The Most Beautiful Thing in the World

MR. PRICE

You might think beauty comes in spring and sparrow

Or when the sunrise hits the morning dew

But if you walk the straight and narrow

You'll find the elegance and comfort is a—

Do you know what the most beautiful thing in the world is, Charlie?

YOUNG CHARLIE

A shoe.

Four generations have paved the way before you

You'll be next in line when my time is through

And there's a saying handed down I've found of value

That you can tell about the fella from his

YOUNG SIMON

Feels like I'm dancing across the high wire

Or bravely soaring off into the blue

Just like a rocket looks with sparks and fire

Feels like the magic never ends inside these—

SIMON’S FATHER

Take those things off your feet and get inside here, you stupid boy!

NICOLA

Charlie, here are the shoes I told you about! Come have a look-see!

Aren’t they the most necessary things ever?

If you want to slip a ring on my finger, you’ll first slip these shoes on my feet

CHARLIE

It’s a tad posh for life in North Hampton, wouldn’t you say?

NICOLA

Then good thing we’re moving to London!

And won’t they make a fittin' farewell to the stink of cattle farms and tanning leather?

Oh, we may have been born in a small factory town

But we sure as hell don’t have to die there!

CHARLIE

You see the price? There’s three month’s rent!

NICOLA

Pinch 'em or pay for 'em, that is up to you, but these shoes are in my future!

To new beginnings

Hello to sunny days

We're upward mobile now

Goodbye to small town ways

'Til it's impossible to find

A trace of what we left behind

And our defining element is in these

Shoes!

MR. PRICE

Your life, your future, is right here at this factory! You belong here!

CHARLIE

No dad, I belong with Nicola in London

MR. PRICE

No, you belong here

CHARLIE

Will you toast my journey?

MR. PRICE

But to leave your family and home for a job shopping in London!

CHARLIE

Marketing, Dad

Richard Bailey has offered Nicola and me positions marketing real estate

MR. PRICE

You’re breaking my heart, Charlie

CHARLIE

To you, Dad

MR. PRICE

Shoes can protect a man’s journey, but only his heart can choose the path

And so a toast to our own Charlie

May you never fail to point your shoes back home
