Burlesque Page #6

Its burlesque.

Burlesque

There's only one reason

a man buys a woman shoes.

So what if I'm getting

a little male attention?

You're getting a lot more

than a little.

Not from anyone that matters.

I just think you should be careful.

And I think that if you really

feel the need to tell a girl

what she should and shouldn't do...

...you should pick up the phone

and call your fiance.

I tease em til theyre on the edge

They screamin for more and

for more they beg

I know its me they come to see

My pleasure brings them

to their knees

Fasten up, could you imagine

what would happen

if I let you close enough to touch

Step into the fantasy,

youll never want to leave,

baby lets give it to you

[WHY?]

Its a passion, and emotion,

its a fashion, burlesque

Itll move, goin through you,

so do what I do, burlesque

All ladies come put your grown up,

boys throw it up if you want it

Can you feel me, can you feel it?

Its burlesque.

- That's major.

- My goodness.

Major? Check again. The only thing

major is the size of Coco's ass.

Monsieur Louboutin is at Table 18

and he's asking for you.

It's a weird angle.

Easy.

I'm so glad you got to-

There she is, the girl of the hour.

I'm starting to think,

you'd go to any length.

I just made a call to Greg

at the Times.

I want you to meet a friend of mine.

Ali Rose, Harold Saint.

Harold-? Shut up.

You worked with Etta James.

Her. Chewed me up

and spat me out, that one.

Hello.

You've got a set of pipes on you too,

young lady.

Thanks.

We have to do something about that.

You snooze, you lose, pretty boy.

Standing room only.

I know, doesn't it look great?

But I just got another notice

from the bank.

We would have to fill Dodger Stadium

for a month to come up with

the cash we need.

I just gotta figure out a way

to buy us more time.

- Hey.

- Hey.

That really is a great shot.

It's so weird seeing myself

in the paper like that.

Well, you might have to

get used to it.

I don't think I ever could.

You know, I don't wanna come off

like the wise old fairy godmother...

...but maybe you could learn

from my mistakes.

What do you mean?

You gotta learn who are the people

that you can trust...

who are the people who really

like you for you...

...and who are the people who

just want something from you.

- You don't like Marcus, do you?

- No, I don't.

I don't like him. I don't trust him.

I don't think you should trust him.

But is that really what's best for me

or what's best for you?

I don't know.

I hope it's best for both of us.

All right.

See you tomorrow.

There you are.

These babies desperately need

your glue gun, okay?

- Especially this one.

- Okay.

- Okay?

- Yep.

She's not going anywhere.

- Good night.

- Night.

Oh, hey, Tess.

I got that track you wanted to

rehearse for tomorrow night show.

Jesus.

Honey, I'm sorry. I've got a

million things on my mind

and I completely forgot.

It's all good.

If it's too late now, I guess I can

come in early tomorrow morning?

No, no. Let's just... let's just

get it out of the way.

You want a spot?

Yeah.

Feelin' broken

Barely holdin' on

But there's still something

so strong

Somewhere inside me

And I am down

But I'll get up again

Don't count me out just yet

I've been brought

Down to my knees

And I've been pushed

Way past the point of breakin'

But I can take it

I'll be back

Back on my feet

This is far from over

You haven't seen the last of me

You haven't seen the last of me

They can say that

I won't stay around

But I'm gonna stand my ground

You're not gonna stop me

You don't know me

You don't know who I am

Don't count me out so fast

I've been brought

Down to my knees

And I've been pushed

Way past the point of breakin'

But I can take it

I'll be back

Back on my feet

This is far from over

You haven't seen the last of me

There will be no fade-out

This is not the end

I'm down now

But I'll be standin' tall again

Times are hard but

I was built tough

I'm gonna show you all

What I'm made of

I've been brought

Down to my knees

And I've been pushed

Way past the point of breakin'

But I can take it

I'll be back

Back on my feet

This is far from over

I am far from over

You haven't seen the last of me

No, no, I'm not goin' nowhere

I'm stayin' right here

Oh, no, you won't see me fade out

I'm not takin' my bow

Can't stop me

It's not the end

You haven't seen the last of me

Oh, no, you haven't seen

The last of me

You haven't seen the last of me

- Tess, we need to talk.

- No.

- Yes.

- I'm tired, Nikki.

Well, then you can just listen.

We built this club together...

...and then some girl shows up

from out of nowhere...

- ... who hasn't even paid her dues-

How do you know what dues she's paid?

This chick doesn't sing that way

because she's had it easy.

"They don't come

to hear us sing, Nikki."

Or is that just bullshit now?

You're drunk.

Go inside and call a cab.

I will not be upstaged

by some slut within months!

Then leave.

You'd ruin our friendship

over some girl you barely know?

So much for loyalty!

Since when did you know

anything about loyalty?

How many goddamn times

have I peeled you off the sidewalk?

How many blackouts?

How many times have I held

your head over the toilet bowl

...while you threw up everything

but your memories?

Okay, fine!

But I will not stand in the back!

Tess, you need to fix this-

You think you're my only problem?

I'm about to lose my club.

I'm about to lose the only thing

that means anything to me.

I have more to worry about

than trying to keep you

from pouring tequila on

your Cheerios.

Fine.

- I quit!

- I'm glad!

Nikki, don't drive.

By the way...

...I slept with Vince

the night after your honeymoon.

You crazy b*tch!

Morning.

Do you really have to do that

at 6 a.m.?

Coffee?

No, but a little peace and quiet

would be nice.

You are a little overdressed

for breakfast.

My pajamas were in the bedroom,

which was occupied.

You're never here, so I figured it'd

be stupid for me to crash on the couch

when there is a perfectly good,

empty bed right there.

So, what do you want, the bedroom

back? Is that what you're saying?

Should be used by someone.

I'm home every night.

Maybe not when you think

I should be but last I checked,

you are my roommate, not my mother.

However, since it's such an issue...

What the hell. Take the bedroom.

I'll sleep on the couch.

- Fine!

- Fine.

- You're gonna have to move your sh*t.

- I realize that.

It is a total mess in there.

You got stuff everywhere.

Clothes, shoes, hair-

Jesus... Jack! What is your problem?

You're acting like a total prick.

Is there something you wanna say?
