Finale lyrics
Soundtrack: Rent
ALL SEVEN HOMELESS
Christmas Bells Are Ringing
Christmas Bells Are Ringing
Christmas Bells Are Ringing
How Time Flies
When Compassion Dies
No Stocking
No Candy Canes
No Gingerbread
No Safety Net
No Loose Change
No Change No
ONE HOMELESS MAN
"Santy Claus is Coming"
ALL
Cause Santy Claus Ain't Coming
No Room At The Holiday Inn-Again
Well, Maybe Next Year--
Or--When
MARK
December 24th, Ten PM Eastern
Standard Time
I Can't Believe A Year Went By So Fast
Time To See-What We Have Time To See
Turn The Projector On
First Shot Roger
With The Fender Guitar He Just Got Out
Of Hock
When He Sold The Car
That Took Him Away And Back
ROGER
I Found My Song
MARK
He Found His Song
If He Could Just Find Mimi
ROGER
I Tried - You Know I Tried
MARK
Fade In On Mark
Who's Still In The Dark
ROGER
But He's Got Great Footage
MARK
Which He's Cut Together
ROGER
To Screen Tonight
MARK
In Honor Of Benny's Wife
ROGER
Muffy
MARK
Alison
Pulling Benny Out Of The East Village
Location
[The power blows]
ROGER
Then again. Maybe we won't screen it tonight.
MARK
I wonder how Alison found out about Mimi?
ROGER
Maybe a bird told her.
COLLINS
Or an angel.
I Had A little Hunch You Coudl Use
A Little 'Flow
ROGER
Tutoring Again?
COLLINS
Negative
MARK
Back At NYU?
COLLINS
No, No, No
I Rewired The ATM At The Food
Emporium
To Provide An Honorarium To Anyone
With The Code
ROGER & MARK
The Code-
Well...?
COLLINS
A-N-G-E-L
Yet Robin Hooding Isn't The Solution
The Powers That Be Must Be Undermined
Where They Dwell In A Small Exclusive
Gourmet Institution
Where We Overcharge The Wealthy
Clientele
ALL THREE
Let's Open Up A Restaurant In Santa Fe
With A Private Corner Banquette In
The Back
COLLINS
We'll Make It Yet, We'll Somehow Get To
Santa Fe
ROGER
But You'd Miss New York Before You
Could Unpack
ALL
OHH--
MAUREEN
Mark! Roger! Anyone - Help!
MARK
Maureen?
MAUREEN
It's Mimi - I Can't Get Her Up The Stairs
ROGER
No!
MAUREEN
She Was Huddled In The Park In
The Dark
And She Was Freezing
And Begged To Come Here
ROGER
Over Here
Oh, God--
MIMI
"Got A Light - I Know You - You're Shivering..."
JOANNE
She's Been Living On The Street
ROGER
We Need Some Heat
MIMI
I'm Shivering
MARK
We Can Buy Some Wood And Something
To Eat
COLLINS
I'm Afraid She Needs More Than Heat
MIMI
I Heard That
MAUREEN
Collins Will Call For A Doctor, Honey
MIMI
Don't Waste Your Money On Mimi, Me, Me
COLLINS
Hello-911?
I'm On Hold
MIMI
Cold...Cold...Would You Light My Candle
ROGER
Yes-We'll Oh God-Find A Candle
MIMI
I Should Tell You
I Should Tell You
ROGER
I Should Tell You
I Should Tell You
MIMI
I Should Tell You
Benny Wasn't Any--
ROGER
SHHH-I Know
I Should Tell You Why I Left
It Wasn't Cause I Didn't--
MIMI
I Know
I Should Tell You
ROGER
I Should Tell You
MIMI
I Should Tell You
I Love You--
ROGER
Who Do You Think You Are?
Leaving Me Alone With My Guitar
Hold On There's Something You
Should Here
It Isn't Much But It Took All Year
Back to the Rent SoundtrackChristmas Bells Are Ringing
Christmas Bells Are Ringing
