like an angel
Your blue eyes leave a still impression
My friends miss you coming 'round
People talking 'bout it all over town
I never knew you then and I know you now
I don't know how, I don't know how
You'd sit in your house, you're writing out your will
He'd be there holding your baby and I'd be there holding him still
He said let me take you out so you can have some fun
But can we take your car 'cause I don't have one
This is like a car crash, it's in my car and he's driving
He said let's go for a ride, I'll take you anywhere you wanna go
I asked if maybe I could drive, he said, "No"
He'd be there holding your baby and I'd be there playing the grooves
But can we take your car 'cause I don't have one
But can we take your car 'cause I don't have one
But can we take your car 'cause I don't have one
I don't know how, I don't know how
I'm caught in a moment out in the rain
Tell me there's something we can say
Help me to find a light, something that's worth living
She's walking the back beat out in the grave
Tell me there's something we can change
Help me to find my way back down
'Cause Annie's got to get out before she never can
We're chasing for the ceiling, I'm grabbing for her hand
We're calling on a thin phone line tonight
'Cause Annie's got to get out
Holding the line from the back of the car
Miles and miles from where you are
Maybe the hardest things are the dreams that we've been given
And you scream and you sing and you shout
There's one way in and there's one way out
Help me to find my way back down
'Cause Annie's got to get out before she never can
We're chasing for the ceiling, I'm grabbing for her hand
We're calling on a thin phone line tonight
'Cause Annie's got to get out
There's one love in the morning and three days in the grave
Fall back in the evening, now our lives will change
I'm caught in a moment out in the rain
Tell me there's something we can say
Help me to find my way back down
'Cause Annie's got to get out before she never can
We're chasing for the ceiling, I'm grabbing for her hand
We're calling on a thin phone line tonight
'Cause Annie's got to get out, oh Annie's got to get out
Someday our eyes will turn hazy,
Remembering the laughter we shared like crazy…
I don’t know dudes when will we reunite
But I’m goanna miss you all infinite,
Each Memory is so precious…
It seems like heaven around us!
Splendid afternoon of campus
Guys freaked out with big fuss…
We had a different fun
`That would never turn
High dreams would fly
To touch the blue sky!!!
Without any reason
We celebrated every good n bad season
Come on, follow this concordant
Our college days are the best.
Among the crowd of million faces,
Torn memories are floating into pieces
Surely you’ll also miss like me
All those crazy things we used to be!
The nap in between boring lecture,
And the classes we all bunked together;
Pretty was the desire of hot guy,
But the match doesn’t imply…
Good girl concentrates on study!
She doesn’t believe in flattery;
Demand for the expensive food
Payment is the part of rich dude!!
Last min Copying assignments in an hour
N when we’d reach submissions would b over!!
All those funny things would
One day cover some pages of my book;
Someday when I’ll close my eyes…
This world will be beyond my sight;
The premises, that assembly of fest,
Emerged in fun, and we never cared
Yesterday may die, but tomorrow will never
Exams waiting for the next…
We always respect n remember
The dedication of our teachers
Though everything was frenzy
Since, we’re proud of our decency
Come on, follow this concordant
Our college days are the best.
{Still recall that first day of college
The battle of seniors,
When we were afraid of being ragged
These were the interaction}
God knows from when
My breath touches the good rain
Tender wet red roses
My innocence and your promises
Love holds our hands silently
The weather was so cloudy
Twinkling of your eyes!!!
It’s since like a surprise,
Whatever be the end
We’ll always be friends
Nothing to lose, you’re all in my heart
Here we got the most beautiful part
Convocation, the final gathering
Do you feel your tear’s smothering??
Let’s promise to be strong
Love, apology and this song
So don’t be late…
Come on and follow this concordant
[WARBUCKS]
I've made me a fortune
(That fortune made ten)
Been headlined
And profiled
Again and again
But something was missing
(I never quite knew)
That something was someone --
But who?
My speeches are greeted
With thunderous acclaim
At two universities
Bearing my name
Yes, something was missing
Each timeI got through
That something was someone --
But who?
Who could that someone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone?
he world was my oyster --
But where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I could find it
Yes something was missing --
But dreams can come true
That something
Is no one
But you
Who would need me for me ?
Need me for me alone
The world was my oyster
But where was the pearl ?
Who'd dream I would find it
In one little girl ?
Yes, something was missing
But dreams do come true
(verse)
She's a little girl
In a rich man's world
Everything she'll do
She'll do for you
He's a monster mash
Living on fame and cash
Badly spoiled
A loving dad
(chorus)
Some might say just give it up
There's no more hope, no fair (???)
Move the limits
Ooh wake up the animal in you
Some might say just give it up
There's no more hope, no fair (???)
Move the limits
Ooh wake up the animal in you
(bridge)
Girl, can't you see?
Come on now, set him free
Try open up his eyes
And make him realize his misery
He do not care
Sittin' over there
Get up, stand up now
Wake up the animal inside of you
(speaking)
I think it should be inside
thats my cigar
you'll steal another
hey bumma's we got work to do
since when did you become me mada
ahh stop your ballin
hey who asked you?
try bottle alley or the harbor
try central park its garenteed
try any banker, bum or barba
they almost all knows howda read
i smell money
you smell foul
met this girl last night
hey move you elbow
pass the towel
for a buck i might
chorus:
and its a fine life carrying the banner through it all
a mighty fine life carrying the banner tough and tall
every morning we goes where we wishes
wes as free as finshes
sure beets washin dishes
what a fine life carrying the banner through it all
its takes a smile as sweet as butta
the kind the ladies cant resist
it takes an orphane with a studda
who aint afraid to use his fist
summa stinks and winters wating
welcome to new york
boy aint nature fasinating
when yous gotta walk
chorus
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
Together at last!
Together for ever!
We're tying a knot,
They never can sever!
ANNIE
I don't need sunshine now,
To turn my skies at blue --
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
I don't need anything but you!
WARBUCKS
You've wrapped me around
That cute little finger.
You've made life a song .....
You've made me the singer!
ANNIE
And what's the bathtub tune
You always "Bu-Bu-Boo?"
WARBUCKS
Bu-Bu-Bu
Anything but you
ANNIE
Yesterday was plain awful
WARBUCKS
You can say that again
ANNIE
Yesterday was plain awful
WARBUCKS

