Letra Take Me Or Leave Me de RENT original

MARK
Valentine's Day...Pan across the empty lot. Roger's down

at
Mimi's where he's been for almost two months - tho' te
talks about selling his guitar and getting out of here.

(Still
jealous jf Benny)...God knows where Collins and Angel
are...could be that new Shanty Town by the river or a

suite
at the plaza...Maureen and joanne are rehearsing. That

is if
they're speaking this week...Me? I'm here. Nowhere.
MAUREEN
Every Single Day
I Walk Down The Street
I Hear People Say,
'Baby's So Sweet'

Ever Since Puberty
Everybody Stares At Me
Boys-Girls
I Can't Help It Baby

So Be Kind
Don't Lose Your Mind
Just Remember That I'm Your Baby

Take Me For What I Am
Who I Was Meant To Be
And If You Give A Damn
Take Me Baby Or Leave Me
Take Me Baby Or Leave Me

A Tiger In A Cage
Can Never See The Sun
This Diva Needs Her Stage
Baby-Let's Have Fun!

You Are The One I Choose
Folks'd Kill To Fill Your Shoes
You Love The Limelight Too, Baby

So Be Mine Or Don't Waste Your Time
Cryin'-'Honeybear-Are You Still My
Baby?'

Take Me For What I Am
Who I Was Meant To Be
And If You Give A Damn
Take Me Baby Or Leave Me

No Way-Can I Be What I'm Not
But Hey-Don't You Want Your Girl Hot!
Don't Fight-Don't Lose Your Head
Cause Every Night-Who's In Your Bed?
Who's In Your Bed, Baby?

Kiss Pookie

JOANNE
It Won't Work.
I Look Before I Leap
I Love Margins And Discipline
I Make Lists In My Sleep
Baby What's My Sin?

Never Quit - I Follow Through
I Hate Mess - But I Love You
What To Do
With My Impromtu Baby

So Be Wise
This Girl Satisfies
You've Got A Prize But Don't Compromise
You're One Lucky Baby
Take Me For What I Am

MAUREEN
A Control Freak

JOANNE
Who I Was Meant To Be

MAUREEN
A Snob-Yet Over-Attentive

JOANNE
And If You Give A Damn

MAUREEN
A Lovable, Droll Geek

JOANNE
Take Me Baby Or Leave Me

MAUREEN
And Anal Retentive!

BOTH
That's It!

JOANNE
The Straw That Breaks My Back

BOTH
I Quit

JOANNE
Unless You Take It Back

BOTH
Women

MAUREEN
What Is It About Them?

BOTH
Can't Live-
With Them-
Or Without Them!

Take Me For What I Am
Who I Was Meant To Be
And If You Give A Damn
Take Me Baby Or Leave Me
Take Me Baby
Or Leave Me

Guess I'm Leavin'
I'm Gone!
