Music And Lyrics Page #7

-Oh, really?

-Oh, yes. A big one.

l'm headlining

at Adventureland Amusement Park:

Long lsland's family fun center.

Biggest outdoor amusement center

east of Rye Playland.

-You have my permission to be impressed.

-Sounds great.

-Okay.

-Yeah.

-So.

-So.

l mean, you....

You could come.

I said I wasn't gonna lose my head

-Nut then pop goes my heart

-Pop goes my heart

I wasn't gonna fall in love again

-Nut then pop goes my heart

-Pop goes my heart

And I just can't let you go

I can't lose this feeling

Okay. Let's hear everyone clapping.

Hey, come on. These guys over here on line

at the Little Dipper, let's hear you clapping.

Don't-- Don't if you don't want to.

A twist of fate makes life worthwhile

You are gold and silver

I said I wasn't gonna lose my head

-Nut then pop goes my heart

-Pop goes my heart

And I just can't let you go

Thank you very much.

Thank you, Adventureland. Thank you.

Thank you.

That was great. That was great.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

Good show.

All right, you gotta do the encore.

-Do l really have to?

-lt's in the contract.

Wanna do ''Meaningless Kiss''

or ''Dance With Me Tonight''?

This is embarrassing. They don't want it.

No, it's not.

These songs, they're fantastic.

l mean, l've never heard

most of them before...

...but they're full of wonderful

melodic surprises and they're catchy...

...and they're making people happy

and they're just good.

So you should be incredibly proud

to sing them.

You're not just saying that

because you've been on the wave ride?

They're good, really good.

Okay, then.

''Dance With Me Tonight,'' please.

lt's not often one man

gets to say that to another with such joy.

Thank you.

Okay. PoP face.

Thank you.

It's been so long

Since I've known right from wrong

Got no job

Sometimes I just sit down and sob

Wondering if anything will go right

Or will you dance with me tonight

When the sun departs

I feel a hole down in my heart

Put on some shoes

Come down here and listen to the blues

Wondering if anything will go right

Or will you dance with me tonight

I'm looking at you

You're looking at me

We're the only two off the dance floor

Do you see what I see?

Two broken lives

Working in harmony

Might make for a decent time

So get up and dance with me

lt was a great show.

You should be very pleased.

How much money did we make?

l don't talk business in front of a non-client.

You know that.

Actually, l'm thinking

about signing with you.

Well, well, thank you, Sophie.

That's-- That's terrific.

ln that case, l don't think it's right

to talk about one client's business affairs...

...in front of another client.

l'm discreet that way.

You don't know how much money

we made, do you?

l have a ballpark figure.

ls it enough for a nice dinner?

Dinner. l'm supposed to go

to Rhonda's for dinner. l'm late.

Oh, God, help.

You know, she wouldn't yell at me

if you came.

Oh, very well.

l can't go.

l'm losing my mind.

You've got me frazzled.

-Oh, there you go. You're gonna love these.

-Thank you. That's plenty. Honestly.

Trust me, you're gonna want

even more than that. Say when.

When, when, when. Thank you.

Thank you. That's plenty. Thank you.

-One more. Trust me.

-No.

Listen, now, l don't wanna be

presumptuous...

...but l'm about to open

a new Weight-Not in Boca...

...and l was wondering

if maybe you'd like to perform.

Sounds wonderful. l performed

at a fat farm once. They loved me.

l threw out treats from the stage.

They went crazy.

lt was like a dietetic Altamont.

That's funny.

-Honey, no cell phones at the table.

-Could be Jessie about the meeting.

lf we break the rules, what'll the kids think?

Don't. Sorry, Alex. Very rude.

Weirdo, is there a way

we could go to the Cora show?

-That would be so cool.

-We could work that out.

l believe we can.

l believe we've become close friends.

Don't bug him with stuff like that.

Sorry, sorry, sorry. Apologies.

l know the rules. Turn it off.

Oh, no, honey. You go right ahead.

You're a guest.

You sure? You want me

to call Jessie back while l'm...?

l'll be very quick.

Chris, yes? Say that again.

Cora's people what?

What? ls it about the song?

Really?

-What does he say?

-lt's Sophie.

Really?

Okay. Okay, got it.

Cora is back in town tomorrow...

...and wants to meet us at her studio

to work on the song.

And she wants to know

if we like wheatgrass.

-Sounds ominous.

-Are you worried?

-Well, l don't-- You know, yeah.

-lf you're not worried, l'm not worried.

You've got your worried eyes.

You look like a little worried doggy.

Sophie, bring those dishes in here, hon.

Okay, honey. You lead, l'll follow.

-There you go. There you go.

-What?

Nothing. Just looking.

What? What? What, what, what?

-Well, look. As your older sister--

-Seven years older.

Now, that's just uncalled for.

Why do you do that?

lt just-- lt hurts, you know?

Look. l like Alex, you know.

l mean, he's Alex Fletcher. So hot.

And he ate my mashed potatoes.

Yes. lt was a magical evening.

But look, hon, you don't fall a lot.

And l've seen the way you look at him,

so if you are falling for him...

...just please, please make sure

he's passionate about you.

Well, you know, l mean, l'm not falling.

We're just working together, you know?

And besides, the one time we slept

together, it's been totally professional.

-You did not.

-l did.

You slept with Alex Fletcher?

Oh, my God.

Don't worry about it, all right?

Besides, you know,

how do you know who's passionate?

You know, l think you--

l think you just see it in their eyes.

And you feel it in their touch.

ln Gary's case, it was when he said

to his mother, ''l'm marrying her anyway.''

God, l hate her.

l don't know. l think it's just

when they do something extraordinary.

Soph, just be careful, okay?

Okay.

And bigger. And bigger. And bigger.

With claps, and:

Ready to spin. And:

Well, that was fun.

lt was, it was, it was.

Except for those potatoes.

What l imagine eating insulation

would taste like.

So Cora tomorrow?

Yes, tomorrow, 1 0:00,

her studio, 1 9th Street.

-Should l meet you there?

-That would be fine.

Although l was gonna take a cab.

And seeing as l live

further uptown than you...

...l could, theoretically, pick you up.

You could if l was on the street

at, say, like, 9:40.

l would probably see you, depending

how brightly you were dressed.

l'd wear orange so you couldn't miss me.

You could get some road work done

while you wait.

Well, goodbye and thank you.

Thank you very much for this. l enjoyed it.

-And thank you for your support today.

-Thank you. Today was great.

-lt was.

-Okay. Bye.

Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

l want you to hear the new intro

to ''Way Back lnto Love.''

So imagine this:

lnstead of just starting the song

with the piano...

...we get this heavy lndian thing going,

very rhythmic.

Derek, give me a beat:

steamy and sticky.

Way back into love

She's been living