Not now
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
That's then
ANNIE
I'm poor as a mouse,
WARBUCKS
I'm richer than Midas.
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
But nothing on earth
Could ever divide us!
And if tomorrow, I
'm an apple seller, too--
I don't need anything but you!

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

Where does that put us?

Oh, tell her.

And you know who you are (who you are)
Hey people don't look so down

Do what you want to do
Don't let the world get on you
Listen what I have to say
Then you will be okay
Come together!

Hey Annie, well look at you
Is that a new boy stuck on your shoe?
Come on Annie, how is it so?
You've always got a new bubble to blow
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna get done
I'm just a girl that's only chewing for fun
You spit it out when all the flavor has gone
Wrap him round your finger like you're playing with gum
(chorus)
Oh no, oh no, you've got it all wrong
You think you're chocolate when you're chewing gum
Oh no, oh no, a slip of the tongue
You think you're chocolate but you're chewing gum
Oh no
(speaking)
Was there anything else?
(verse)
Hey Annie, you used to be
The only girl to take it seriously
Come on Annie, tell us your trick
On how you keep on getting boys to stick
Okay I'll tell you why I never look back
It's my selection, it's my pick of the pack
Well hot dog, I'm a chewing machine
It makes me smile and it keeps my teeth clean
(chorus)
Oh no, oh no, you've got it all wrong
You think you're chocolate when you're chewing gum
Oh no, oh no, a slip of the tongue
You think you're chocolate but you're chewing gum (I just wanna chew gum)
Oh no, oh no, you've got it all wrong
You think you're chocolate when you're chewing gum
Oh no, oh no, no you're not the one
You think you're chocolate but you're chewing gum
Oh no
(speaking)
I don't want to settle down
I just wanna have fun
I don't want to settle down
I just wanna chew gum
I don't want to settle down
I just wanna have fun
I don't want to settle down
I just wanna chew gum
(verse)
Oh, I should have known
You're late again
No, no, no, no
And now I'm here
Will you appear?
I don't think so
Every single day
The same again
You keep me waiting
For somebody who don't care
At all
(chorus)
I don't wanna wanna
Be no primadonna
Tired standing waiting feeling like you never wanna
Say you're trying trying
Boy I know you're lying
Telling me we'll never be too late 'cause I was crying
You're so tricky tricky
Yeah now mister wicky
Now it's been an hour
Make me feeling freaky freaky
I can't take it take it
You stole my time and now it's...
Now it's too late
Now it's too late
Now it's too late
(bridge)
You didn't wait
What a mistake
Always too late
Ah...
Always too late
You didn't wait
What a mistake
Ah...
I can't take it
You can change it
Why you did so
Wrong?
Why you did it?
I can change it
Oh you did so
Wrong
(verse)
Where are you today
You said you'd call
You said you'd meet me
10 o'clock, it was no shock
You were not there
Foolish, 'cause I am
But then again
I keep on waiting
For somebody who don't care
No no
(chorus)
(verse)
What do I gotta do?
Take some look or two
To get over you
You treat me like a fool
Careless is your rule
That's why you're so cruel
(bridge)
You didn't wait
What a mistake
Always too late
Ah...
Always too late
You didn't wait
What a mistake
Ah...
I can't take it (what do I gotta do?)
You can change it (take some look or two)
Why you did so (to get over you)
Wrong?
Why you did it? (every single day)
I can change it (the same, the same again)
(speaking)
It's been a long time
Since I last saw your face
I know you still want me
Can't seem to fight
The way that I feel
You're my greatest hit
(verse)
We dance and groove in the disco lights
I want you alone with me tonight
Can I hold you, make you feel all right?
Really want to stay here all the night
(chorus)
Keep it comin' baby, can you dig it?
Thought I had to look all over for it
It's not easy but I have to admit
Come on baby you're my greatest hit
Keep it comin' baby, can you dig it?
Thought I had to look all over for it (yeah)
It's not easy but I have to admit
Come on baby you're my greatest hit
(verse)
Boy you make me feel I'm your only star
When we're together darkness seems so far
Take my hand and show me who you are
On a moonlight drive in a red old car
(chorus)
(break)
(chorus)
(verse)
Well I know
It wasn't really meant to happen
I tried to
You never ever cared to listen
You say you don't want me around
When I am feeling down
And won't be there to hold my hand
If I don't see your face again
I guess I need a brand new friend
Who will be there in every way
(chorus)
Hey come along and watch my game
Why can't you see
I don't need anyone?
All on my own I will get on
Remember you will be the only one
The lonely one
(bridge)
Ooh, why
You make it feel like it is
You and I
When there is nothing left to
What we had
It took me much too long to see
That I
I will get on
(verse)
Take your time
And realize your misdemeanor
Then you'll find
Your selfish (???) days are over
If I could ever turn back time
I wish you could be my
Everlasting, trusted friend
I must been blind I couldn't see
That you were never meant for me
How stupid could I be?

