Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Somewhere else!
Not here
(::The HOMELESS MAN exits. ANGEL gets a good beat going on the tub,::)
(::but is interrupted by a moan. He starts to drum again and sees::)
(::COLLINS limp to downstage-left proscenium.::)
(::ANGEL::)
You okay honey?
(::COLLINS::)
I'm afraid so
(::ANGEL::)
They get any money?
(::COLLINS::)
No
Had none to get --
But they purloined my coat --
Well you missed a sleeve! -- Thanks
(::ANGEL::)
Hell, it's Christmas Eve
I'm Angel
(::COLLINS::)
Angel..? Indeed
An angel of the first degree
Friends call me Collins -- Tom Collins
Nice tree ...
(::ANGEL::)
Let's get a band-aid for your knee
I'll change, there's a "Life Support" meeting at nine-thirty
Yes -- this body provides a comfortable home
For the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome
(::COLLINS::)
As does mine
(::ANGEL::)
We'll get along fine
Get you a coat, have a bite
Make a night -- I'm flush
(::COLLINS::)
My friends are waiting --
(::ANGEL::)
You're cute when you blush
The more the merri -- ho ho ho
And I do not take no
