Leo At Work / What Am I Waiting For? Lyrics

[PARADE CAST]
Evermore lives the dream of Atlanta
Evermore Her eternal pride!
Strong and sure is the dream of Atlanta
When Her brothers are unified

[LEO FRANK]
Twenty-eight boxes of caps
At four dollars the gross…
This is wrong, this is wrong
I can fix this, wait…
Nine more boxes in back
Twenty-eight minus nine…
And then thirty-one girls on the line
[LEO FRANK & ]Times six, one eighty-six…Divide, seven-sixty…God, all the noise, and on
Yontiff yet…
Four cents a girl for the week…At ten cents an hour…
[LUCILLE FRANK]
Mama, he’s comin’ around today
Mama, he’s at the door!
Mama, I don’t know what I should say…
“Well, what are you waitin’ for, Lucille?”
What am I waitin’ for?[LEO FRANK & ]
This is wrong, this is wrong
It’s an eight, not a six…
Yes, Lucille, I am building a life for usNo, Lucille, we cannot have a picnic[LUCILLE FRANK]
Didn’t my wishes come true for me
The day he walked through the door?
Isn’t he all that I knew he’d be?
Brilliant and filled with humility?
Loyal and stable as any tree?
So why do I wait for more?
What am I waiting for?[LEO FRANK & ]
Twenty-three cartons of leads, at two-sixty the gross…
This is wrong, this is wrong, I can fix this…Yes?Name?
