View Lyrics
When I was very young, I had a perfect life. My Pa a perfect husband and my Ma a perfect wife. And everyday my life went by so perfectly? I made a perfect plan, I dreamed some perfect dreams. But now I look around, my dreams are splitting at the seams! I made one big decision and now look at me? When I do something wrong I do it perfectly?

My big mistake, Roping you in. I got my wish, Now I can't win. I thought once I caught you you'd quit your roamin' But I'm the one who's caught in a world I'm not at home in!

My big mistake, Thinking you'd change. Fancyin' life Home on the range. 'Cause I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make I love my big mistake!

I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make? I love my big mistake!

Lisa, a homeless woman asks for money.
View Lyrics
Pennies or nickels or dimes. We live in perilous times. I don't ask you to treat me nice I'm not asking for pleasant conversation. I'm not asking for paradise. All I'm asking for is change.

Hate me but don't kick my shins. I'm where your kindness begins. Please, folks, do not spend time with me. I won't ask you to treat me like your mother. I'm not asking for sympathy All I'm asking for is change.

Change the government, Kill the mayor. It's not fair how lives evaporate Change the system That made us what we are I don't ask for hugs. Just need money to by more drugs And if you folks pay, I'll go away.

People walk by me with glee. I am what they'll never be. I don't ask you to tip your hat. I don't ask that you notice what I'm wearing. I could care less for things like that. All I'm asking for is change. Change. Change. Change.

Pennies or nickels or dimes We live in perilous times.

Berthe, Pippin's grandmother, reminds him to worry less and live a little.
View Lyrics
BERTHE When you are as old as I, my dear And I hope that you never are You will woefully wonder why, my dear Through your cataracts and catarrh You could squander away or sequester A drop of a precious year For when your best days are yester The rest'er twice as dear....
What good is a field on a fine summer night If you sit all alone with the weeds? Or a succulent pear if with each juicy bite You spit out your teeth with the seeds? Before it's too late stop trying to wait For fortune and fame you're secure of For there's one thing to be sure of, mate: There's nothing to be sure of!
Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, cause spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
I've never wondered if I was afraid When there was a challenge to take I never thought about how much I weighed When there was still one piece of cake
Maybe it's meant the hours I've spent Feeling broken and bent and unwell But there's still no cure sole heaven-sent As the chance to raise some hell Everybody....
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, cause spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE
Now, Sages tweet that age is sweet Good deeds and good work earns you laurels But what could make you feel more obsolete Than being noted for your morals?
Give me a man who is handsome and strong Someone who's stalwart and steady Give me a night that's romantic and long And give me a month to get ready
Now I could waylay some aging roue And persuade him to play in some cranny But it's hard to believe I'm being led astray By a man who calls me granny
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE So when the drearies do attack And a siege of the sads begins I just throw these regal shoulders back And lift these noble chins
Here is a secret I never have told Maybe you'll understand why I believe if I refuse to grow old I can stay young till I die
Now, I've known the fears of sixty-six years I've had troubles and tears by the score But the only thing I'd trade them for Is sixty-seven more...
ALL Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to take a little from this world we're given Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall In just no time at all....
BERTHE Oh, it's time to start livin' Time to keep takin' from this world we're given You are my time, so I'll throw off my shawl And watching your flings be flung all over Makes me feel young all over
ALL In just no time at all!

The tomboy Molly Tobin proclaims her desire to learn to read, write, and find a rich husband.
View Lyrics
I'm goan' to learn to read and write, I'm goan' to see what there is to see, So if you go from nowhere On the road to somewhere And you meet anyone You know it's me.

You'll see me carried shoulder high, By famous people I've never met, But till I leave the rear, It's from the rear you'll hear, "I ain't down yet." To show that you know, You got to show you know you know!

I'm goan' to move From place to place To find a house With a goldn stair And if that house is red And has a big brass bed I'm liiiivin' there.

