Now You Know - Patti Lupone

作曲：Michael Korie/Scott Frankel

Now you know

Fine lady

Now I hope you know

How it feels to find yourself outside

I too am called a nouveau riche pretender

The Jew's application gets return to sender

Live and learn

Dear lady

Now enjoy your turn

Barred from places I have been denied

For now you know how far

From one of them you are

And now I know how much it wounds your pride

You may be fairer than me

A good deal blonder than me

But socially they value you no fonder than me

You think you've made the grade

You think you've earned the win

But when you try to join the club

Guess who's not getting in

Not getting in

Right

Not that this brings us closer than it ever did

Not that I feel some kinship that I never did

Now you see

Great lady

How it's been for me

Some circles are restricted to you too

A woman scales the wall

Climbs high above them all

And oh what gates of hell they put her through

So now we know

God help us all we know

The way that life can twist the knife

In you
