For
many years, orphan girl Annie wishes her parents would return for her and get
her out of the orphanage from the strict Miss Hannigan. Warbucks appears on
Bert's radio show, offering money to help find Annie's parents. Annie and the
girls get excited and dance to "You're Never Fully Dressed."
But
then, something goes terribly wrong. The radio starts glitching and through the
static, a demonic voice can be heard. Dad jokes, electro swing, and broadcasts
of murders start appearing on all the radios. A mysterious brown-haired mixed
radio host named Alastor arrives, claims to be desperate for money and food.
Grace
encourages Warbucks to adapt Annie, and Annie hopes to be able to leave the
orphanage. But things turn south when Hannigan's brother and his girlfriend
pose as her parents. Even worse, a new serial killer is on the loose, hungry
for revenge and entertainment.
No
one knows what will happen with the strange supernatural occurrences and the
rush for people to raise her. But one thing's for sure...
Annie
isn't safe anymore.
Now
she must reunite with Grace, Warbuck and her friends and escape the greedy
couple...if Alastor doesn't end up finding her first...
The scene starts off
with a brief snippet of Alastor's death in New Orleans in 1933. In Hell, he
desires to go back to New Orleans to broadcast more murders and eat individuals
who were cruel to him. He notices how some lower class demons get influenced by
his radio broadcasts. After hearing from an overlord that "humans would be
good bait to use in war," he gets an idea.
With the help of I.M.P.
Alastor gains access to Earth, but he accidentally ends up in New York instead.
He looks over and sees his old radio he used to listen to when he was a kid. (It
even had his name engraved on the side). Apparently, several people bought it
from an antique shop in New Orleans and added it as a stage prop, after
thinking it was “cool” that it had been cursed. As the radio was part of him,
it allowed him to take on his physical demon form on Earth once he reunited
with it. Annoyed in shadow form, Alastor emerges from the radio and proceeds to
kill everyone at the show. The radio gets smashed by falling debris before
Alastor can reach it, breaking his darken heart. He flees the gory scene and
the survivors wake up, not remembering what had happened (due to the radio
being destroyed). (off screen, he uses his blood to create his human body
disguise).
Scene shifts to Annie. Annie
first lives in an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan, who forces them to
clean the building all day. Annie hopes that her parents will return for her,
and she keeps half of a locket as her treasured possession, to remind her of
them. Annie adopts a stray dog named Sandy, but gets taken back to the
orphanage by police.
Annie travels to
Warbuck's mansion where she meets the many servants and bodyguards. Warbucks
lets her stay and takes her to the Radio City Music Hall to watch a movie.
Warbucks appears on the
radio show, offering money to help find Annie's parents. Annie and the girls
get excited and dance to "You're Never Fully Dressed."
But then, something goes
terribly wrong. The radio starts glitching and through the static, a demonic
voice can be heard. Dad jokes, electro swing, and broadcasts of murders start
appearing on all the radios. A mysterious brown-haired mixed radio host
arrives, claims to be desperate for money and food.
(Alastor actually died
the same year and, with the help of imps, traveled to Earth through radios in a
disguise in an attempt to get back to New Orleans).
