Testo di ' What You Want ' di Legally Blonde The Musical

[Elle]
Wait a minute
This is the kind of girl Warner wants
Someone serious
Someone lawyerly. Someone who wears black when
Nobodies dead
Girls I have a completely brilliant plan

What you want, Warner
What you want is me
But you need to see me in a brand new domain
Well its plain, Warner
In a different setting
You will see your getting

All of this plus a brain
I'll meet you there at Harvard with a book in my hand
Big sturdy book
Big wordy book
Full of words I'll understand
And right there is where you'll see it too
What you want is right in front of you

[All]
What you want
Its clear
What you want
Right here
What you want is right in front of you, front of you
What you want
Its clear
What you want
Right here
What you want is right in front of you, front of you

[Elle]
Step 1 he's off to Harvard law
So I get in there too

[Delta Nu Girls]
Step 2

[Elle]
Make him reassess
Impress him with my high IQ

[Delta Nu Girls]
Step 3

[Elle]
We throw a wedding

[All]
And invite all delta nu

[Kate]
That's great. Nice plan
Now can we think this through
(Spoken) Harvard law school

[Elle]
I have a 4. 0 average

[Kate]
Yea in fashion merchandising. What makes you think you can do this

[Elle]
Love
I'm doing this for love
And love will see me through yes
With love on my side I can't lose
And Harvard can't refuse
A love so pure and true
Don't lawyers feel love too

[Kate]
Even if they do
What you want sweetheart is no easy thing
If you're going to swing it it will wreck your senior spring
Yes its true
First you'll need an LSAT score of more than 174
So no more parties for you
You'll need a killer essay
Or do not even hope
And glowing letter from your betters
Any chance you know the pope
Oh no too bad
Cause that would be a coup
And you got a lot of work in front of you

[All]
What you want

[Elle]
Yes I know

[All]
What you want

[Elle]
Even so

[All]
What you want is right in front of you, front of you
What you want

[Kate]
No really go

[All]
What you want is right in front of you front of you

[Dad]
Law school

[Elle]
Yes daddy law school

[Dad]
God why law school is for boring, ugly, serious people
And you button are none of those things
(Sung) What you want button, hey you just say the word
But what you wants absurd
And costs a whole of of smack
And hell why button
When you can stay right here
Pursue a film career

[Mom]
How about a nice Birkin bag

[Dad]
Yes, the east coast is foreign
There's no film studios
Its cold and dark
No valet parking
All the girls have different noses
Christ, button its like the damn frontier
Mom and Dad
Tell me whats out there that you can't get right here

[Elle]
Guys, Love
I'm going there for love
A love I have to win
I can live without Sun or valet
I can't just walk away
Betray what might have been

[Dad]
Fine ok

[All]

[Margot]
This year's theme Jamaican me crazy

Reggae
What you want, you wanna be out because the Sun she warm
What you want, you wanna be study stuck inside your dorm
What you want, you wanna be partying with us all night long
What you want, you wanna be strong

[All]

[Kate]

Reggae
What you want, you wanna be grooving bump and shake the room
What you want, you wanna be proving something and to whom
What you want, you wanna be wondering where your youth is gone
What you want, you wanna hold on
Hold on, 151 still not Harvard material. Once again Go

[Elle]
Love, I'm doing this for love
And that's how I'll survive
Here you go I said no go away
Right here is where I'll stay
Until that happy day
That day I hear him say

[Kate]

[Elle]

[All]
175, 175!

Gentlemen, Harvard law grants admission to Adam Cohen

Head shot

This is what Elle woods inspires
In everyone that hires her
And Harvard should too

[Professor #1]
This is not a personal essay!

[Elle / Ensemble]
No, an essay’s so boring and so much does not fit
So we’re appearing live right here
Making sure that you must admit that
Elle woods should join the chosen few
Harvard, what you is right in front of (cheer team breaks into dance)

[Elle]
And now some legal jargon!
Exhibit A!
Time for my cross!
I object!
May I approach!

[All]
Uh Huh, Oh Yea, Go Elle, HO

[Professor #1]
(Blows whistle loudly and dance team stops)
Now see here Ms. Woods
You can’t just barge in here with singing
And dancing, and ethnic movement!
This is a very
Flashy
Presentation, but Is till don’t see one reason to admit you!

[Elle]
How about love?
You ever been in love?
‘Cause if you have you’ll know
That Love never accepts a defeat
No challenge it can’t meet
No place it cannot go!
Don’t say no to a women in love!
Don’t laugh when I say love!
Don’t think that I’m naive!
‘Because even a person who’s smart
Can listen to their heart
Can listen and believe (Dancers in back waving flags and swaying)
So believe in what love can achieve
Do you Believe?

[Professor #2]
I Do!

[Elle]
Do you believe?

[Professor #3]
Me too!

[Ensemble]
Yes we believe in love how 'bout you
