Romy and Michele's High School Reunion Page #3

Can't get enough|You know you're gonna have to face it

You're addicted to love|You see the signs

But you can't read

You're runnin' at|a different speed

Your heart beats|in double time

- Another kiss|- Um, Billy?

- And you'll be mine|- Hi.

- A one-track mind, you can't be saved|- Do you wanna dance?

- Oblivion is all you crave|- I mean, it's just 'cause...

this song is,|like, so great.

Mm. Never mind.

Unless, you know,|you want to.

- Whoa, you like to think|- Yeah. I mean-

- That you're immune to this stuff|- Y-Y- Sure. Why not?

- Oh, yeah -|Really? - Wh- Um-

- It's closer to the truth|- Could you wait here?

- To say you can't get enough -|I-I-I'll be right back. - Okay.

- Okay.|- You know, you're gonna have to face it You're addicted to love

Might as well face it|You're addicted to love

- Might as well face it|- Hey, Christie.

- You're addicted to love|- That Romy girl just asked me to dance with her.

- Might as well face it|- Oh, you're kidding me! Oh, that's pathetic!

- Might as well face it|- W-W-W-What should I do?

Let me take care of this.

- Michele?|- Oh, God. Okay, so what did he say?

- "Sure. Why not?"|- Oh, my God!

- Thanks a lot, Romy.|- What?

Thanks for stealing|my boyfriend.

- What are you talking about?|- Billy just broke up with me.

Apparently he's had a crush on|you since Mr Roswell's class.

And now that he knows that you like him, he|doesn't want to "pretend" with me any more.

My life was perfect|and you've ruined it.

Go for it|Groove ahead

I swear to God, Christie,|I didn't even think he'd dance with me.

- To whip it, Whip it good|- Wow. She is really P.O.'d.

- This is so cool!|- Oh, I know.

You know what is so weird? I had this|dream, where Billy was like, in love with me.

And I mean, he was in a wheelchair, but|still, it's like it's coming true or something!

- Uh-huh.|- How's my hair?

Perfect. Okay, Romy, you look so|good with blonde hair and black roots.

- It's like, not even funny.|- I have to say...

this is turning out to be one of|the very best nights of my entire life.

Yay, yay!

Lyin' in my bed I hear|the clock tick

And think of you

Caught up in circles

Confusion is nothing new

Flashback to warm nights

Almost left behind

- Suitcase of memories|- You know, maybe he's, like, passed out in the bathroom.

- You want me to go check?|- Time after, Sometimes

- You picture me|- He's not in the bathroom, Michele.

I'm walkin' too far ahead

- I'll dance with you, Romy.|- You're callin' to me

- I can't hear what|you've said - Okay. - Okay.

Then you say "Go slow"

I fall behind

The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look|and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you|I'll be waiting

Time after time

If you're lost, you can look|and you will find me

Time after time

- If you fall, I will catch you I'll be waiting|- I will be waiting

Time after time

Time after time

We just waited and waited.

- God, I was such an idiot.|- But wait till he sees you now.

You are so much cuter|than you were in high school.

- I guess I'm cuter.|- Yeah!

And look at the way we live.|I mean, just our lifestyle.

You know, I mean, we live in L.A,|and they are still stuck in Tucson.

You know what, Michele?|You're right.

We are gonna go back there|and blow them away.

Boy, there's a lot of questions to|answer. Why do we have to fill these out?

They wanna know what we've been|doing for the past ten years.

- Oh!|- Okay. Here we go.

- Ahh!|- "Name. "

- Ah! We're having so much fun already.|- Oh, I know!

- I cannot wait for this reunion.|- Me too!

"Occupation. "|Cashier.

- Unemployed.|- No. Don't write that.

Um, okay, so your last job|was as a salesgirl?

- So say you're a freelance fashion consultant.|- Ooh! Clever.

"Relationship Status. "|Married.

- Nope. -|Engaged? - No.

- Living with someone?|- Should I say you?

- I guess so.|- Okay.

- You know, Michele?|- Yeah?

- Now that I'm looking at this...|- Uh-huh?

our lives don't seem as|impressive as I thought.

- They don't?|- Well, do you think it's impressive...

that we're still single, and we've|been living together for ten years...

and I'm a cashier|and you're unemployed?

Well, not super impressive.

Well, then, what's the point of going|if we're not going to impress people?

Well- Uh.

Romy, I still really,|really, really want to go.

- I know. Me too.|- Well then, can't we just, like, think of something?

- Okay. Well, the reunion is still like two weeks away, right?|- Right.

And all we really need is maybe some,|like, better jobs and boyfriends. Right?

Yeah!

But, okay. If those things were so easy|to get, wouldn't we already have them?

Well, I mean, we never|really tried before.

I mean, we never really had a good enough|reason, like going to a reunion, to motivate us.

That's true.

Okay. So we're just gonna have to make|ourselves more impressive, that's all.

So I'm gonna go out and bag us some boyfriends,|while you can look for a cool new job.

- Okay.|- Plus, I hate to say it...

but I really think that|we should lose some weight.

Oh.

Oh. Unh.

Okay. I don't think that, like,|one chip makes a difference.

It wasn't even|a whole chip.

All right. According to this chart,|if we want to lose a pound a day...

we have to burn twice|as many calories as we eat.

So, that means, if we want|to burn 4,000 calories...

we only have to run|20 miles a day!

Oh! Hey, Romy, remember|Mrs Chivas' class?

There was, like,|always a word problem.

Like, there's a guy in|a rowboat going "X" miles...

and the current is going, like,|you know, some... other miles...

and, how long does it take him|to get to town?

It was like, who cares? Who wants to go|to town with a guy who drives a rowboat?

Okay, guys, let's jump.

- Hey, Michele? - Yeah? -|What does this remind you of?

Well, I know.|This lady is totally sick.

Uh, lemme just|say that, um...

I am, like, really familiar with the entire|Versace line, and if you would just...

give me a chance, I know I could,|like, sell the sh*t out of the stuff.

And, uh, to me,|fashion is just, it's like...

everything. It's-

By the way, that blouse- Hi.|That blouse looks great on you.

- Oh! Thank you!|- And see, I make a great salesperson...

'cause I just have this,|like, really believable way...

of telling people that they look really|good, even though I'm just, like, you know-

I think|she heard me.

Thank you so much|for coming.

- That's okay, you're welcome.|- I don't think we'll be requiring any new staff.

- You aren't taking on any what?|- Staff. Employees.

Ohh! Oh, "staff. "

Okay, I didn't understand|with your big accent.

I couldn't|figure it out. Okay.

Fine. You know, you really shouldn't|let people fill out applications...

if you don't want them to|actually try to get a job here.

- It's a compli- - No, no. That's|all I have to say. - Goodbye.

If there ain't no love|then there ain't no use

Ooh, better walk on by|Better walk on through

Hi. Hey, um, great suit.|Is that an Armani?