Hannigan, her brother
and his girlfriend search through Annie's belongings and plan to use the locket
to pose as her parents. But Alastor's shadow steals it away from them!
The more Annie spends
time with Alastor, the more suspicious Grace and some of Annie's fellow orphans
get. Sandy, the dog, growled and sensed
evil in Alastor from the beginning, but Annie told Sandy not to be mean to “our
new guest.” Like Charlie in Hazbin Hotel, Annie dances and sings with the
disguised demon, getting more influenced when the radio is on. (no romantic
love). Alastor's demon reflection is revealed in mirrors. Kate notices it and
warns Annie that a "monster lives inside him," though Annie doesn't
believe it.
Not having to worry as
much about environmental threats and survival, Alastor begins another killing
rampage, hunting deer and selfish adults while broadcasting again. He carves
sigils onto their flesh, ensuring they become his slaves/prey back in Hell. The
radios around him additionally served as hiding places for him after murders.
Meanwhile, the newspaper
gets a new heading "Random Serial Killer on the Loose." Another headline
reads "Similar Kill Count to the now deceased New Orleans Deer Devil
Cannibal," triggers back memories, making Alastor go insane. After
debating on several terms such as the "Bayou Killer," "Devil of
New York," among others, the public comes up with "Brusier of
Broadway."
Alastor broadcasts
murders, dad jokes, and news, influencing others to tune in and listen. All the
orphans are influenced by it…Alastor gaining more power. Sandy barks loudly,
briefly snapping them out of their trance. Hannigan was follows Sandy into the
room, threatening to butcher him. Hannigan, in a drunken haze does something
redeemable for the first time: she yells “Stop having fun, get to work, and
turn that thing off!” The static and noise was giving her a headache, the pain
overriding the trance powers. Despite the girls trying to stop her, Hannigan
smashes the device against the floor, the girls shaking their heads. “Whose
drunk now?” she retorts.
The other girls later
tell Warbucks and Grace that Annie had been kidnapped by Rooster and Lily. The
police begin a search. Rooster attempts to kill Annie and he knocks his sister
away. Before Rooster can reach her, he is brutally stabbed by Alastor. Alastor
reveals his plan to possess Annie and several others in both Hell and on Earth
to create a diverse army to take down racist individuals, providing him with
food and entertainment. (He only harms adults). His human disguise falls away
and Annie watches in horror as he begins to eat Rooster and Lily. Punjab
rescues her and destroys the radio before Alastor possessed her and she
reunites her with Grace and Warbucks.
Alastor would get
distracted and a bit scared of Sandy the dog (as he had died due to rabies,
being shot in the head and getting attacked by dogs).
A local church and
police forces arrive and team up to defeat Alastor. He gets shot several times
with guns and reels back when several silver crosses are held up. Not too far
away, the imp portals begin to close and weaken...dragging him back to Hell
(similar to how Dr. Facillier did but was more accepting of his fate and smiled
the whole time). Annie lives with Grace and Warbucks and her friends arrive for
the party. "Brusier of Broadway Vanquished in Less Than a Week."
Annie didn't listen to
the radio for several years afterwards. The scene ends with Alastor singing
"You're Never Fully Dressed" on a radio in Hell, the old locket next
to it, then saying "stay tuned, folks."
Commencing June 2020

