They enter the party with the New York crowd...

Terry:
Thanks for attending our party
We'll cheer as the New Year begins
Let's hear one now, make it hearty
Here they are
The Hilton twins

Daisy & Violet:
We have had an amazing year
We're so glad our new friends are here

Daisy:
You could be in Rome

Violet:
Madrid or St. Tropez

Daisy & Violet:
We're pleased you've joined us
For New Year's Day

Party Guest:
Which Siamese twin is which?

Daisy:
I'm Daisy

Violet:
I'm Violet

Daisy & Violet:
We're not Siamese

Party Guest:
Then what are you?

Daisy & Violet:
Twins
Who are conjoined

Party Guest:
Whatever you are
Don't you want to be normal?

Violet:
Whoever you are
Don't you?

Party Guest:
Don't you want husbands?

Daisy:
Is that a proposal?

Party Guest:
What if it is?

Daisy:
Sorry, I'm already attached

Party Guest:
Could you have children?

Violet:
Not with you

Party Guest:
But could you?
With your condition

Violet:
The so-called Siamese twins
Chang and Eng had wives
And twenty two kids

Daisy:
But now we're much too busy with our career

Violet:
As we celebrate a brand new year

Daisy:
The party's just begun

Violet:
Enjoy yourselves

Daisy & Violet:
Have fun

The party guests go off to dance...

Buddy:
Violet, what's wrong?
I can tell you're not happy

Violet:
It's New Year's Eve
Doesn't everyone get blue?

Buddy:
Not me
I'm with my favorite girl

Violet:
You mean business associate

Buddy:
Violet!

Violet:
That's what you tell reporters

Buddy:
Those idiots
They don't deserve the truth

Violet:
What is the truth?

Buddy:
Our friendship goes deeper
Than working together

Violet:
Deeper?

Buddy:
A bottomless well of love

Violet:
Love?

Buddy:
What else could it be?
Have you ever felt this way
With anyone before?

Violet:
I haven't
Have you?

Buddy:
You're the family I've never had
The friend I've always wanted

Violet:
I'm glad

Buddy:
Good. Could I see a smile please?

Violet:
I guess so.

Buddy:
What do I have to do?
Get down on my kness for you
I'm getting down on my kness
Begging you to smile

Violet:
You're embarrassing me.


Buddy:
I'm making you laugh a little.

Terry:
Buddy, what's going on over there?
You look like you're proposing.

Violet:
He's not. He's making fun of me.

Buddy:
I am not! Violet refuses to believe I love her.

Daisy:
You do?

Buddy:
Of course.

Terry:
Well, then you are proposing.

Violet:
He's not.

Buddy:
Would that make you happy?

Daisy:
Couldn't hurt!

Violet:
Daisy!

Terry:
What a story that would make.

Daisy:
Hey, can I be the made of honor?

Violet:
Stop it! All of you!
Stop making fun of me.

Buddy:
Oh, please don't cry!
That's the last thing I want.

Violet:
I'm sorry. I can't joke about this.

Buddy:
This isn't a joke.
Violet, I love you
I don't know how else to say it
I want you to be my wife
I dream of you sharing my life
Violet Hilton, you make me so happy.
Allow me to do the same.
Marry me?

Daisy:
If you don't say yes,
I'm going to have a heart attack that will kill us both!

Buddy:
What are you waiting for
What's so hard?

Violet:
I'm caught by surprise
Caught off-guard
Never trusted good times or success
Now I'm trusting my heart
I'm saying yes, Buddy
I'll marry you

Buddy:
We've got heavenly nights to share

Violet:
Heavenly nights to share

Buddy:
Shooting stars to outshine

Violet:
Shooting stars

Buddy & Violet:
And our shot at the moon
Can't miss or ricochet

Terry:
Let's make it public
For New Year's Day

Buddy:
What about a big double wedding?

Violet:
Oh, what a splendid display

Daisy:
Could it be that's where we're heading?

Terry:
Time to welcome New Year's Day

Buddy, Daisy, Terry, Violet:
We've got rosy red days ahead
Under dreamy blue cloudless sky
We've got years of bliss
To kiss away each day
Here's to the good times
We're on our way

Terry:
Love is the lead-in
For New Year's Day
Ladies and gents, the hour is upon us
And I have big news
With which the celebrate the New Year.
The lovely Violet Hilton
Has accepted a marriage proposal
From Mr. Buddy Foster!

Company:
We've got rosy red days ahead
Under dreamy blue cloudless sky
As the old year wanes
Love will lead the way
Here's to a new love
May it be true love
One-made-from-two love
For New Year's Day
For New Year's Day
For New Year's Day

Daisy:
Happy New Year.

Violet:
Happy New Year.
Jake, I'm finally getting married!

Jake:
Buddy's a lucky guy.

Terry:
Our guests are leaving.
You girls go make your goodbyes.

Daisy, Violet and Jake leave...

Buddy:
What do you mean?

Terry:
Getting Violet to marry you.
That is the story of the year, the decade!

Buddy:
That's not why I did it!

Terry:
Of course not.

Buddy:
I can't stand to see her unhappy
And now she won't be.

Terry:
Everyone benefits.

Buddy:
Hey, why don't you marry Daisy,
Since there's such an obvious connection between you two.

Terry:
What do you mean obvious connection?
Maybe to her way of thinking.

Buddy:
Only hers?

Terry:
Go on, I gotta get some air.

Buddy leaves Terry alone...
