Video clip

Mark
Pan to the padlocked door. new year's rocking eve. the
Breaking-back-into-the-building party...
Mimi
How long til next year?

Roger
Three and half minutes...

Mimi
I'm giving up my vices
I'm going back - back to school
Eviction or not
This week's been so hot
As long as i've got you
I know i'll be cool

I couldn't crack the love code, dear
'til you made the lock on my heart
Explode
It's gonna be a happy new year
A happy new year

Mark
Coast is clear
You're supposed to be working
That's for midnight
Where are they?
There isn't much time

Mimi
Maybe they're dressing
I mean what does one wear that's
Propos
For a party - that's also a crime

Maureen
Chips, anyone?

Mark
You can take the girl out of hicksville
But you can't take the hickville out
Of the girl

Maureen
My riot got you on tv
I deserve a royalty

Mimi
Be nice you two
Or no god awful champagne

Maureen
Don't mind if i do
No luck?

Roger
Bolted plywood, padlocked with a chain
A total dead end

Maureen
Just like my ex-girlfriend

(on cell phone)
Honey...?
I know you're there...
Please pick up the phone
Are you okay?

It's not funny
It's not fair!
How can i atone?
Are you okay?

I lose control
But i can learn to behave
Give me one more chance
Let me be your slave

I'll kiss your doc martens
Let me kiss your doc martens
Your every wish i will obey

(joanne enters)

Joanne
That might be okay
Down girl
Heel...stay!

I did a bit of research
With my friends at legal aid
Technically, you're squatters
There's hope
But just in case

Mark & joanne
Rope!

Mark
We can hoist a line--

Joanne
To the fire escape--

Mark
And tie off at

Mark & joanne
That bench!

Maureen
I can't take them as chums

Joanne
Start hoisting...wench!

Roger
I think i should be laughing
Yet i forget
Forget how to begin

I'm feeling something inside
And yet i still can't decide if i should hide
Or make a wide open grin

Last week i wanted just to disappear
My life was dust
But now it just may be a happy new year
A happy new year

(collins enters with angel)

Collins
Bond - james bond

Angel
And pussy galore - in person

Mimi
Pussy - you came prepared

Angel
I was a boy scout once
And a brownie
'til some brat got scared

Collins
Aha! moneypenny - my martini!

Mimi
Will bad champagne do?

Roger
That's shaken - not stirred

Collins
Pussy - the bolts

Angel
Just say the word!

Mimi
Two minutes left to execute our plan

Collins
Where's everyone else?

Roger
Playing spiderman

Mark
Ironic close up: tight
On the phone machine's red light
Once the boho boys are gone
The power mysteriously comes on
