And now we're all here, we've moved to New York We've found a nice little rental near a sweet little school Now I'm looking at houses with four or five floors And you've found us a brownstone Said “You want it? It's yours”
So we went ahead and we bought it Found ourselves a good mortgage Billy Cotton got sorted All the furniture ordered I could never afford this You were pushing it forward Made me feel a bit awkward Made me feel a bit awkward
I walk up the stoop, I put the key in thе door And then my phone started ringing so I answеred the call And they were like "Hey, you've got a lead in a play" You've gotta be back in London for rehearsals in May" And then later that evening you said how was my day I said “I got some good news, I got the lead in a play” That's when your demeanour started to change You said that I'd have to audition, I said “You're deranged”
And I thought I thought that that was quite strange (I found that strange) And I thought I thought that that was quite strange (So very strange)
But I ignored it Went ahead and I bought it Got a flight and I boarded I'm on my way
Now I'm in London, I'm on my own And I'm in a hotel room, I'm on my own Now I'm in London and I'm all alone I'm in a hotel room, I'm all on my own Now I'm a West End Girl Now I'm a West End Girl Now I'm a West End Girl A West End Girl