You'll see me carried shoulder high, By famous people I've never met, But till I leave the rear, It's from the rear you'll hear, "I ain't down yet."

Dolores Dante is a waitress who boasts the joys of her job.
View Lyrics
There's some as don't care When they put down a plate There's a sound Not with me When they move a chair It'll scrape with a grate On the ground Not with me
I will have my hand right when I place a glass Notice how I stand right as customers pass Serve a demi-tass with a gesture so gentile Or do it again 'til It's near oriental
Da da da da dum dum
It's an art it's an art To be a fine waitress To see that you pleasure each guest There's a twist to my wrist If I let a fork drop Or cut up a porkchop Or serve a New York chop It all needs be stylish and smart That's what makes it an art
I remember one day As I do now and then I had shakes And down I went There with my tray Full of seven prime tenderloin steaks And down I went
But I kept my poise - not one guest heard me fall Never made a noise - not one noise food and all If you have to crawl you give 'em what they like You carry your tray like It's almost ballet-like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
It's an art, it's an art To be a fine waitress Each evening I treasure the test Though my chef may be deaf I stay diplomatic If I give him static He might burn the haddock Or put too much salt in a tart Even that is an art
Tips? HA! Tips are important For people like captains and barmen For them it's a tips, see? For me, I'm a gypsy Just toss me a coin And I suddenly feel like I'm Carmen
So on through the ulcer The backache, the hot, sweaty feet On you go Through, "Is your knife dull, sir?" And, "Madam wants what with her meat?" On you go
Two AM approaches, the curtains descend There among the roaches my act's at an end Every night I tend to find myself crying There's no work so trying Or so satisfying
I tell everybody that I'm a waitress and I'm proud. Somebody comes up to me and says, "Hey you're terrific. How come you're just a waitress?" Ya know what I say to them? I say, "Why? Don't you think you deserve to be served by me?"
It's an art
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS It's an art
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS To be a great waitress
GUESTS Please take care of this
WAITRESS To do without leisure or rest
GUESTS Could we have our check please?
WAITRESS So I zoom
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS Through the room
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS With a flair no one else has
GUESTS Bring some more of these
WAITRESS An air no one else has I swear no one else has My lilt
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS When I say
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS "A la carte"
GUESTS And another order to go
WAITRESS You can see it gives me a glow
GUESTS My plate, miss! My cup, miss!
WAITRESS Ev'ry time I prove I'm a pro
GUESTS I'm late, miss! Hurry up, miss!
WAITRESS Maybe I'm not quite
GUESTS Miss!
WAITRESS Michelangelo
GUESTS And a bag for my dog
WAITRESS But I'm not just a waitress
GUESTS You were great
WAITRESS I'm a one
GUESTS But I'm late
WAITRESS Woman
GUESTS My check please My change please
WAITRESS Show
GUESTS C'mon please Lady, let's go

View Lyrics
I know you, your name is Sue But who am I? I've gotta find out At least I'm gonna try

I'm going back Where I can be me At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

They've got a great big switchboard there Where it's just hello, goodbye It may be dull But there I can be just me, myself and I

A little modeling on the side Yes, that's where I'll be At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

And if anybody asks for Ella, Mella or Mom Tell them that I'm goin' back where I came from To the B.T. Bras-se-ière Company

Goodbye everybody Goodbye Madame Grimaldi Goodbye Junior Mallett Santa Claus is a-hittin' the road

Listen to your mama, mama, mama Eat your spinach baby Eat your spinach baby By the load

La petite bergère restaurant adieu Je ne reviendrai jamais, jamais, jamais C'est tout fini Adieu to you

So, goodbye Max, to your dogs and your cats To the Duke of Windsor and His Duchess

Bye bye Barton and Kitchell and Hastings At last you're out of my clutches

I'll miss you but you'll carry on You'll never know that I've gone

I'm a-going back Where I can be me At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company

And while I'm sitting there I'll hope that I find out Just what Ella Peterson is all about In that Shangri-La of lacy lingerie

