Gimme! Gimme! Lyrics

    GIRLS
    Is there a man out there?
    Someone to hear my prayer

    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
    A man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

    SOPHIE
    Sorry to drag you away

    SAM
    Thank God you did, this used to be
    a quiet wee island.

    SOPHIE
    Regretting you stayed away so long?

    SAM
    No, I'm regretting I never knew
    what was here.

    SOPHIE
    What?

    SAM
    This plave - the Taverna. I always
    meant to come back and build it
    some day, but - she beat me to it.

    SOPHIE
    Do you prefer buildings to people?

    SAM
    What!

    SOPHIE
    Tell me something about my mum.

    SAM
    Your mum was irresistible, a one-off.
    We talked and we fought - you
    know it was me that brought her to
    this island?

    SOPHIE
    That wasn't the only thing you did, was it?

    SAM
    Oh right, what has she told you?

    SOPHIE
    Nothing. She's never mentioned
    you.

    SAM
    But you said "Mum's always talking
    about her friends from the old
    days." What's going on? Sophie,
    why am I here?

    GIRLS
    Is there a man out there
    Someone to hear my prayer

    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
    A man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
    A man after midnight

    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

    HARRY
    Fancy Donna with a grown-up
    daughter!

    SOPHIE
    Have you got any children, Harry?

    HARRY
    No. I haven't put myself in the path
    of paternity.

    SOPHIE
    It's never too late.

    HARRY
    I don't think my other half would
    agree.

    SOPHIE
    Oh - you don't want children?

    HARRY
    No, no, it's not like that. It's just that:
    : well, I'd have liked a daughter. I'd
    have spoiled her to bits.

    SOPHIE
    Lucky thing.

    HARRY
    Is your Dad here?

    SOPHIE
    I don't know.

    HARRY
    What?

    SOPHIE
    I don't know who my Dad is.

    GIRLS
    Is there a man out there?
    Someone to hear my prayer:

    BILL
    Can I be nosey, I'm a writer so it
    goes with the territory.

    SOPHIE
    Go on.

    BILL
    How did your mother get this place?
    When I knew her
    she was singing in a night-club on
    the mainland.

    SOPHIE
    She was left some money, in a will.
    We lived with an old lady when I
    was little. Her name was Sophia?

    BILL
    What, my Great-Aunt Sophia?

    SOPHIE
    I think it must be.

    BILL
    But I always heard her money
    went to: family:
    Wait a minute - how old are you?

    SOPHIE
    Twenty

    GIRLS
    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
    A man after midnight
    Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
    A man after midnight
    Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