[WARBUCKS]
I know the Depression's depressing
[GRACE]
The carols are stilled
The stored aren't filled
[WARBUCKS]
And the windows are minus the dressing
[GRACE]
The children don't grin
The Santa's are thin
[GRACE AND WARBUCKS]
And I've heard a terrible rumour
No goodwill no cheer
[WARBUCKS]
But we'll get a new deal for Christmas
This year
[ANNIE AND ORPHANS]
The snowflakes are frighting of falling
[MOLLY]
And oh, what a fix
No peppermint sticks!
[WARBUCKS]
And all through the land folks are bawling
[GRACE]
And filled with despair
'Cause cupboards are bare
[WARBUCKS]
But Santa's got brand new assistants
There's nothing to fear
They're bringing a new deal deal for Christmas
This year.

Christmas
This year
I'll be on the next train.
See you at dawn.
A picture of us in the rain
Look and it's gone
Do you want my love or do want something I can't give you?
How can I be sure that what you said before had been true?
Auh hah hah .Will we ever . be the same?
Auh hah hah Will we ever?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Looking at the red, red sky thinking it through
Twenty-Seven days and nights since I saw you
Am I just a fool for wanting all of your attention?
So tell me if I'm right or heading in the wrong direction?
Auh hah hah . Will we ever . be the same?
Auh hah hah .Will we ever?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Don't leave me with these mixed emotions and dreaming of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Hope you are out there somewhere
Is our love, Is our love an illusion. Will it fly away?
Is our love, Is our love an illusion. Watch it fly away
It's all of, it's all of an illusion. (4x)
Auh hah hah . (2x)
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Don't leave me with these mixed emotions and dreaming of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Don't leave me with these mixed emotions and dreaming of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Burning with these mixed emotions thinking of you
Are you out there somewhere?
Auh hah hah

Maybe far away
Or maybe real nearby
He may be pouring her coffee
She may be straightning his tie!
Maybe in a house
All hidden by a hill
She's sitting playing piano,
He's sitting paying a bill!
Betcha they're young
Betcha they're smart
Bet they collect things
Like ashtrays, and art!
Betcha they're good --
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake
Was giving up me!
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake
They'll be there calling me "Baby"
Maybe.
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe she's made me
A closet of clothes!
Maybe they're strict
As straight as a line...
Don't really care
As long as they're mine!
So maybe now this prayer's
The last one of it's kind...
Won't you please come get your "Baby" [ANNIE AND ORPHANS]

If he should need the F.B.I.
Then he will have the F.B.I.

Oh, you won't be an orphan for long!

And disappear
He'll use his fortune and his wits.
So never fear
Cross the street
Or cross the sea
Annie, sweet
We guarantee
That you won't be an orphan...