A little modeling on the side At the Bonjour Tristesse Brassière Company Send me my mail dere! To the Bonjour Tristesse Company

TI MOUNE A stranger in white In a car Going somewhere Going far… How it must feel to go racing Wherever you please Flying as free as a bird With his tail in the breeze Even the fish in the sea Must be longing to fly Catching a glimpse of a stranger In white racing by

Oh, Gods. Oh, Gods Are you there? What can I do to get you to look down And give in? Oh, Gods. Oh, Gods Hear my prayer I’m here in the field With my feet on the ground And my fate in the air Waiting for life to begin

PEASANTS Ooh la ooh la ooh la ooh la Ooh la ooh la ooh la ooh la

TI MOUNE Mama’s contented and Tonton Accepts what he gets

PEASANTS Ooh la ooh la ooh la ooh la

TI MOUNE Happy for tea in their cups And no holes in their nets

PEASANTS Ooh la ooh la ooh la ooh la

TIMOUNE Happy to have what they have And to stay where they are

PEASANTS Ooh la ooh la ooh la ooh la

TI MOUNE They never even look up At the sound of a car!

A stranger! Racing down the beach Racing to places I was meant to reach My stranger One day you’ll arrive The car will stop And in I’ll hop And off we’ll drive…We’ll drive!

Oh, gods Oh, gods Please, be there Don’t you remember Your little Ti Moune from the tree Wake up! Look down! Hear my prayer Don’t single me out And then forget me…

Oh gods, oh gods Let me fly

PEASANTS Oh oh oh

TIMOUNE Send me to places No one before me has been

PEASANTS Ooh la ooh la ooh la

TI MOUNE You spared my life Show me why

PEASANTS Oh oh oh

TI MOUNE You get me to rise Like a fish to the bait And tell me to wait Well, I’m waiting…

PEASANTS Waiting

TI MOUNE Waiting for Life to Begin!

Lily, who is married, flirts with a thief at a nightclub.
View Lyrics
THE WIFE: (sung) Friday night down on Houston, In a spot called Bamboo Jack’s, Everyone was doin’ the mambo And drinkin’ Golden Cadillacs. Sally was there with her Daddy. But Daddy was in a funk ‘Cause Sally met up with and took a shine To a hunk from East Podunk. And Daddy cried, “Hey, Whatcha doin’ watcha doin’? What’s he got I don’t got? All I see’s American cheese. He’ll melt when you get hot.”

And Sally said: “I see what I wanna see. I know what I wanna know. I don’t need you To tell me what’s true If you don’t like it, Daddy, You can blow, blow, blow, blow, blow!”

Saturday night at the same place. They roll up the bamboo rug. Everyone was doin’ the limbo, Except Sally and her Podunk Plug. Seems he took a shine to some chicken Shakin’ her tom-tom-tom. Sally saw that and—guacamole— She exploded like the hydrogen bomb.

She cried, “Hey, hey watcha doin’ watcha doin’? What’s she got that I lack? That chicken is thin And meaner than sin And uglier than Bamboo Jack!”

The Husband/The Band: (sung) And he said!

The Wife: (sung) “I see what I wanna see I know what I wanna know. I don’t need you To tell me what’s true If you don’t like it, baby, You can blow blow blow blow blow blow blow blow!

I see what I wanna see I know what I wanna know I don’t need you To tell me what’s true – If you don’t like it baby baby baby baby ba-ba-baby you can blow!”

Julia, a waitress, sings about how she can't wait to get married.
View Lyrics
(Spoken) JULIA Did you see the bride? She looks so perfect.

HOLLY I know. Don’t you hate her?

JULIA Hate her? She’s so happy!

(Sung) She turns around And she meets his gaze The lights are dim, There’s a smoky haze They share a smile And a secret wave It’s a moment built to save They start to move Across the floor The room is frozen, Wanting more The happy couple on display With nothing standing In their way It’s so romantic I could die Right here and now It’s gonna be that way for us I know somehow Someday when it’s me I’ll know our love Was meant to be Not one single complication Or cause for hesitation Someday when the dream Is coming true All you’ll need is me And all I’ll need is you

(Spoken) HOLLY Julia, take that veil off!

