How the Other Half Lives (另一半人是怎样生活的) - Angela Christian/Sutton Foster

Written by：Jeanine Tesori/Dick Scanlan

This is living this is what I call living

I've hungered for this day since heaven knows when

Year after year with a secret yen

All of my prayers all my desire

Ev'ry waking moment with my heart afire

Give me the meat without the gravy

I'll take the oyster sans the pearl

Pinching pennies clipping coupons

See a brand new world unfurl

Let me brown bag all my lunches

Try my hand at canned cuisine

A Berlitz class I long to pass

How the other half

How the other half lives

No fourteen karat cronies phonies

Fair weather friends

I want an on the dole mate soulmate

Stormy weather friends

Pour me the milk but hold the honey

Bring on those funny money woes

Paying Paul by robbing Peter

Layaway to buy my clothes

Summer on the Isle of Coney

Winter in hell's kitchenette

I'll turn my dial to rank and file

How the other half

How the other half lives

Poor not me honey

I don't want those money woes

I'll marry Paul or Dave or Rob or Peter

So I can buy my clothes at Saks Fifth Avenue

Bergdorf Goodman too

The privileged few plus you know who

How the other half

How the other half lives

I'm on the way up

I'm on the way down

It's a good thing we met in the middle

Pour me the milk but hold the honey

Bring on those funny money woes

Paying Paul by robbing Peter

Layaway to buy my clothes

Summer on the Isle of Coney

Winter in Hell's Kitchenette

A wild sojourn

So I can learn

Livin' like the other half
