(Mary Dee and Shanty's home)
MARY DEE (alone in bedroom)
The world you're coming into,
Is no easy place to enter.
Every day is haunted
By the echoes of the past.
Funny thoughts and wild; wild dreams
Will find their way into your mind.
The clouds that hang above us,
May be full of rain and thunder.
But in time they slide away
To find the sun still there.
Lazy days and wild. wild flowers
Will bring some joy into your heart.
And I will always love you,
I'll welcome you into this world.
MARY DEE and BOY SOLO
You-re mine and I will love you.
SHANTY
]Where-s my dinner?
I've been working hard all day
And a man can work up quite an appetite that way.
What's for dinner?
Something nourishing and hot?
I could tackle quite a lot of 'you know what'
And all I've got to say to you is 'Why no dinner?'
I've got nothing on my plate.
It's expected of a mate.
Whyd 'ya have to make me wait?
Where's my...
MARY DEE
This is the way we put out the candle.
Farewell to childhood.
Deep in the wild wood a fire goes out,
And what are we left with
Now we are grown up?
SHANTY
This is the way we pull up the anchor.
Goodbye to romance.
Out on the ocean a good ship is lost,
And what are we left with
Now we are grown Up?
MARY DEE
Time to be thinking of real life feelings.
I must get on.
SHANTY
Time to be buying those little trinkets
I can't afford.
Lord knows
I want to give her the best.
But where will
I find the rest of the cash?
MARY DEE
It's one mad dash
To fame and fortune.