JULIA Okay!

(Sung) They stop and pose For a photograph He jokes around Just to make her laugh The room is full, But they’re all alone They have a language All their own And I’m so jealous I could cry And yet I know It won’t be long Before you say We’re good to go Someday when it’s me I’ll know our love Was meant to be Not one single complication Or cause for hesitation Someday when the dream Is coming true All you’ll need is me And all I’ll need is you I know not every marriage Lasts when things go bad I’ve seen the warning signs I call them “Mom” and “Dad” But soon you’ll take my hand And pledge your love to me Till then I’ll just get married vicariously

JULIA & WOMEN Someday when it’s me I’ll know our love Was meant to be

JULIA Not one single complication Or cause for hesitation Someday when the dream Is coming true

WOMEN Is coming true

JULIA All you’ll need is me

WOMEN All you’ll need is me

JULIA & WOMEN And all I’ll need is you!

This is sung as the actress Marguerite is giving her final performance before marrying Percy.
View Lyrics
Listen to me, I have beautiful dreams I can spin you Dreams to linger within you Close your eyes and we’ll ride my carousel I’ll sing you stories of lovers whose love used to fill me And the lovers who will be For, you see, love is one thing I do well Come, let’s believe love can be just as sweet as it seems Let’s live on dreams!

In my dreams such beautiful lovers have found me Storybook lovers surround me Nothing is real, but I’m flying, sighing Where, where, where is my storybook ending? Why does my golden pretending Leave me with nothing to hold but my dreams? Oh, is it only in dreams that we find our ideal love? Are there lovers with real love? If you know how to feel love, show me now Ah, but my prince, if you can’t be as sweet as you seem I’d rather dream

Come and wake me! Come be the love I can hold now Storybook love leaves me cold now Show me the way to stop dreaming There is only one perfect storybook ending That is the end of pretending That is the moment I say, love me now!

Et sur mon manege, l’amour toujours est chantant De mes reves, c’est le commencement Et j’espere une fin heureuse Mais la fin de l’histoire ne vient pas tres doucement Pour l’histoire, il faut faire semblant Certes je n’embrasse que mes reves Seuls mes reves!

Paula, an ex-dancer whose boyfriend has just left her, refuses to be taken advantage of again.
View Lyrics
PAULA
My built-in female radar only zeroes-in on zeroes I'm like the actors' fund supporting wanna be Deniros

I've been caught in a trap But it's not gonna happen again

No more Racing toward a heartache Seeking disappointment Chasing after dreams I've trusted more than enough to last me till I die Love's as unreliable as it seems

No more Living for another Craving his approval Giving to extremes I'm through collecting broken promises I've heard them all before I know more now

In my experience with men I've spent a lifetime proving You know a man is lying when you see his lips start moving My women's intuition ought to be recalled Or overhauled

Most men have backbones like a strand of overcooked Linguini You say commitment and they instantly become Houdini When I look back upon the men I've loved I'm thoroughly Appalled

I'm gonna build a wall around my heart A towering fortress made of solid rock Electric fences all around my heart The next guy who hits on me Is in for a shock

I know to let go now And so I solemnly promise

No more!

Seeking disappointments Chasing after dreams With just the two of us now We're better off by far You and I are one of the greatest teams

No more Living for a lover Craving his approval Giving to extremes They say that history repeats itself I'll build my past goodbye No more No more I know more now!

VICKI You gotta love that man He's like my personal angel I've always wanted the kind of life That I've been having as Harold's wife What a catch I have caught He would buy me the moon If the moon could be bought I'm telling you - You gotta love that man

JERRY Why can't you just tell her?

HAROLD She adores me. How do you break the heart of someone you love?