Tomorrow morning it begins
You're with a man who always wins
Trust him and he'll prove
Mountains easily move

We'd like to thank you: Herber Hoover
For really showing us the way
We'd like to thank you: Herbert Hoover
You made us what we are today
Prosperity was 'round the corner
The cozy cottage built for two
In this blue heaven
That you
Gave us
Yes!
We're turning blue!
They offered us Al Smith and Hoover
We paid attention and we chose
Not only did we pay attention
We paid through the nose.
In ev'ry pt he said "a chicken"
But Herbert Hoover he forgot
Not only don't we have the chicken
We ain't got the pot!
Hey Herbie
[WOMEN]
You left behind a greatful nation
[ALL]
So, Herb, our hats are off to you
We're up to here with admiration
[SOPHIE]
Come down and have a little stew
[ALL]
Come down and share some Christmas dinner
Be sure to bring the missus too
We got no turkey for our stuffing
We'd like to thank you, Herbert Hoover
For really showing us the way
You dirty rat, you Bureaucrat, you
Made us what we are today
Grace: We got Annie.
Gardener: We've got Annie?
Grace: Yeah!
She's like the shine on your shoes,
or hearing a blues that's great.
Makes you relax,
like a big tax rebate!
We got Annie!
Servants: We got Annie! We got Annie? We got Annie!
Mrs. Pugh: And Benny Goodman's got swing.
Bing is a king, by far.
Mutt has got Jeff,

There is no easy love
the one I'm thinking of
I miss you every day
Please just stay around
you are my beat, my sound
my light, my destiny
You rang the door one of a Sunday morning
said that I was always on your mind
smiled and said it's meaningless without me
girl, you're really one of a kind
There was never anyone
until you just came around
so afraid to be abandoned
can't afford to lose again
There is no easy love
the one I'm thinking of
I miss you night and day
Please just stay around
you are my beat, my sound
my light, my destiny
All I want to do
is to be with you
have some fun with you, yeah
Tired of the past
it was not a blast
I don't want to do the same mistake again
I called you up to say that I am sorry
for all the things I said and I had done
you told me to relax and not to worry
you said to me that I was the one
I had been working day and night
try to forget your smile so bright
didn't know what I should do
so afraid to choose again
The foolish things we do
we wish for something new
like me when I had you
It doesn't matter to me
whatever you choose to be
my great velocity
Would you talk to me?
come along with me
curiosity, yeah
Would you talk to me?
come along with me
leave the past and now this time you'll see (won't you see?)
There is no easy love (easy love)
the one I'm thinking of (thinking of)
I miss you everyday (everyday)
(no no easy love)
If you call this romance (this romance)
I haven't got a chance (ain't got a chance)
you're my destiny (destiny)

Christmas
What is it about you
You're big
You're loud
You're tough NYC
I go years without you
Then I can't get enough
Enough of the cab drivers answering back
In the language far from pure
Enough of frankfurters answering back
Brother, you know you're in NYC
Too busy, too crazy
Too hot, too cold, too late
I'm sold again on NYC
Come on you slowpokes
We gotta get to the Roxy before the prices change
The shadows at sundown
The roofs, that scrape, the sky
The rich and the rundown
The parade goes by
That other town has the Empire State
And a mayor, five foot two
No other town in the whole forty eight
Can half compare to you
Oh, NYC
You make 'em all postcards
You crowd, you cramp
You're still the champ
Amen For NYC, NYC
The shimmer of Times Square
The pulse, the beat
The drive, NYC
The city's bright
As a penny arcade
It blinks, it tilts, it rings
To think that I've lived here all of my life
And never seen these things
Oh, NYC
The whole world keeps coming
By bus, by train
You can't explain
Their yen for
Star to be NYC
Just got here this morning
Three bucks, two bags
One me NYC
I give you fair warning
Up there in lights I'll be
Go ask the Gershwins or Kaufman and Hart
The place they love the best
Though California pays big for their art
Their fan mail comes addressed to NYC
Tomorrow a penthouse
That's way up high
Tonight the "Y"
Why not? It's NYC
You're standing room only
You crowd, you cramp
You're still the champ
Amen For NY
Keep it quiet down there
Immediate seating, there is immediate seating
Popcorn, what do you say to some popcorn?
I haven't had popcorn since
Give in, don't fight
Good girl, good night
My best friend, where are you?
Tell me, where are you?
Can't seem to find you anywhere
Will I ever meet you?
Thought I saw you last night smiling at me
Thought I heard your voice calling for me
Did I imagine it, was it a dream?
What do you look like, are you just like me?
My best friend, where are you?
Tell me where are you?
Can't seem to find you anywhere
Will I ever meet you?
Thought I saw you last night smiling at me
Thought I heard your voice calling for me
Day after day looking for something new
Closer and closer the ones that we knew
My best friend, where are you?
Tell me, where are you?
Can't seem to find you anywhere
Will I ever meet you?
Oh will I ever meet you?
Want you to know
You're not alone
You'll find a way
There's always someone out there
(verse 1)
It's time to tell my story
Of a girl I used to know
Always cried into her pillow
Under pin-ups on the wall
She didn't make Italia Conte
Didn't get that TV show
Then a nice man said he'd help her
With a new portfolio
(bridge)
Missus B Missus E Missus A-U-T
Missus I Missus F-U-L
I'm gonna reach the top
I ain't ever gonna stop
And I'm sure gonna ring your bell
Missus D Missus I Missus F-F-I
Missus C Missus U-L-T
If ever there's a girl
That could rock your world
Then that girl sure is me
(right!)
(chorus)
So the fun won't start 'til she's living it up
Feeling good on top of the pops
When you make it me plus one
Dress falls down at the aftershow
She breaks down on the video
Think you'll find it's me plus one
(verse 2)
Now this wannabe señorita
Met a group of likely girls
Traded posters and the voxpops
For jetting round the world
But it didn't make her happy
And now she flies alone
The wrong pictures in the paper
And no one back at home
(bridge)
(chorus)
(middle 8)
(speaking)
People around you
Won't tell you how it is
Don't you think it's gone on long enough?
Take a look at yourself
Get out of the car
You know it's time
You've got to let it go
It's gone
(bridge)