Bet they collect things
Like ashtrays and art.

Fifi, That ain't a name for this mutt.
So how about Champion?
Champion you're anything but.
We could call him Tiger, But there's no bite in him,
Tiger! Kittens would frighten him.
Rover! When you think it over,
Rover is the perfect name for this dumb look-in' dog.
Sandy, Sandy's his name if you please.
If you don't be-lieve me ask anyone of the fleas
Residing on Sandy,
True he ain't pedigreed, Sandy, there ain't no better breed.
And he really comes in handy,
'Specially when you're all alone in the night
And you're small and terribly frightened it's
Sandy, Sandy who'll always be there!
So how about Champion?
Champion you're anything but.
We could call him Tiger, But there's no bite in him,
Tiger! Kittens would frighten him.
Rover! When you think it over,
Rover is the perfect name for this dumb look-in' dog.
Sandy, Sandy's his name if you please.
If you don't be-lieve me ask anyone of the fleas
Residing on Sandy,
True he ain't pedigreed, Sandy, there ain't no better breed.
And he really comes in handy,
'Specially when you're all alone in the night
And you're small and terribly frightened it's
Sandy, Sandy who'll always be there!

Miss H: Well My goodness, won’t you come in. Welcome to our happy home. She pretends to be nice to orphans .
Miss H: What did you say your name

Grace: Grace.
Miss H: Aptly named.
G: I'm here to inquire about an
orphan.
H: Look Grace I can explain the
whole thing. You see...what happened...she escaped in the laundry and I know I
should have called Mr. Donatelly but I saw red so I called the cops instead.
Anyway she's back and she's fine. No harm done huh?
G: Miss Hanagen, whatever are you
talking about?
H: Wait a minute, honey are you
peddling beauty products? Coz clearly I don't need no beauty products G: I'm
the private secretary of Mr. Oliver Warbucks
H: Oliver Warbucks the millionaire?
G: Oliver Warbucks the billionaire.
H: My Lord!
G: Mr. Warbucks would like to
invite an orphan to spend a week with him.
H: Isn't that nice. What sort of
orphan did he have in mind?
(Annie sticks her head in through
the door)
G: Well, friendly, intelligent…
(Annie: (whispering) Spells out MISSISSIPPI)
G: And happy.

slams door.)

age guessed)
H:7
G: 8
H:8
G:9
H: 9
G: 10
(Annie makes stop gesture)
G: 10 is perfect. Oh I almost
forgot. Mr. Warbucks prefers red headed children.
H: 10 year old red head, No, sorry.
Ain’t got it!
G: What about this child?
H: Annie? You don't want Annie.
G: Why not?
H: She's a drunk!
G: Fiddle sticks! Annie, how would
you like to spend a week with Mr. Warbucks in his house?
Annie: Oh boy, I would love that!
H: Slow down, hold on. You can have
any child you want in the whole orphanage except Annie.
G: Why?
H: Because she's got it coming to
her and I don't mean a week in the lap of luxury. This brat's got to learn her
place!
G: Her place!
H: And Annie's entirely too cheeky.
G: Well Mr. Warbucks loves cheeky
orphans.
H: Tough.
G: I assume your objection is
something to do with Mr. Donatelly and the board of New York Orphans?
H: Don't assume nothin sweetheart.
G: Well Mr. Warbucks and Mr.
Donatelly are like that.
H: Is that a fact?
G: Yes and he was at the house just
the other day and he was saying how many people he had lined up for your job.
H: Is that a fact?
G: Yes that's a fact. It's an awful
time to be out of work isn't it Miss Hanagen?
H: It's terrible.
A: Leapin Lizards!
Miss H (imitating Annie) Leaping
Lizards.
Annie: Come on Sandy. This is my
dog. He's real nice and he almost never jumps up on people.
(Sandy jumps up on Grace)
G: He's a really sweet dog Annie
but I'm not sure Mr. Warbucks would approve.
Annie: Then I can't go.
G: What?
Annie: She said she would take him to the
sausage factory.
H: I'm not a sucker for dogs.
G: We'll take the dog!
Annie: Oh boy!

