Lyrics: Nathan Tysen

[TOM] I suppose the latest thing
The latest thrill
Is to watch Mr.Nobody from "Nowhere-Ville"
Make love with your wife and just sit still
If that's the plan
You can count me out
That's the kind of progress
I can do without
[Daisy] Tom ,enough
[Gatsby] Oh
Don't you know the latest thing
The beans to spill
[Daisy] Jay
[Gatsby] Is your wife never loved you
And she never will
So donāt you die upon that hill
We met and fall in love five years ago
It makes me laugh to think you didnāt know
[Tom] I didnāt know Daisy then and Iāll be damned if you got within a mile of her unless you bought groceries to the back door
[Gatsby] Youāre the one who double-crossed her
[Tom] All this from a cheap imposter
[Gatsby] Sorry but I fear youāve lost her
[Tom] Heās slick and heās fast and heāll run out of the gas
None of this was made to last
A quick little fling that will quietly past
None of this was made to last
[Jordan] Youāre one to talk about flings
Nick,did Tom ever tell you why he really left Chicago ?
He ripped the fender off his car
And the chambermaid with him broke her arm !
[Tom] Stay out of it !
[Jordan] Even for you
That was a scandal for ages
And how much did you pay
To stay off the social pages
[Tom] Every so often I might go off on a spree
[Daisy] A spree ?
[Tom] I make a fool of myself
[Daisy] No,Tom!
You make a fool of me
[Jordan] You leave a trail of lies that never ends ([Tom] I said stay out of it!)
[Nick] We all know , so why pretend?
[Tom] And here I thought that we were friends
I see now this is a conspiracy
[Jordan] Oh go chase yourself !
[Gatsby] Old sport itās time to face reality
Daisy is leaving you ([Tom] Is that your estimation?)
She doesnāt love you ([Tom] I love how all your money reeks of desperation)
Go on and tell him ([Tom] Youāve piles of cash to buy some cheap panache and charm )
That you are through ([Tom] But who bought Daisyās diamond ring and put a baby in her arms?)
[Tom] Does Daisy know the kind of work you do ?
That shankās been saving his beat self for you
This dirty crook has craved out quite a niche
Heās selling bootleg booze and getting filthy rich
[Gatsby] Heās lying!
Daisy tell him !ļ¼[Tom] Heās slick and heās fast and heāll run out of the gasļ¼
[Tom] None of this was made to last([Gatsby] She decides what made to last )
A parlor trick a make-believe past
None of this was made to last ([Jordan] She decides what made to last)
[Gatsby] Daisy tell him ([Tom] Heās slick and heās fast and heāll run out of the gas)
[Gatsby] Sheād never love you ([Tom] A parlor trick a make-believe past)
[Jordan] She decides what made to last
[Gatsby] Tell him
Tell him
Tell him
Tell him !
