Comments:
This is Edward's first song of the show. Vivian exits the stage with his car keys, and a flummoxed Edward sings, "What the hell just happened? ...", which always gets a laugh from the audience. This is also where the Happy Man morphs into Mr. Thompson, the manager of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
Lyrics:

Edward:
WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?
SHE TOOK ME FOR A RIDE
SHE BEAT ME AT MY OWN GAME
SHE CUT ME DOWN TO SIZE

SO NOW WE’VE GOT AN HOUR
I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO
I HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE

THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT HER
SHE'S CHARMING, THERE'S NO DOUBT
THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT HER
I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS
BUT I GUESS THAT I'LL FIND OUT

Happy Man (spoken):
Maps to the stars! You can’t get to where you
want to be without a map! It’s all written in the stars!

Happy Man (sung):
SO COME ALONG, I'LL MEET YOU THERE
I CAN TAKE YOU ANYWHERE
‘CAUSE ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE

Mr. Thompson (spoken):
Welcome to the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