Little girls
Little girls
Everywhere I turn I can see them
Little girls
Little girls
Night and day
I eat, sleep and breathe them
I'm an ordinary woman
With feelings
I'd like a man to nibble on my ear
But I'll admit
no man as bit
So how come I'm the mother of the year?
Little cheeks
Little teeth
Everything around me is little
If I wring
Little necks
Surely I will get an acquittal
Some women are dripping with diamonds
Some women are dripping with pearls
Lucky me! Lucky me!
Look at what I'm dripping with
Little girls
How I hate
Little shoes
Little socks
And each little bloomer

I'll step on their freckles
Some night
I'll straighten their curls

With all the nuts and the squirrels
There I'll stay

No need to pick up any toys.
[ANNIE]
[spoken] That's okay, I haven't got any anyway.
[GRACE]
No finger will you lift my dear.
[ALL]
We have but one request, please put us to the test.
[ANNIE]
I know I'm gonna like it here.
Used to a room in a tomb,
where I'd sit and freeze.
Look at me now, holy cow,
could someone pinch me please.
[GARDNER]
[spoken] Hi Annie, got somethin' for ya!
Here you are Annie!

We hope you understand, your wish is our command.
[ANNIE, GRACE AND SERVANTS]
I know I'm gonna like it here.
I know your girlfriend hates me
I see it in her eyes
The way she looks right on me
It opens up in time
I know your girlfriend hates me
See you know it's true
The way she hangs upon you
And watches every move, come on
Girl you think you're something
But have I got news for you (who)
I don't mind
If it's the cold and sadistic you like
But now I'm thinking
Who's wearing your trousers now
She's no good
Oh stop pretending she's misunderstood
I heard her saying it's either me or her
Smell the coffee, boy, and open your eyes
Life's too long for you to get it wrong
I know your girlfriend hates me
I see it in her eyes
The way she looks right on me
It opens up in time
I know your girlfriend hates me
See you know it's true
The way she hangs upon you
And watches every move, come on
Girl you think you're something
But have I got news for you (who)
Oh poor you
With all your lockets that have broken in two
Does she get a little excited, don't hide it
I heard her screaming in the dead of the night
Life's too long for you to get it wrong
I know your girlfriend hates me
I see it in her eyes
The way she looks right on me
It opens up in time
I know your girlfriend hates me
See you know it's true
The way she hangs upon you
And watches every move, come on
Girl you think you're something
But have I got news for you (who)
Ringy dingy ding ding ding ding
Ringy dingy ding ding
Ringy dingy ding-a ding ding ding
Ringy dingy ding ding
Girlfriend wants to see who's calling
Freaking out, your phone keeps going
Ringy dingy ding ding ding ding
Ringy dingy ding ding
Life's too long
I know your girlfriend hates me
I see it in her eyes
The way she looks right on me
It opens up in time
I know your girlfriend hates me
See you know it's true
The way she hangs upon you
And watches every move, come on
Girl you think you're something
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
Together at last!
Together for ever!
We're tying a knot,
They never can sever!
WARBUCKS
I don't need sunshine now,
To turn my skies at blue --
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
I don't need anything but you!
WARBUCKS
You've wrapped me around
That cute little finger.
You've made life a song .....
You've made me the singer!
ANNIE
And what's the bathtub tune
You always "Bu-Bu-Boo?"
WARBUCKS
Bu-Bu-Bu
Anything but you
ANNIE
Yesterday was plain awful
WARBUCKS
You can say that again
ANNIE
Yesterday was plain awful
WARBUCKS
But that's
ANNIE
Not now
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
That's then
ANNIE
I'm poor as a mouse,
WARBUCKS
I'm richer than Midas.
WARBUCKS AND ANNIE
But nothing on earth
Could ever divide us!
And if tomorrow, I
'm an apple seller, too--
I don't need anything but you!
They're two of a kind
The happiest pair now
Like Fred and Adelle, they're floating
On air now
And what's the title of the dream
WARBUCKS
I don't need anything
ANNIE
Anything
Anything
I don't need anything
(verse)
I saw you
It was a rainy day in May or June
I couldn't help it
God, you looked so fine
I just had to make you mine, all mine
Well I'm a helpless fool for love
Instantly
I cannot eat nor sleep, no
Hard to breathe
You read my love so easy
A, B, C
Twist my mind around and 1, 2, 3
Then I'm a helpless fool for...
(chorus 1)
Ah...
When he walks (?)
When he talks
When he moves
Makes my day
I'm the helpless one
Ah...
Not unkind
I don't mind
When he talks
Just a rush
I'm a fool for love
(verse)
All shook up
I know it's stupid to precipitate
Without getting all humiliate
Didn't know what I should say or do
Everything I'll give to you and me (when I'm here without you)
We're gonna have a riot
Trust in me (I can't live without you)
I'm gonna make you happy
What you need (helpless fool without you)