Mr. W: Has the painting arrived?
G: Yes sir.
(Painting is held up for him. It's the Mona
Lisa)
W: I don't like it. Send it back. Any
messages?
G: Yes. President Roosevelt called
3 times. He said it was urgent.
W: Everything is urgent to a Democrat.
What else?...Wait! There's something interesting about that woman's smile. I
might learn to like her. Hang that in my bathroom.
G: Mr. Warbucks I'd like you to
meet...
W: Why do I smell wet dog?
(Annie comes out from hiding with
Sandy )
Annie: Because we gave Sandy a bath.
W: What's this?
G: This is Annie, sir. This is the
orphan who will be staying with us for a week
W: Orphan. What are you talking
about?
G: Sir, it’s a press story for the
papers remember? It's only for a week.
W: This doesn't look like a boy.
Orphans are boys
G: Oh you didn't say you wanted a
boy sir. You just said an orphan so I got a girl.
W: I want a boy.
Annie: I've got an interesting smile too sir.
Don't you think you could like me too sir? Hang me in the bathroom?
W: Take them back now!
G: Oh Sir but she only just got
here.
Annie: That's ok. We'll be ok. It
was real nice meeting you anyhow. I sure do like your place.
W: Thank you Annette.
Annie: Annie. I've had a really swell time.
The driver came in a car the size of a train Mr. Warbucks and we made Drake
sneeze and I played your pipe organ and Sandy got a bubble bath. And well I've
had enough fun to last me for years. It’s really a swell idea to have an orphan
stay for a week Mr. Warbucks. Even if it’s only for your image. Even if I'm not
the orphan I'm glad you're doing it.
W: I'm glad you approve. Let's get
to work.
G: Are you sure you need a boy?
Couldn’t she stay? It’s only for a week.
W: Whatever but just for the week.
Scene 8b
(Miss Hanagen is listening to the
radio)
Male voice: I Love you.
H: I love you too.
Male voice: Kiss me as only you can.
H: Oh you devil!
(She kisses the radio. Orphans see and laugh)
H: Get away!
(Song: Little Girls)
Little girls
Little girls
Everywhere I turn
I can see them
Little Girls
Little Girls
Night and day
I eat, sleep and breathe them
I'm an ordinary woman
With feelings
I'd like a man to nibble on my ear
But I'll admit, no man has bit
So, how come I'm the mother of the year?
How I hate
Little shoes
Little socks
And each little bloomer
I'd have cracked
Years ago
If it weren't for my
Sense of humour
Some woman are drippin' with diamonds
Some woman are drippin' with pearls
Lucky me!
Lucky me!
Look at what I'm drippin' with
Little girls!
Little cheeks
Little teeth
Everything around me is little
If I wring
Little necks
Surely I will get an acquittal
Some day I'll step on their freckles
Some night I'll straighten their curls
Send the flood
Send the flu
Anything that
You can do
To, little (little, little), little (little, little)
Little girls
Some day I'll land in the nuthouse
With all the nut and the squirrels (giggle)
There I'll stay
Tucked Away
Until the prohibition of
Little girls
Little girls
Everywhere I turn
I can see them
Little Girls
Little Girls
Night and day
I eat, sleep and breathe them
I'm an ordinary woman
With feelings
I'd like a man to nibble on my ear
But I'll admit, no man has bit
So, how come I'm the mother of the year?
How I hate
Little shoes
Little socks
And each little bloomer
I'd have cracked

Scene 9
(Rooster and Lilly appear)
H: Rooster.
R: Sis.
H: You're supposed to be in jail.
R: They let me out early.
Lilly: On account of his good behavior.
R: I want you to meet a friend of mine. Lilly
St Regent.
L: Named after the motel.
H: Room Service.
R: This very afternoon I got my nose on this
beautiful horse 8 to 1. All I need is 5 bucks to tide me over.
H: Not even a nickel for the subway.
R: Oh come on sis.
H: I bet you miss stick fingers here can lend
you a lousy 5 bucks.
L: I beg your pardon. I'm short but I don't
stoop to what you're incinerating.
H: Give me back the goods toots.
(Jewelry is pulled from Lilly's pickets and
top.)
H: Ok Rooster if I loan you 5 bucks will you
take this dumb hotel and just get the heck outta here?
R: I'm sorry sis. Not even a nickel for the
subway.
L: You and her have the same mother? (
she takes something on the way out)
Hanagen checks her bag when they leave and her purse is gone.)
H: (Screaming) Rooster!!!!
Scene 10
(Warbucks is practicing squash and
Annie runs back and forth for fun)
A: Thanks so much for having me to
stay. Mr. Warbucks. I’ve had the greatest time and Miss Farrell has been just
so kind and all the staff. You know she really thinks you're sliced bread but
you don't notice.
W: Sliced bread huh?
A: I've had enough fun to last a
life time that it won’t even matter when I go back to that stinking orphanage.
W: How do you remain so positive?
A: I sing a little song and everything seems
better.
(Song:
Tomorrow)
Annie
The sun'll come out tomorrow...
Bet your bottom dollar that
Tomorrow, there'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow
'Til there's none!
When I'm stuck with a day
That's gray,
And lonely,
I just stick out my chin
And grin and say...
Oh...
The sun'll come out tomorrow
So you gotta hang on 'til tomorrow
Come what may!
Tomorrow!
Tomorrow!
I love ya, tomorrow!
You're only a day away!
To-morrow!
Tomorrow!
I love ya, tomorrow!
You're only a day...
A-...wa-a-a-ay!
The sun'll come out tomorrow...
Bet your bottom dollar that
Tomorrow, there'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow

