Scene 6: "Born on a Leap Year"

from How to Hire by Satomage

/

lyrics

EUGENE
They are completely unpredictable and there's nothing you can do to figure them out.

APPLICANT TWO
I was born on a leap year. I just had to work hard had to keep up with all the people that were ahead of me from the very start. Always have this disposition. I get one step ahead but I don't go far. I stay close to where my comfort can be easily contained. Give me something to believe in. I want some one to believe in me like I believe in you. I was brought up facing backwards. I spent all of my time trying to look right at the faces that I took for judgment really were concern. Give me, something to believe in. I want someone to believe in me like I believe in you.

APPLICANT ONE
The angels take their share from every bit of burden. The angels...

APPLICANT TWO
But the load never lightens. We carry more everyday.

EUGENE
It is we who must change with the times.

APPLICANT ONE
I started life a little early. I was waiting too long for some one to come around to show me what I'm supposed to do now that I can walk. On my own I can't decide where, where I wanted my legs to lead where I'm meant to go. I've only now begun to realize my feet choose their own path. Give me something to believe in. I want some one to believe in me like I believe...