I'll give you everything
I'll try to be (you know, you know, you know, you know, you know)
Still your helpless fool for...
(chorus 2)
Ah...
When he walks
When he talks
When he moves
Makes me feel
I'm a fool for love
Ah...
What a joy, you're my boy
And it seems like a dream
Now I'm all shook up
Ah...
Need you, Doctor Love
Are you there?
Every day I'm the helpless one
Ah...
Not unkind
I don't mind
When he talks
Just a rush
I'm a fool for love
I am a helpless fool for love
I am a helpless fool for love
I am a helpless fool for love
(chorus 2)
(verse)
There was a time
Everybody was around
And I was dancing with you
We all went down
To a party Friday night
And had a drink there or two
Oh what a heap
Of love and heartbeat
It's so electricity
Majestic sound
Round and round and round
I'm glad you're next to me
(chorus)
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the symphony
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the melody
Come and see
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the symphony
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the melody
Come see
(verse)
Time after time
Everybody came around
And I was dancing with you
Don't know your name
Making me ashamed
To feel the way that I do
The lights went out
Couldn't be without
It was the place to be
I won't forget
Greatest dance I had
When I was dancing with you
(chorus)
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
We all want it now
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
We all want it now
Somehow
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the symphony
Feel my heartbeat
Truly to the beat
Love the melody
Come see
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat now
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat
Feel my heartbeat now somehow
There was a time
Everybody was around
And I was dancing with you
Don't know your name
Making me ashamed
To feel the way that I do
The lights went out
Couldn't be without
It was the place to be
I won't forget
Greatest dance I had
(speaking)
Without you, yeah
Come on
(verse)
It took a long time
But I'm back again for good
It really hurt me
But now I finally understood
The day I left you
Must be the greatest in my life
I hear without you
There's only peace around, no fight
I tried so hard to
Oh doing everything I could
Manipulated
Made to think I was no good
In your possession
Every day was a bad dream
So naïve then
Well I was young and sixteen
(chorus)
Oh...
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey
Oh...
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without you honey
(speaking)
Funny how things change, yeah?
Yesterday would all be a lie
I told you
Now it's all good
(bridge)
I'm feeling down
It took a time
It took a time for me to heal for what
I thought was love
But I was wrong
Blinded by your flashy love
When I was weak
And you were there
Well it was obvious you did not care
About the one
No you don't bother
Well I'm happy without you, honey
(verse)
Oh yeah they told me
You should be careful what you do
They only use you
For his pleasures and absurds
The love I gave you
It was the last that you deserved
Call us a nice time
To own somebody, that's absurd
(chorus)
Oh...
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey (happy without you honey)
Oh...
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without you honey (oh oh oh happy without you)
Oh...
He was my honey
He was my honey
Happy without no honey
Happy without you
I'm happy without you
(speaking)
It's been a long time
Since I last saw your face
I know you still want me
Can't seem to fight
The way that I feel
You're my greatest hit
(verse)
We dance and groove in the disco lights
I want you alone with me tonight
Can I hold you, make you feel all right?
Really want to stay here all the night
(chorus)
Keep it comin' baby, can you dig it?
Thought I had to look all over for it
It's not easy but I have to admit
Come on baby you're my greatest hit
Keep it comin' baby, can you dig it?
Thought I had to look all over for it (yeah)
It's not easy but I have to admit
Come on baby you're my greatest hit
(verse)
Boy you make me feel I'm your only star
When we're together darkness seems so far
Take my hand and show me who you are
On a moonlight drive in a red old car
(chorus)
(break)
[HEALY]
[spoken] This is Bert Healy saying ...
[singing now] Hey, hobo man
Hey, Dapper Dan
You've both got your style
But Brother,
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Your clothes may be Beau Brummelly
They stand out a mile --
But Brother,
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Who cares what they're wearing
On Main Street,
Or Saville Row,
It's what you wear from ear to ear
And not from head to toe
(That matters)
So, Senator,
So, Janitor,
So long for a while
Remember,
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
[BOYLAN SISTER]
Ready or not, here he goes
Listen to Bert
Tap his smilin' toes

