Come Out Of The Dumpster Lyrics & Chords By Laura Benanti

JULIA
So tonight you made some mistakes
I admit it, you hit a few bumps
But I hate to see you like this
Down on your luck, down in the dumps
Though hope may seem in short supply
You have to move on
You have to try
So come out of the dumpster
Don't leave me standing here
Come out of the dumpster
Its ok; the coast is clear
The cop cars are leaving
Channel 5 packed up its crew
So come out of the dumpster
I'll be right here waiting for you
ROBBIE (spoken)
Ok. I'll try
(robbie trys to climb out of the dumpster, but falls back in)
JULIA (sung)
So you're back in the dumpster
Well, that's like a metaphor
Everyone has a dumpster
A stumbling block they can't ignore
But to fight it makes you stronger
And next time you might stand!
So come out of that dumpster
Here, take a hold of my hand
So your first day back wasn't all you anticipated
ROBBIE (sung)
I bit the best man
The bride had to be sedated
JULIA
This sort of thing happens all the time
When life gives you garbage
You use it to climb!
Look!
You're out of the dumpster
Was that so hard after all?
It was only a dumpster
ROBBIE
And from here, it looks so small
JULIA
You're back where you started
On you're way to success
So...
Will you sing at my wedding?
ROBBIE
No!