When I'm stuck with a day
That's gray,
And lonely,
I just stick out my chin
And grin and say...
Oh...
The sun'll come out tomorrow
So you gotta hang on 'til tomorrow

You're only a day...

Scene 11
(Warbucks and Grace having
breakfast. Warbucks reading the paper not paying much attention to Grace)
W: I'll have to close the factory
in Pittsburgh. Miss Farrell.
G: About Annie…
W: What about Annie?
G: Couldn't we keep her? You
haven't seen that horrible orphanage. I can't bear to send her back there. I
can't.
W: Get a hold of yourself! What's
come over you?
G: She wouldn't be a bother. I'd
take care of her. You have plenty of room here. The staff adores her. We could
take her on, well as your ward couldn't we?
W: Absolutely not! I'm a business
man. I love money, I love power, I love capitalism. I now and never will love
children!
G: Watching you with her last
night. I though well maybe...
W: Grace…
G: Yes?
W: I've just noticed something.
G: Yes.
W: You're awfully pretty when you
argue with me.
G: Thank you sir but…
W: Oliver…
G: Oliver...Do you really just love
money and power and capitalism? You know they're never going to love you back.
W: You're teeth are crooked.
G: I'll have them fixed.
W: I like them crooked.
G: I'll leave them.
W: Thank you.
G: I could have the papers signed this morning.
W: It means a great deal to you doesn't it?
G: Yes. It means a great deal to me.
W: I’ll do it myself.
G: I could just kiss you.
W: Grace!
G: Yes?
W: Get her a gift.
G: That's a great idea.
W: Something from Tiffany's. A new locket.
G: Oh and you be careful when you go to that
orphanage. That woman has claws and fangs.
(Warbucks laughs)
(Song: We got Annie)
Grace: We got Annie.
Gardener: We've got Annie?
Grace: Yeah!
She's like the shine on your shoes,
Or hearing a blues that's great.
Makes you relax,
Like a big tax rebate!
We got Annie!
Servants: We got Annie! We got Annie? We got Annie!

W: I want to adopt her.
H: would you excuse me for a moment (goes into
room and screams) (Returns)
H: Won’t you come in? Welcome to
our happy home.

orphans Warbucks hands her papers)
H: You know something? For a Republican you
are sinfully handsome.

