Lyrics:
MICHAEL(To the tune of “Have you not wondered”):
THERE IS A REASON WHY THINGS HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT
THERE’S BEEN SOMETHING I’VE HELD IN
SOPHIE: He’s gay isn’t he?
MICHAEL:
YES, BUT I DIDN’T KNOW BEFORE THE PARTY, THAT
NIGHT I SAW SOMETHING IN HIM
Sophie stares in horror at Michael
DON’T GIVE ME THAT LOOK HE CAME ONTO ME
I BRUSHED HIM ASIDE AS I SHOULD
THEN ONTO YOU WITHOUT MUCH DIGNITY
I WOULD HAVE HELPED IF ONLY I COULD
BUT YOU SAW SOMETHING IN HIM
AND YOU BOTH SAW SOMETHING IN ME
SOPHIE:
DON’T YOU SEE IT WAS ALWAYS ABOUT YOU AND
I BELIEVE WE COULD STILL WORK IN LOVE
THOUGH YOU REJECTED ME ONCE I’VE HAD TIME TO FORGIVE
MICHAEL: We have to find Alex, air all this out in the open. We can talk about whatever this is
(points between them) after.
SOPHIE: It kinda hurts you know. Being rejected twice.
Michael kisses Sophie.
MICHAEL: How’s that for rejection, now come on, let’s find him.
They find Alex sitting alone, reading a book.
ALEX(To the tune of “look at me”):
SO YOU HAVE FOUND ME,
PLEASE GO AWAY
MICHAEL:
ALEX QUIT SULKING, THIS
NEEDS TO HAPPEN TODAY
ALEX:
OH GREAT AN INTERVENTION JUST FOR ME
SOPHIE:
ALEX WE’RE HERE FOR YOU
PLEASE TRY TO SEE
LOOK AT ME
GO ON LOOK AT ME
SAY THE TRUTH NO MATTER THE SIZE
ARE YOU NOT TIRED OF THE LIES?
PLEASE LOOK AT ME
AND I THINK YOU’LL AGREE
WE COULD NEVER WORK
YOU WERE TOO FLAWED
YOU WERE NOT TRUE TO YOU
ALEX:
WHAT! I’M NOT TRUE LET’S JUST
LOOK AT WHAT’S BEEN(BIN)
YOU PRETENDED TO LOVE ME WHEN
REALLY YOU LOVED HIM
SOPHIE:
WHY DOES THAT MATTER? YOU’RE
GAY JUST CONFESS
ALEX:
DID MICHAEL TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN US?
MICHAEL:
YES
SOPHIE:
MORE OR LESS