[spoken] Ah, the lovely Boylan Sisters
[BOYLAN SISTERS]
Doo doodle-oo doo
Doo doodle-oo doo

Your clothes may be Beau Brummelly
They stand out a mile
But, bother
You're never fully dressed
You're never dressed
Without an

Annie's up at seven on a work day
Brewing up a cup of peppermint tea
Gathering her papers and lesson plans
She grabs her keys
Teaching arithmetic and Africa
Geology and girl's basketball
All the kids in her class
Will tell you she's the best
But she's heard other teachers in the hall saying
CHORUS:
"What are we going to do about Annie?
Pretty girl like her shouldn't be alone
If she took our advice, dressed up real nice
She'd find a man to take her home."
Mondays come with questions of couples
Where and with whom did you go?
Avoiding the personal pronoun
She hopes it doesn't show
Shopping with her lover in the city
Two women holding hands don't get a stare
If the kids at school knew, what would they do
Would they hate her? Why should they care? Tell me
CHORUS
Never getting too close to a student
Never letting out too much of her life
Keeping her delights and disappointments
Tucked out of sight
Annie takes herself to the Christmas party
The principal whispers with a smile
"You're vivacious and bright, if you play your cards right
There're some men here tonight worth your while" thinking
CHORUS
Work that you love is hard to come by
The kids she could never bear to lose
So she makes conversations out of silences
And half-truths
But at night by the fire with her lover
She looks out at the wind-driven snow
And imagines the day when she'll look in their faces
And tell everybody she konws--she'll tell 'em
LAST CHORUS:
Don't you worry about Annie
She don't lie awake and pine
Got love to fill her heart, flowers growing in the garden
Annie, told me,
Get out of here, head for the sea,
The sun is hot and the air is clean
The best things in the world are free
And Mister Murphy
Likes his Jackanory
Holsten Export times three
Jimi Hendrix and Thin Lizzy
Annie, Annie, Annie
Met a mate in the afternoon
Holsten shore line pub crawl
Looking for some cold beer
Missed the stone punch drunk Judy
Tony, brandy, M.G., Andy
Vodka, scotch and loads of beer
It's so great we want to stay here
The smell of the ocean on her skin
The rags of her dress blowing in the wind
A chorus of angels on the boardwalk
They know what you did in the dark
I never meant to hurt you Annie
Leave you standing with the gun
Come and play with me little Annie
Lose yourself, lose yourself
I lay her back on the cold sand
And wipe the blood from her hand
I fix her hair and kiss her chest
The secrets die in her breathe
I never meant to hurt you Annie
Leave you standing with the gun
Come and play with me little Annie
Lose yourself, lose yourself
Oh no, her hands are cold
Oh no, I played with her soul
All night again

