We Built This City / Too Much Time On My Hands

We Built This City/Too Much Time On My Hands -Rock Of Ages Original Broadway Cast

Mayor we don't know the first thing about these people

Or even what they want to build

Say you don't know me

Or recognize my face

Say you care who goes to zat kind of place

Knee deep in the hoopla

Sinking in your fight

Too many runaways

Eating up ze night

Marconi plays ze mamba

Listen to the radio

Don't you remember

We built this city

We built this city on

Clean efficient living

Exactly

But mayor think about the businesses already there

What abuot them

They're calling it economic redevelopment Apparently

The Bourbon no longer generates an adequate tax revenue

That's why I keep telling you

We need to bring back naked jello wrestling Thursdays

But this time check it we let women enter

Maybe it's time to cash it in anyway

Whoa Dennis What're you saying

It's just I'm sittin on this barstool

Talkin'like a damn fool

Got the twelve o'clock news blues

And I've given up hope

For the afternoon soaps

And a bottle of cold brew

Is it any wonder I'm not crazy

So chew a couple Prozac Come on Dennis

Is it any wonder I'm sane at all

You do wash your hands a lot

Is it any wonder

I've got too much time on my hands

And it's tickin'away

Tickin away from me

Hold the phone Do you guys see what's in today's paper

Monster rockers Arsenal are breaking up

According to sources lead singer Stacee Jaxx will leave the band

After this tour to pursue a solo career

Perfect right Lonny who gave Arsenal they're start

We did So

So what if we hosted they're last gig ever

The last Arsenal show here

Tell me that wouldn't generate an 'adequate tax revenue

Plus Stacee still owes me from

That hotel incident with the Cool Whip and the baby llama

Love it

I just hope it's enough

It's gotta be I mean the mayor isn't a total money grubbing whore Wink

Mayor you're not thinking clearly

Mayor take ze money unt

Rid this city

Noooooo

We'll rid this city of rock and roll

Not this city

Regina you're fired

We'll rid this city of rock and roll

You're not gonna get away with this

Haha I can't believe you still have his number

Stacee It's Denbo

Who

Dennis Dennis Dupree Listen How would you like to do your Arsenal farewell

Show here at the Bourbon

Yeah well we already got something

Planned for our last tour gig in Portland so

I understand that But just imagine for a second your last gig

In a place that started it all A lot of press on something like that

Yeah it sounds cool but ah

And of course we'd put your name above the band

STACEE JAXX And Arsenal One night only Right before a solo album

Which just between you and me I'm so glad your doing

You know what I always used to say about you

What

Well you're a jet feul genuis

You can solve the world's problems

Without even tryin'

It's true

I got dozens of friends

And the fun never ends

That is as long as I'm buyin

Is it any wonder I'm not the president

I'd vote for you Stacee

Is it any wonder I'm null and void

I don't even know what that means

Is it any wonder

I've got too much time on my hands

And it's tickin'away

Tickin'away from me

Too much time on my hands

Tick tick tickin'away

Too much time on my hands

I don't know what to do

Too much time on my hands

We'll rid this city

Too much time on my hands

Of rock and roll

Too much time on my hands

Too much time on my hands

Too much time

Shall I call ze bulldozer

Remember when you that baby llama

I'll do it
