Mr. Greg
1 - Garnet: # We # - # Are the Crystal # - Steven: # Gems # - # we'll always save the day # Steven: # and if you think we can't # All: # we'll always find a way # - # that's why the people # - # of this world # - Garnet: # believe in # - # Garnet # - # Amethyst # - # and Pearl # Steven: # And Steven! # [Static.]
Marty: # From the moment the meat hits the flame # my stomach is growling without any shame and I know in my gut, it's been worth the 5.
95 would you like a burger from Pepe's Burgers? Steven: Whoa.
Your song is on TV! Yeah.
Apparently, Marty sold my song as a burger jingle, and now I'm filthy-stinking rich.
[Sighs.]
The sweet stench of success.
- What is this? - You know, when Rose came to my concert the night we met, I was playing this song.
This is what did it burgers? It wasn't about burgers back then.
She probably would have liked this, though, right? [Sighs.]
She would have loved it.
[Groans.]
[TV shuts off.]
So, what are you gonna do with all the money? I don't know.
Bright, sunny day [guitar plays.]
don't cost nothin' light, summer breeze don't cost nothin' what do I do with all this money when the only thing I want is you? Pallin' around don't cost nothin' singin' a song don't cost nothin' how do I spend all this money? I'd rather just spend time with you You could buy a house and a car I guess that I can but I've already got a van - # I could put you through college # - But I'm with the Gems all the time.
I could buy you all the finest courses online - # What if we took a trip? # - Hey, you think? Yeah, I do.
# We could take a vacation # We could go somewhere new.
[Up-tempo music plays.]
I know a place that's always exciting the shows and the sights and the lights that are blinding Empire City I'm talkin' Empire City the streets and the sounds and the buildings towerin' subways that runs from Brooklyn to the Bowery Empire City let's go to Empire City - # we don't need money # - # I know a place that's always exciting # - # but could be funny # - # the shows and the sights and the lights so blinding # - # so let's go today # - # the streets and the sounds and the buildings towering # - # just point me the way to # - # subways that run from Brooklyn to the bowery # Both: # Empire City # - And let's bring Pearl.
- What?! I don't know.
Past experiences have taught me that three is a crowd.
Steven, me and Pearl haven't gotten along that well since, uh well, since I started dating your mother.
Aw, come on! We're all a big family.
It'll be great.
Just you, me, Pearl, and don't forget mom.
- Ugh.
- Huh? [Orchestra plays fanfare.]
[Piano playing.]
[Bell dings.]
[Ka-ching!.]
- # Hey, shake a leg! # - # Hey, shake a leg! # - # It's Mr.
Greg! # - # It's Mr.
Greg! # And he's here to spend his dough all over the town! - # He's got the bucks.
# - # I've got the bucks! # - # It's all deluxe.
# - # It's all deluxe! # When you're dining out with me, it's the finest steak and brie.
And if I break a table, it ain't no Whoa! Just bill it to my bank.
A hundred bucks?! Gee, thanks! [Elevator bell dings.]
[Ding!.]
[Laughs.]
[Gasps.]
- # I must admit # - # You must admit.
# - # it's a perfect fit.
# - # You look great in it.
# And those fountains I found wasteful are actually quite tasteful.
This city's got its charm, unlike that termite-ridden barn.
And any time with Steven makes for a delightful evenin'.
- # You're having fun! # - # More or less.
# - # So dance with me.
Just say # - No! I I mean maybe later.
Boo! You ruined the song! Sorry, guys.
Thanks for singing with us.
Don't worry about it, kiddo.
It's always been this way.
[Both snoring.]
[Sighs.]
[Music.]
[Sighs.]
I was fine with the men who would come into her life now and again I was fine 'cause I knew that they didn't really matter, until you I was fine when you came and we fought like it was all some silly game over her, who she'd choose after all those years, I never thought I'd lose it's over, isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it over? It's over, isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it over? You won, and she chose you and she loved you, and she's gone It's over, isn't it? Why can't I move on? War and glory, reinvention fusion, freedom, her attention out in daylight, my potential bold, precise, experimental Who am I now in this world without her? Petty and dull with the nerve to doubt her what does it matter? It's already done now I've got to be there for her son It's over, isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it over? It's over, isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it over? You won, and she chose you and she loved you and she's gone It's over, isn't it? Why can't I move on? It's over, isn't it? Why can't I move on? [Gasps.]
Greg! You were awake.
Nothing's gonna fix this, is it? Greg! I'm sorry you had to be around me.
- Dad! - I shouldn't have come along.
No.
This is exactly why I brought you.
[Music.]
[Groans.]
Cherry man.
[Clears throat.]
[Ragtime music plays.]
[Gasps.]
Ooh! Roo-doo-doo-doo, roo-doo-doo-doo Why don't you talk to each other? Why don't you talk to each other? Just give it a try Why don't you talk about what happened? I know you're trying to avoid it but I don't know why You might not believe it you might not believe it but you've got a lot in common you really do [both sigh.]
You both love me, and I love both of you Greg: Look, if I were you, I'd hate me, too.
Pearl: I don't hate you.
But I knew how you felt about Rose, and I stayed anyway.
- That wasn't the problem.
- Then what was? - She fell in love with you.
- Well, you know Rose.
Both: She always did what she wanted! Steven: # I know you both need it # I know you both need it someone who knows what you're going through and you might not believe it you might not believe it but you've got a lot in common you really do You both love me, and I love both of you you both love me and I love both of you [cheers and applause.]
Man: Hurray! [Both laughing.]
- Ricky: Le bill.
- Ugh! Tailor-made suits those cost somethin' room with a view those cost somethin' - # Dancing with you # - # Don't cost nothin' # Why'd we even come? We could have done this at home.
[Laughing.]
Singin' a song don't cost nothin' Or was it palling around don't cost nothin'? - # Getting it wrong # - # Don't cost nothin' # I tried.
I'm surprised you remembered any of it.
What can I say? It's catchy.
It's over, isn't it? It's over, isn't it? It's over, isn't it? [Pop!.]
# Look at you go # # I just adore you # # I wish that I knew # # what makes you think I'm so special #
Marty: # From the moment the meat hits the flame # my stomach is growling without any shame and I know in my gut, it's been worth the 5.