VICKI I really love that man He likes me dressed to the nines I saw two words and then ta-da There's me completely in Prada And I've got the boots that go with the belt That goes with the bag That goes with my wonderful life with Harold You gotta love that man

So he tells me you boys are rollers at the mill. That's wonderful. Of course, I don't actually know what rollers do, but hey, I hardly know what Harold does over there. It's all steel to me.

HAROLD Look at her. She's a piece of Dresden china. She'd break into a million pieces!

VICKI God, I love that man But lately he's working too hard I keep on telling him how we Should take a few weeks in Maui And we'll feel the breeze and sample the poi And go see Don Ho and I'll say "Oh boy, how I love you, Harold" I hit the jackpot with Harry

He's a gem - he's a beaut He looks cute in a suit and he loves me to boot I'm telling you You gotta love that man

Love that man I love that man I love that man!

MEN Love that man You gotta love that man You really gotta love That man

Cal, a magician's assistant, realizes that her career and love life are not working out, so she considers reluctantly returning to West End Avenue.
View Lyrics
All of your life you wake up to the taxis and the chimes To the bathroom with the roaches and the breakfast with the Times. And you subway to school with kids whose folks all live in twenty blocks In a high-rise rented carton or a co-op brownstone box, with double locks.

West End Avenue. Babies in carts and poodles barking, West End Avenue. Planning the day around the parking.

You tell yourself, "I will be free." West End Avenue, You won't get me.

All of your life you watch the shrinks and lawyers on parade, Watch the brokers in their worsted and the ad men in their suede. While upstairs a soprano tries to sing the waltz from "La Boheme." And you watch 'em and you listen and you judge and you condemn: You're not like them.

West End Avenue. Delis and laundromats and gay bars, West End Avenue. Only a block away from Zabars.

But you were meant to really fly. West End Avenue, Good bye, good bye.

And then suddenly you're out there on your own. But you forgot that free could also mean alone. And when all that freedom gets too much for you, Ooh, what do you do?

You pack up your boots and blue jeans and your records and your pride, And you tell yourself you ventured and you tell yourself you tried. And it's back to the surly doormen and the canopies you go. And the buses seem to chuckle and the towers seem to crow: "We told you so."

West End Avenue, Find me a golden cage to perch in. West End Avenue, Open your arms to one more urchin Who's crawlin' back to mama's den. West End Avenue, You win again!

The Mad Hatter raves on about how she wants to rule Wonderland.
View Lyrics
Well Hello, there, it's me With how it's gonna be, Settle down and listen up good.

The old Hatter is gone But the Hat must go on Worn by me, is that understood?

So shut up and tow the line, While I redefine How this all will be mine.

I have a dream, It's got a full head of steam!

What is true what is not Can both change in a shot And people, me, I couldn't care less.

'Cause in two seconds flat Livin' under my hat Is the strategy for success.

I will look the other way When you want to play Something more than croquet. You catch my drift? My little personal gift!

I'm the Mad Hatter Come and follow me, this is it. The Mad Hatter, All you gotta do is submit.

And if you don't my friend, Well then in the end, There'll be nothing left to defend. Know what I mean? When you are facing the Queen.

Uppercase, double-spaced Everyone gets a taste, And a brand new leather hat band.

But to participate, Let me reiterate You must first put me in command.

I'm the wonder, understand, Under Wonderland, Put the reigns in my hand. I'll do the rest, As soon as you've acquiesced!

I'm the Mad Hatter Offering a little bit more. The Mad Hatter, Giving you what you're looking for.

I am your best worst case For the choice you face, And the fastest rat in the race! It's me or the queen And her serene guillotine.

There is nothing I won't do, There is nothing too taboo, I will lie, I will cheat, I will track you down And then hit delete tout suite!

So sweetie let me repeat... I'm the Mad Hatter, Lend allegiance while you still can, The Mad Hatter More than just a Hat with a plan.

I am where you belong, The right kind of wrong, And I'll still be going real strong!