Annie
You filled our life with a song
Annie, so long friend I will see you if and when our roads might cross
again but if they don't you know I wish good luck to you. I take my leave
but do believe that like the sea I am always there to call on any time your
Annie I hope things line up for you
All in a row, shiny and new
You can't keep on living in one small room
When you never let anyone in, you never let anyone in
Annie you think the whole world's been cruel
All of the stars took advantage of you
Your mother was cold and your daddy'd no love
So you stomped your feet till they noticed
You stomped your feet till they put on the kid gloves
Now they're walking on egg shells, they're walking on glass
They sing hallelujah each time that you pass
Someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
Annie you think the boys never play it fair
Tripping you up, sticking gum in your hair
Wherever you run it's yourself you'll face there
And he might be gone when you need him
And he might be long gone when you find you care
'Cause he's walking on egg shells, he's walking on glass
He sings you a lullaby each time you ask
And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
Annie I love you, but that's always been clear,
It's the layers of history that won't let us hear
Twisted compassion that's burning our ears
The distance from there to here
The distance from there to here
C'ause I'm walking on egg shells, I'm walking on glass
I sing you a lullaby eachtime you ask
And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
Coz your gambling again and the stakes are too high
Your ante is fear, my bet is desire
Took you far from the truth, into the fire again
Annie I hope things line up for you
All in a row, shiny and new
You can't keep on living in one small room
When you never let anyone in, you never let anyone in
There once a girl
Who lived by the fence,
She smiled watercolors.
And she sang and she lived.
Though happy she seemed,
She did not quite fit in.
In her world we created,
She saw nothing but sin.
She's run away.
Chorus
Oh, Annie, I will love you,
And won't you please, won't you come home today?
Oh, Annie, I will need you,
And won't you please, won't you come home to stay?
Oh, Annie's run away.
I heard you've been 'round,
Sleepin' all over town,
Trying to make ends meet,
They say you've nothing to eat.
Well, Annie, I've been there
And I know what it's like.
See, we've all got our cross to bear;
Still, that don't make it right
To run away.
-Chorus-
[bridge]
Heaven hears Mom cryin',
Momma fears Dad's dyin',
All because their baby's run,
All alone,
Won't you come home?
Annie, won't you please?
Annie, won't you please?
Oh, Annie, I will love you,
Oh, Annie, I will need you,
Oh, Annie, I will love you.
There was a girl named Annie
She had a very pretty face
And not the way you would think so
Let me see if I can try to explain it
She had a smile, it could light up a room
And if she moved, it? d be movin? in you
But she wasn? t like a magazine
She was just plain Jane and her name was Annie
She never looked in the mirror
She never liked what she would see
And even if I tried to tell her
She never listened to a word I? d say
She always wanted what she never had
But never had what she needed so badly
Someone tellin? her she was fine
And that? s not right and it? s why I? m sayin?
Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, don? t just lie there
Looks don? t make the world go 'round
But it comes around
And Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, please don? t cry here
I always have to stop myself
? Cause you? re beautiful
I didn? t know if I could tell her
I didn? t know if I could make her see
She didn? t need to find her beauty
She didn? t need to find a way to show me
They took her moments of feelin? alive
And made them moments of dyin? inside
She needed someone to scream her name
To take her pain and it? s why I screamin?
Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, don? t just lie there
Looks don? t make the world go 'round
But it comes around
And Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, please don? t cry here
I always have to stop myself
? Cause you? re beautiful
And Annie, you are the one sight
My eyes never tire of
It? s like I cannot get enough of you
Annie, you are the one song left in my symphony
Like you were made for me
Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, don? t just lie there
Looks don? t make the world go 'round
But it comes around
And Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, please don? t cry here
I always have to stop myself
? Cause you? re beautiful
And Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, don? t just lie there
Looks don? t make the world go 'round
But it comes around
And Annie, don? t be shy here
Annie, please don? t cry here
I always have to stop myself
Have to stop myself, have to stop myself
? Cause you? re beautiful
? Cause you? re beautiful
'Cause you? re beautiful
There was a girl named Annie
Annie I don't know, she said
He has gotten all in my head
Seems like we are playin' a game
That I can't help but feel that I'm losin'
[Chorus]
Annie I think it's over
Annie I think it's over, again
Annie I just need some more time
I need to straighten out this heart of mine
I never thought that I could feel so scared
I knew I never wanted to break his heart
[Chorus]
Annie you know I loved him more than life
Now I'm having feelings I just can't hide
I've been fighting a war inside my head
Now I know that he's my only weakness
[Chorus]
annie knows when it's me
knows how I'm feeling
and gives me her healing
oh annie
sit down beside me
let me confide in you
you know when I'm blue
you know when I'm lonely
and honey I'm lonely
I'm going down
going down
going down
annie, daddy won't let me
daddy won't let me go
and that's why I feel so low
oh annie
sit down beside me
let me confide in you
you know when I'm blue
you know when I'm lonely
and honey I'm lonely
I'm going down
going down
going down
Annie, I hope things line up for you
All in a row, shiny and new
You can't keep on living in one small room
When you never let anyone in
You never let anyone in
And Annie, you think the whole world's been cruel
All the stars took advantage of you
Your mother was cold and your daddy'd no love
So you stomped your feet till they noticed
You stomped your feet till they put on the kid gloves
Now they're walking on eggshells, they're walking on glass
Sing hallelujah each time that you pass
And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
And Annie you think the boys never played fair
Tripping you up, sticking gum in your hair
Wherever you run, it's yourself you face there
And he might be gone when you need him
And he might be long gone when you find you care
'Cause he's walking on eggshells, he's walking on glass
He sings you a lullaby each time you ask
And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
And Annie, I love you, that's always been clear
It's the layers of history that won't let us hear
The twisted compassion that's burning our ears
The distance from there to here
The distance from there to here
'Cause I'm walking on eggshells, I'm walking on glass
We sing you a lullaby each time you ask
And someday you'll pick yourself up off your ass and go
'Cause you're gambling again and the stakes are too high
Your ante is fear and my bet is desire
Took you far from the truth and into the fire again
And Annie, I hope things line up for you

You never let anyone in, you never let anyone in
