What's Going On, Joe?

What's going on, Joe? Why am I so scared? What was that woman saying? She sounded so weird I don't understand Please, can you tell me, what's happening? You said you loved me tonight Shall I just go? Say something, Joe Have some pink champagne and cavier When you go visit with a star The hospitality is stellar So this is where you're living? Yes, it's quite the place, sleeps seventeen Eight sunken tubs, a movie screen A bowling alley in the cellar I didn't come to see a house, Joe[JOE] Sunset Boulevard, cruise the boulevard Win yourself some Hollywood palazzo Sunset Boulevard, mythic boulevard Valentino danced on that terazzo Who's it belong to? Just look around you That's Norma Desmond Right on the money That's Norma Desmond That's Norma Desmond That's Norma Desmond That's Norma Desmond Why did she call me? Give you three guesses It's the oldest story in the book Come see the taker being took The world is full of Joe's and Norma's Older woman, very well to do Meets younger man, the standard cue For two mechanical performers[BETTY, spoken] Just pack your things and let's go You mean all my things? Have you gone mad? Leave all these things I never had? Leave this luxurious existence? You want me to face that one room hell That murphy bed, that rancid smell Go back to living on subsistence It's no time to begin a new life Now I finally made the perfect landing I'm afraid there's no room for a wife Not unless she's uniquely understanding You should go back to Artie and marry the fool And you'll always be welcome to swim in my pool I can't look at you anymore, Joe Thank you, thank you, Joe Thank you What are you doing, Joe? You're not leaving me[Joe, spoken] Yes Yes I am, Norma You can't Max, Max?