The bottom line Is everything will be fine. As all the planets align, It's gonna be so divine. When all of this will be MINE!!

View Lyrics
I've had it up to here With all these holier-than-thous Who want to save me from the devils wicked den
When all they really want is What those jokers always want And when they get we don't see them Until they want it again
Don't quote me no commandments Don't preach me no jive There's only one commandment Thou shall survive
Maybe I'm a sinner, but who's gonna cast the first stone? It's my body and my body Is nobody's business but my own Nobody's business but my own
What if I'm a sinner, hey, I ain't exactly alone It's my body and my body Is nobody's business but my own Nobody's business but my own
All those uptown ladies Look and dress so fine They can sell it their way, Let me sell it mine!
Maybe you don't like it Maybe you don't like it But that don't mean nothing because My body is my business, My business not yours
I know what I'm doing And I know who I am If you got a problem I don't give a damn (3x)
Ain't no doubt about it 'Cause baby it's written in stone It's my body not your body Cuz my body is my business, My business Is my business And nobody's business (4x) But my own!

I look at all them pictures in the magazines Where they show you all the models in designer jeans All the girls are skinny are their hair is flat Why would we want to look like that?

We like the fashion don’ts and not the dos We read the comics and I throw away the news Cityfolks laugh at our K-mart clothes But we got our own style and we got out own nose

12 step programs make me yawn But I could 2 step all night long Pink flamingos on my lawn But, don’t call us trailer trash, we live in a mobile home

You can always keep me down on the farm Cause I’ve always like a man with a half tan arm A pickup truck with over-sized tires make me weak in the knees And sets my heart on fire

Cheese fries, wise guys, demolition derbies Stir fries, nice guys do nothing fer me Never cut out gourmet recipes, We prefer the cuisine at the tasty freeze

We like cars with lots of chrome We can make art out of Styrofoam We ain’t got no cellular phone But, don’t call us trailer trash, We live in a mobile home

Look at me I am gorgeous. I am absolutely gorgeous. There's this avalanche of beauty in one woman and I'm it. Ahh. Oh look at the way all of the parts fit together.
Stunning. See the way my nose stopped running. I was positive this creature was there inside here ol' me. All bottled up waiting to get free. Now I see the real me.
Look at this, look at that. Look at those, let me just feel me. Beautiful, glamorous, radiant, ravishing. Look at the hair. Look at this shape. Look everywhere.
I am such a divine me. Every studio will sign me. My cup runneth over. Whoever saw such a complete wow! Nobody will say no to me now. No one, is as, gorgeous, as. Me-Ahhhhhhh.

HILDY: Oh, I can cook, too, on top of the rest, My seafood's the best in the town. And I can cook, too. My fish can't be beat, My sugar's the sweetest around. I'm a man's ideal of a perfect meal Right down to the demi-tasse. I'm a pot of joy for a hungry boy, Baby, I'm cookin' with gas. Oh, I'm a gumdrop, A sweet lollipop, A brook trout right out of the brook, And what's more, baby, I can cook!
Some girls make magazine covers, Some girls keep house on a dime, Some girls make wonderful lovers, But what a lucky find I'm. I'd make a magazine cover, I do keep house on a dime, I make a wonderful lover, I should be paid overtime!

'Cause I can bake, too, on top of the lot, My oven's the hottest you'll find. Yes, I can roast too, My chickens just ooze, My gravy will lose you your mind. I'm a brand new note On a table d'hote, But just try me? la carte. With a single course You can choke a horse. Baby, you won't know where to start! Oh, I'm an hors d'oeuvre, A jelly preserve, Not in the recipe book, And what's more, baby, I can cook!

Baby, I'm cookin' with gas. Oh, I'm a gumdrop, A sweet lollipop, A brook trout right out of the brook, And what's more, baby, I can cook!

Some girls make wonderful jivers, Some girls can hit a high "C", Some girls make good taxi drivers, But what a genius is me. I'd make a wonderful jiver, I even hit a high "C", I make the best taxi driver, I rate a big Navy "E"!

