Lyrics of In The Way by Beth Leavel,Matthew Gumley,Original Broadway Company Of Elf The Musical
DEB
ONE P.M. MEETING WITH THE STAFF
LECTURE THEM ON THE BOARD′S BEHALF
AND CONDEMN GIVING WORKERS CARTE BLANCHE
WALTER
MY JOB HAS MANY FACTORS
DEB
ONE FIFTEEN CUT OUR PENSION SIZE
RECONVENE WITH THE UNION GUYS
IN BETWEEN CLOSE OUR DELAWARE BRANCH
WALTER
AND LIQUIDIZE OUR ASSETS
DEB
CHOOSE A DATE FOR THE MEETING WITH
GLOBAL FREIGHT
WALTER
TRY THE TWENTY-FIFTH
EMILY
WALTER, WAIT!
ALL
NO ONE WORKS ON THAT DAY
WALTER
See?! CHRISTMAS ALWAYS GETS IN
THE WAY
DEB
HALF PAST TWO, LEGAL WANTS A CHAT
WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH,
LECTURE OVER AT
N.Y.U. ON OUTBIDDING TAIWAN
WALTER
WELL, IT′S ME ALMA MATER
DEB
IN THE CAR, MEET NEW SALE DEMANDS
AU REVOIR TO YOUR DINNER PLANS
TELL H.R. THEY'LL BE WORKING TILL DAWN
WALTER
OR ELSE THEY'RE IN HOT WATER
EMPLOYEES
EMPLOYEES UNDER MR. HOBBS
LEARN TO PLEASE JUST TO KEEP THEIR JOBS
WE KNOW HE′S MORE CONTENT WHEN WE SAY
WALTER
All together now!
ALL
CHRISTMAS ALWAYS GETS IN THE WAY
EMILY
Walter, Christmas is five days away, we don′t even have a tree.
WALTER
WHAT'S THE BIG BROUHAHA
OVER "FA LA LA LA"
IT′S A CHILDISH ORDEAL
I MEAN FLYING REINDEER? LET'S GET REAL
OLD SANTA′S SLEIGH
JUST BRINGS MORE BILLS TO PAY
SO I GOTTA WORK OR FEEL THE SQUEEZE
MONEY DOESN'T GROW ON CHRISTMAS TREES
EMILY
Alright, let me see that calendar! If not today, how about tomorrow?
Let′s see ...
HALF PAST ONE, BUY A TREE TO TRIM
HE'S YOUR SON
WALTER
I REMEMBER HIM
EMILY
DON'T MAKE FUN, THERE′S TOO MUCH TO DISCUSS
WALTER
MY BUDGET NEEDS REWRITING
EMILY
TWO O′CLOCK, SKATING IN THE PARK
THEN A WALK UNTIL AFTER DARK
HERE'S A SHOCK, SPEND AN EVENING WITH US
MICHAEL
YAY, MOM AND DAD ARE FIGHTING
WALTER
HAVE NO DOUBT, IT′S THAT TIME OF YEAR
THINK ABOUT HOW I'M BURIED HERE
(To others)
HELP ME OUT
EMPLOYEES
IT′S ALL WORK AND NO PLAY
WALTER & EMPLOYEES
'CAUSE CHRISTMAS
CHRISTMAS
CHRISTMAS
CHRISTMAS
WALTER
What does it always get?
ALL
IN THE WAY!!
WALTER
All right, everyone back to work!
