歌詞

Cassie: (spoken) I can't get a job Zach... God, you sound like all my friends - my fans. Acting like I'm a star and don't know it - when the truth is I never even came close and nobody has the guts to tell me. Well, it would be nice to be a star... But I'm not, I'm a dancer. (singing) GIVE ME SOMEBODY TO DANCE FOR, GIVE ME SOMEBODY TO SHOW. LET ME WAKE UP IN THE MORNING TO FIND I HAVE SOMEWHERE EXCITING TO GO. Zach: So, you're going through a slow period, it happens to everyone. Something will happen. Cassie: That's what I kept telling myself in California, and I kept telling myself that and telling myself that... Well... Nothing will happen. I can't act. Zach: What? Cassie: I can't act. And there I am in California supposed to be this actress. Well, it didn't take me long to find out I can't act... Didn't take Hollywood very long either. Zach: You didn't work out there? Cassie: Oh, sure... A rotten part in a so-so film - part ended up getting cut, thank God - I was a go-go dancer in a TV movie of the week. Let's see - Oh, yeah - commercials, I almost got to squeeze a roll of toilet paper but I lost out in the finals. Isn't' that something? Seventeen years in the business and I end up flunking toilet paper squeezing? And I was a dancing Band-Aid - that was fun... We had an earthquake... And I got a terrific tan - and surely you must have heard about... Zach: I did hear you were going out with some big agent. Being a bit wild, running around, carrying on... Cassie: Well, when you're a woman of leisure what else is there to do but get a bit wild and run around? Not to mention getting fat - and going crazy - Which is why I came back to New York and which is why I am here today, Zach, old dear... Little pussy cat. I need a job. (singing) TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT I CAN BELIEVE IN. TO HAVE SOMETHING TO BE. USE ME... CHOOSE ME Zach: I just can't see you dancing in the chorus, Cassie. Cassie: Why not? Zach: Listen, if you need some money, call my business manager. Cassie: Well, sure I need money. Who doesn't? But I don't need a handout. I need a job. I need a job and I don't know any other way to say it. Do you want me to say it again? Zach: No. Cassie: Fine, then we got that far. Look, I haven't worked in two years, not really. There's nothing left for me to do. So - I'm putting myself on the line. (Stepping to the line) Yes I'm putting myself on your line. I don't want to wait on tables. And what I really don't want to do is teach other people how to do what I should be doing myself... (singing) GOD, I'M A DANCER, A DANCER DANCES! GIVE ME SOMEBODY TO DANCE WITH. GIVE ME A PLACE TO FIT IN HELP ME RETURN TO THE WORLD OF LIVING BY SHOWING ME HOW TO BEGIN. PLAY ME THE MUSIC, GIVE ME A CHANCE TO COME THROUGH. ALL I EVER NEEDED WAS THE MUSIC, AND THE MIRROR, AND THE CHANCE TO DANCE FOR YOU. GIVE ME A JOB AND YOU INSTANTLY GET ME INVOLVED. IF YOU GIVE ME A JOB, THEN THE REST OF THE CRAP WILL GET SOLVED. PUT ME TO WORK, YOU WOULD THINK THAT BY NOW I'M ALLOWERD. I'LL DO YOU PROUD! THROW ME A ROPE TO GRAB ON TO. HELP ME TO PROVE THAT I'M STRONG. GIVE ME THE CHANCE TO LOOK FORWARD TO SAYIN': "HEY, LISTEN THEY'RE PLAYIN' MY SONG." PLAY ME THE MUSIC. GIVE ME A CHANCE TO COME THROUGH. ALL I EVER NEEDED WAS THE MUSIC, AND THE MIRROR, AND A CHANCE TO DANCE.... (Mirrors are now turned, dance section) PLAY ME THE MUSIC. PLAY ME THE MUSIC. PLAY ME THE MUSIC. GIVE ME A CHANCE TO COME THROUGH. ALL I EVER NEEDED WAS THE MUSIC, AND THE MIRROR, AND A CHANCE TO DANCE.... (Flying mirrors come in. Dance section)