Scene 13
W: Annie I want to talk to you about something
serious
A: You don't want me anymore right?
W: On the contrary I do. Good lord.
Annie can we have a man to woman talk?
A: Sure.
W: What I'm proposing would involve a long
term...well agreement. Actually maybe you want to know more about me before you
make up your mind
A: Ok
W: Let's go for a walk.
A: Ok.
W: I was born in Liverpool in a rail road
switch house. My younger brother died of Pneumonia because we didn't have money
for medicine. Well I decided then and there that one day I would be rich. Very,
very rich.
A: Good idea. (Warbucks is pacing up and down
and Annie is copying him)
W: In those days America was the land of
opportunity. I worked on a ship as cabin boy when I was 12. By the time I was
21 I made my first million and in the next 10 years I turned that into 100
millionaire.
A: Wow.
W: That was a lot of money in those days. I
was ruthless, hurt a lot of people. Making money was all I ever gave a damn
about until now. It occurred to me no matter how many houses I have, how many
Rembrandt unless I have someone to share them with I might as well be broke and
still living in Liverpool. Annie do you understand what I'm trying to say?
A: Sure...kinda...not really.
W: Damn.
(Hands her the present of a locket)
A: You've given me so much already Mr.
Warbucks.
W: I signed the papers today. It's official.
A: What is? It's so pretty but...
W: Let me put it on you.
A: It’s a really swell locket Mr. Warbucks,
but if it's all the same to you I’ll keep my old one.
W: It isn't all the same to me. Your old one's
broken. This one's engraved. You didn't even look at it. “To Annie with love
from Daddy Warbucks.”
A: Mr. Warbucks, when my folks left
me at the orphanage 10 years ago they left a note saying they’d come back for
me as soon as they could and they kept the other half of this locket so I'd
know it was them when they came. I'm gonna find them someday, Mr. Warbucks. I'm
gonna have a regular mother and father like a regular kid. I am! I don’t mean
to hurt your feelings. You've been nicer to me than anyone in the whole wide
world but I've been dreaming of my folks for as long as I can remember. And I
just gotta find them.
W: Then I'll help you. Grace, get
me J Edgar on the phone right now. Grace, get me the chief of police. Drake,
get me Walter Winthrop. Ponjab, get me William Randolph Hurst and San Jay, get
me a drink!
Scene 14
(Orphans are listening to the radio)
W: This is Oliver Warbucks and I'm

York City. Drop Page. Johnson's minty fresh toothpaste will have you smiling
from ear to ear with minty goodness all day. Did I just read a commercial?

And not from head to toe

So, Senator,

Yes, this your old softie, Mrs. Healy's
Boy Bert, saying until next time, bon soir, buenos noches, guten
Nacht, bueno sera, and gosh, I almost forgot, goodnight.
All:

Tessie
spoken:
So, for all of the "Hours of Smiles" Family, this is Bert Healy saying...
(Singing)
Hey hobo man,
Hey Dapper Dan,
You've both got your style
All orphans
But brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile
Your clothes may be Beau Brummelly
They stand out a mile
But brother you're never fully dressed
Without a smile
JULY
Who cares what they're wearing on Main Street
Or Saville Row
It's what you wear from ear to ear
And not from head to toe.
KATE
That matters
All orphans
So, Senator, so, janitor
So long for a while
Remember you're never fully dressed
Though you may wear the best
You're never fully dressed without a
Smile
Smile
Smile!
Smile darn ya, smile.