'Cause I can fry, too, on top of the heap, My Crisco's as deep as a pool. Yes, I can broil, too, My ribs get applause, My lamb chops will cause you to drool. For a candied sweet Or a pickled beet, Step up to my smorgasbord. Walk around until You get your fill. Baby, you won't ever be bored! Oh, I'm a pat? A marron glac? A dish you will wish you had took. And what's more, baby, I can cook!!

WOMEN It’s a woman’s world

GEORGIE I’ll be president

SUSAN I’ll be queen

JOANIE I’ll be Tina Turner –

WOMEN It’s a woman’s world

GEORGIE ‘Cause tonight

WOMEN Yeah tonight

ALL It’s a woman’s world

GEORGIE Work all day, I come home and he’s all pissed It’s a wallow-in-the-mudfest Now I know all I need to clear the system’s Just a raunchy little studfest

God bless their little G-strings!

All that music and all that beat Who’s feeling funny –

WOMEN It’s a woman’s world

GEORGIE All those men moving All that meat Tonight, honey-honey –

WOMEN It’s a woman’s world

SUSAN I like the chunky little butt On that motorcycle cop I wanna go up there and bite it

GEORGIE You’ll chip a tooth, honey!

JOANIE Or G.I. Joe with the military jock I’d give a hundred bucks to see what’s inside it

SUSAN What’s inside it?

ESTELLE What’s inside it?

ALL Why do they hide it?

All that music and all that beat Making me dizzy It’s a woman’s world All those men moving All that meat

GEORGIE Let’s get busy!

ALL It’s a woman’s world Well it might be the men’s room

GEORGIE Yeah, but tonight –

ALL It’s a woman’s world!

Context & Lyrics


High school junior Campbell decides to form a cheerleading squad of her own to get back at her rival Eva.
View Lyrics
CAMPBELL Gone My one chance to shine The friends I called mine The girl the world will never see More than replaced It’s like she’s erased the best of me
I have no choice I’ve got to take back what she stole Get back my one moment
Made a vow I was gonna be a cheerleader Like the Buccaneers in front of me Now if only I could find a way To get back into the Nationals And make her pay!

Nautica! La Cienega! Danielle! Jackson?

COMPANY Jackson! Go Jackson! Go jackson! Go go go Jackson go! Oh… Let everybody know Campbell’s back-

CAMPBELL This is my town! Oh…

COMPANY Oh…. and Eva’s going down! Eva is like the best-coolest- sweetest cheer captain… I’m in love with Eva Oh my god!

Bring it on! Go! Bring it on! Go Campbell! Bring it on! Go Campbell go!

CAMPBELL I’ll take first place and throw it in your face!

COMPANY Rah!

CAMPBELL Think you can beat me? Go ahead c’mon!

COMPANY C’mon! c’mon! c’mon!

CAMPBELL And once I have my squad You’ll feel the wrath of God

COMPANY So let the doubters And the haters And my tears be gone!

CAMPBELL I’m gonna bring it on!

COMPANY My year! My time!

CAMPBELL I’m gonna bring it on!

COMPANY My destiny! Bring it on-

CAMPBELL Gonna bring it on!

Context & Lyrics


View Lyrics
When I was very young, I had a perfect life. My Pa a perfect husband and my Ma a perfect wife. And everyday my life went by so perfectly? I made a perfect plan, I dreamed some perfect dreams. But now I look around, my dreams are splitting at the seams! I made one big decision and now look at me? When I do something wrong I do it perfectly?

My big mistake, Roping you in. I got my wish, Now I can't win. I thought once I caught you you'd quit your roamin' But I'm the one who's caught in a world I'm not at home in!

My big mistake, Thinking you'd change. Fancyin' life Home on the range. 'Cause I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make I love my big mistake!

I like days, I'll carefully reckon You live life from second to second Yet just touch me, and there's no other choice I'd make? I love my big mistake!
