Prologue: 911 Emergency / I Have So Many Songs

Lyrics

[Ensemble] 911 Emergency Take him down to NYU Stroke's a possibility [Rhoda] I should try to locate Roger! [Richard] Lift him carefully on one, two, three [Ensemble] And up! [Richard] Check the pulse And watch his eyes [Nancy] Call the department of neurology [Rhoda] I should try to locate his mother! [All] Somebody try to locate his mother! [Richard] When was he last seen eating? [Rhoda] I don't know! [Nancy] Hysterics are self-defeating Don't you know? [Dr. Jafar Berensteiner] Presence of bleeding [Dr. Jafar and Nancy] Where this [Dr. Jafar] Whole mess is leading [Dr. Jafar and Nancy] We cannot say for sure yet [Richard] Is the IV secure yet? [Rhoda] I should try to cancel my therapy [Ensemble] And then [Rhoda] I should get in touch with his mother [Ensemble] And then [Rhoda] I should try to locate Roger! [Gordon] All the songs I never wrote Fizzle and remake All the songs I did not start All the rhymes I never made All the stories I delayed In telling Are welling up Inside my brain I should explain I have so many songs I have so many songs I have so many songs
