Original Broadway Cast of Tootsie, Santino Fontana, Andy Grotelueschen - Jeff Sums It Up lyrics

Not long ago, there was a man
An angry guy, awkwardly aging
Committed but kinda self-destructive
Whining his way through life 'till ambition

And circumstance
Conspired to deliver an opportunity
No one except a megalomaniacal actor
With nothing to really lose would consider
So then, of course, this guy puts
Oh, yeah, this guy is you
In case you were wondering
Puts on a dress, a wig
Heels and actually gets the part
And surprisingly, everything goes very well
But then, and how do I say it
You fucked it up you really fucked it up
You got applause, you got the fame
Except it wasn't exactly for you
And now you're in love with a girl
Who thinks you're somebody that you're not
And in case you forgot
I'll tell you who you really are
You're the guy who fucked it up
You really fucked it up

Listen, Mike, I know when Mr opportunity
Comes tip-toeing and teasing
You're the kind of man who
Grabs him by the balls
But then when he screams and says:
"Let go of my balls!"
You just keep on squeezing
Well, that's the time you gotta

I lost my train of thought
Hmm but anyway, you get the point
You screwed the pooch! Epic Fail!
I hate to say I'm happy to say i told you so
But it makes me so happy i told you so!
I told you so! I told you so!
You fucked it up you really fucked it up

You went tit's-up

I went tit's-up

Mistakes were made

Mistakes were made

You bit the dirt

I bit the dirt

Insane in the membrane

Good song

A major malfunction

I really blew it

The captain of the Hindenburg

Oh the humanity

You messed it up

I did

The wheels came off your bumper car
(The wheels came off my bumper car)

You fell on your face (Complete disaster)
You’re dead in the water you fucked it up
(Everything looks pretty bad)
You – ball change you fucked it up
You’re dead in the water you fucked it up
And fan kick!
And buffalo! Buffalo! Gotta shuffle
Off to Buffalo! (Jeff! Jeff)

Jeff! Shh!

Hello? Hi! Oh! Oh, yes, great! Thank you!

Jeff! The cast are going over to
Hear Julie sing and they
Invited Dorothy now Julie has been
Avoiding me since I kissed
Her but she also confides in Dorothy
What she wants from a
Guy right? So if I can meet Julie as Michael
I can use those things to get her to fall for
Me and then fix things
Between her and Dorothy

Good luck to you! God bless you Mike
I really, really wish you the best
I'll tell you what, I'm coming along
For moral support because I'm a friend
But mostly because I'm curious
To see exactly how you'll fuck it up