Scene 15
(Hundreds of couples are crowded
outside the Warbucks’ mansion)
Couples Oh Annie darling yoo hoo!
Grace: It’s amazing how many dishonest people
there are in New York.
(Annie walking in)
A: Have you found my parents yet?
Grace: No Annie. I'm sorry.
A: I guess they're dead. I think deep down
I've always known that. I guess I just wanted to believe that I wasn't just any
old orphan. I wanted to believe that I was special.
W: You are special. Don’t you
forget that!
Scene 16
(Rooster and Lily on the doorstep
of orphanage. Rings doorbell)
H: Yeah.
R: Are you the lady who runs this establishment?
H: Unfortunately.
L: 10 years ago we left our little baby girl
on the front step.
R: We were starving. There was a job managing
a motel but only if we had no children.
H: Rap it up, I'm listening to the radio.
L: We never meant to leave our little Annie.
H: Annie?
R: Now we have a hardware store in
New Jersey we can take care of her.
L: We've always loved her.
H: You're Annie's parents?
L: Our house isn't fancy but it's
home. We live over the store.
R: There's a yard out back.
L: We have chickens.
R: And a rooster.
(They take off disguises)
H: Rooster! My God I would never
have recognized you. Come on.
(Looking around to make sure no one is
watching)
R: If we can fool you, we can fool Mr. Money Bags.
L: 50,000 smakos.
H: You'll be the death of me, Rooster.
R: Come on sis.
H: What's in it for me?
R: A split of the money. A 3 way
split
H: I want half.
L: Half!
H: Half!
R: Alright 25 for you and 25 for me
and Lilly.
L: Rooster! Wait and see what she's got first
to see if it’s worth 25,000.
H: What do you want?
L: We need specifics on Annie.
Details.
H: You want details I'll give you details!
I've got specifics on every kid in this dump. It’s just a question of finding
the right box.
(Looking through boxes.)
H: Annie wears a locket round her neck. She
says her parents have the other half to one day come and claim her with. Years
ago her parents were killed in a fire and the cops brought me all their junk.
Well baby brother if Annie's parents can claim her with that locket so can we!
(Orphans overhearing)
L: 50,000 big ones!
R: And the kid, we'll drop in the
river.
Molly: They're gonna do something bad to Annie!
Pepper!
Pepper: (reading magazine) HAVE YOU
CLEANED THE CAN?
MOLLY: LISTEN TO ME! I MEAN IT!
Molly: Listen you guys, we gotta do
something.
Pepper: You want a knuckle sandwich?
Molly: We gotta warn Annie!
Pepper: Scrub!
H: It's in a sealed envelope. (to Lilly about
boxes) Make yourself useful.
(They find the locket)
(Song: Easy Street)
Rooster:
I remember the way
Our sainted mother
Would sit and croon us
Her lullaby
Miss Hannigan:
She'd say, kids, there's a place
That's like no other
You got to get there before you die
Rooster:
You don't get there
By playing from the rule book
Hannigan:
You stack the aces
Rooster:
You load the dice

Scene 17
(Rooster and Lilly disguised as
Annie's parents talking to Warbucks)
R: We were starving, we needed the job, that's
why we left our baby girl.
L: We left her on the doorstep of the Hudson
St Orphanage.
(Annie comes in)
L: Oh Annie! (rushes to hug her) Look Ralph,
she still has the locket.
(She puts the other half of the
locket on)
.L: We've finally found you
W: I suppose you heard about the
reward?
R: Reward? What reward?
W: On the radio.
L: We don't have a radio.
Grace: How did you know Annie was
here?
R: That kind lady at the orphanage
told us.
L: I have the birth certificate
right here (handing it over) I've kept it close to my heart all these years.
A: I'll go pack.
L: You want me to help you, baby?
A: NO thanks...Mum.
(Warbucks writes a check)
R: Sir we're just so thrilled to have Annie
back. We don't need the money
L: (snatching check) We are poor.
We could use it to buy food. A warm blanket for Annie.
W: Put it in your pocket, Mrs. Mudge.
(Annie packs with Grace)
A: Do you think the stores would take all
these clothes back?
G: But don't you want to keep them?
A: My folks, they're poor. All
these clothes might make them feel bad. Could you maybe take them to the
orphanage and give them to my friends?
G: Sure.
(Annie
sings Maybe) “Bet you my life is
gonna be swell. Just looking at them it's easy to tell.
Warbucks seeing her leave sings “It
will be fine”
Annie
Betcha my life is gonna be swell.
Looking at them it's easy to tell.
And maybe I'll forget how nice he was to me,
And how I was almost his baby...
Warbucks
It'll be fine, nothing to fear.
She'll be as happy as she was here.
Things have worked out much better than planned.
It makes you smile to see fate take a hand.
And I know I'll forget how much she meant to me
And how she was almost my baby...
Maybe...
Betcha my life is gonna be swell.
Looking at them it's easy to tell.
And maybe I'll forget how nice he was to me,
And how I was almost his baby...
Warbucks
It'll be fine, nothing to fear.
She'll be as happy as she was here.
Things have worked out much better than planned.

And I know I'll forget how much she meant to me
And how she was almost my baby...

Highness.

You always "Bu-Bu-Boo?"
Warbucks
Bu-Bu-Bu Ba-Ba-Ba

I don't need anything...
But you!
