Because youse had it coming.



Open to PRISON. In one cell stands MARIE-PASCALE, a slender, tall 50something woman with a curly black bob, who looks pretty good for her age. The next cell holds CAROLINE, a short woman with middle aged spread with a oddly cute gnome-like face and dark but graying straight hair cut in a bob. The last cell holds LISA, a pale, short thing with big eyes, big boobs, full lips and long dark hair. All of them are in fishnets, lingerie and dancing shoes.

[MARIE-PASCALE (spoken)]
I met Richard through Le Grand Magic Circus, I was an acrobat with dreams of stardom, he was the tall obnoxious mime who swiped a couple of cherries out of my hand. (Mime comes in, does boxes around Marie, wraps himself around her) I was young and stupid, so I thought it was charming. After a quickie ceremony at city hall and two children, we went to Los Angeles. (She does a handstand on a chair, with the mime circling around her) Apparently, he wanted to offend as many people as possible, and I was to be part of it. We did this movie called Forbidden Zone, it's okay if you haven't heard of it, only six people have, and that's because Danny did the music. We did manage to get the midget from Fantasy Island to star in it (A little person runs in, and circles around the mime and Marie), along with all the other weirdos that flutter around Richard and Danny. The midget, however, took a liking to me. I tell Richard, "If that midget pinches my ass one more time, I'm leaving." He said, "Let him do more than pinch your ass and we might knock off a thou for his retention fee."

He had it coming

I betcha you would
Have done the same!
He had it coming

Tim and I got along like a house on fire, and well, he did portraits of me and I had cameos in his movies. (A freaky haired skinny guy holds Lisa's hand and dances with her) Thing was, I may look like Barbara Steele but sound like Meadow Soprano when I open my mouth. So, I have this small role in Planet of the Apes where I wouldn't die, and that was when I decided to surprise Tim by taking accent reduction classes. I was so excited, I wasn't even worried about who he casted in the lead: Helena Bonham Carter, the home-wrecker of London. (A blonde woman struts in at this point) I had finally finished classes, after months of shooting, walk into his trailer and I see him banging away at her. (Freaky haired guy and blonde woman now tangoing) What was his story? He tripped, fell and landed on top of her? (Freaky-haired guy is dipped by woman)

[GIRLS]
He had it coming
He had it coming
He only had himself
To blame
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would
Have done the same
He had it coming
He had it coming
He only had himself
to blame
If you'd have been there
If yo'd have seen it
I betcha you would
Have done the same!

[ALL]
Hah! He had it coming
He had it coming
He took a flower
In its prime
And then he used it
And he abused it
What he did ought
to be a crime!

[ALL]
Mime, Maui, rewrite

[CAROLINE (Spoken)]
I met Danny while we were working on Edward Scissorhands. (A skinny guy with a tuxedo and wild red hair twirls around) He thought my stories were great, I was fascinated by his persistant fear of death. Apparently, that included a fear of loss of control too. By the time we were working on Nightmare, I started to see more and more of Big Time Composer Overlord moments. (Now he lunges around Caroline) I asked for one goddamn re-write, and he screams, "I'm Jack Skellington, not you!" After that, I decided we were better collegueges than lovers.

How could you tell us
How could you tell us That we were wrong?
That we were wrong?

He had it coming

Someone asked me to write songs for him. No clue if I can do it. Or writing the next short story. It's more keeping the main characters into focus while introducing minor characters that will be important later. Or the new bits for my novel. I did go to my aunt's birthday party and had damn good vanilla cake.
