[Part 1 - Hotel & Backstory.

Hotel: In which Johnny tries to betray Angela, whose suspicions are raised when Jenny calls.

Backstory: In which we learn about Julia’s involvement in the affair.]

So Jennifer sits in her room
Her birthdays money spent on French perfume
Not knowing that the number on her suite door had slipped
Where it read nine it should’ve read six
So Johnny goes marching home alone
Wages blown on cologne

And Angela answers
No John is working late, my husband isn’t home
Knowing that this wasn’t a cold call like it claimed
A nervous girl’s voice more pitied than blamed
Will Johnny be good tonight?
He could and he should

And Jonathan sees he’s on trial
Evidence presented but in denial
Not knowing that his sentence would be Angela’s wrath
And Jenny’s necklace bought with holiday cash
So Johnny just sits and smiles for a while

And she remembers the aisle

Jennifer told Julia that John was handsome
Made her cross her heart to keep a secret
Julia was never gonna keep it
Notes were passed behind her back and someone one soon told John
Jennifer was blushing like the bride she wasn’t
John had engineered a random meeting
Thought that he could hear how hard her heart was beting
Heaving breathing caught her eye

No-one needs to know
Hotel, Motel anywhere they’re gonna go
Has to be discrete if they’re gonna meet

But what of Angela
Is she the girl that he loves?

[Part 2 - Courtroom and Sentencing.

Courtroom: In which Angela cross examines the accused and his accomplice.

Sentencing: In which Judgement is passed.]

Call the first witness
Make you take the stand
Raise up your right hand
Swear to tell the…
Truthlessness
In love as much as war
What is justice for?
You make the laws you break
Promises

Call the next witness
Bring her to the stand
Indicate the man and can point the finger
Statement
Mistress kiss and tell
And tell the rest as well
And take your take to break

Do you feel guilty
Standing there accused
What sentence is there save to execute
But before we do
Is there anything to say in your defense?

The prosecution rests it’s case.

[Part 3 - Appeal and Backstory (reprise)

Appeal: In which Johnny puts his side of the story.

Backstory (reprise): In which Julia re-appears and more evidence is revealed.]

Yours is
The body in the bath
That keeps me overflowing

Yours is
The face I want to break
Into a laugh
So I keep on going
And I keep on growing
And I’m only showing…
Angels who look down on this town should realise

You’ve earned your wings Angela - you made me fly
Seen better things, but Angela why would I want to sacrifice
All we have

Yours is
The name I want to steal
To write these songs about you

Yours is
The warmth I want to feel
And to never doubt you
Cos I don’t know how to
Want to shout about you

Angels who look down on this town must realise
You’ve earned your wings Angela - you made me fly
Seen better things, but Angela why would I want to sacrifice
All we have
Or all we had

Jennifer told Julia that John was handsome
Made her cross her heart to keep a secret
Julia was never gonna keep it
Angela saw Julia and John discussing
Jennifer told Julia that John would meet in secret
In her suite tomorrow evening
Johnny never made the secret meeting
Jennifer believes that John’s gone shy
