Rock Of Ages movie - We Built This City / Too Much Time On My Hands lyrics
rate meREGINA: <br>
Mayor, we don’t really know the first thing about these people, or even what they want to build!<br>
<br>
HERTZ:<br>
SAY YOU DON’T KNOW ME,<br>
OR RECOGNIZE MY FACE<br>
SAY YOU DON’T CARE WHO GOES<br>
TO THAT KIND OF PLACE<br>
<br>
REGINA: <br>
KNEE DEEP IN THE HOOPLA<br>
SINKING IN YOUR FIGHT<br>
<br>
HERTZ; <br>
TOO MANY RUNAWAYS<br>
<br>
HERTZ & FRANZ: <br>
EATING UP THE NIGHT!<br>
<br>
HERTZ: <br>
MARCONI PLAYS THE MAMBA<br>
<br>
REGINA: <br>
LISTEN TO THE RADIO!<br>
DON’T YOU REMEMBER?<br>
WE BUILT THIS CITY<br>
WE BUILT THIS CITY ON…<br>
<br>
MAYOR: <br>
Clean, efficient living?<br>
<br>
HERTZ: <br>
Exactly!<br>
<br>
REGINA; <br>
But Mayor, think about the businesses already there! What about them!?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
They’re calling it “economic redevelopment.” Apparently “The Bourbon” no longer generates an “adequate tax revenue.”<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
That’s why I keep telling ya we need to bring back “Naked Jello Wrestling Thursdays!” But this time, check it, we let women<br>
enter.<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Maybe it’s time to cash it in anyway--<br>
<br>
DREW: <br>
Whoa, Dennis?! What are you saying?!<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
IT’S JUST--<br>
I’M SITTIN’ ON THIS BARSTOOL<br>
TALKIN’ LIKE A DAMN FOOL!<br>
GOT THE TWELVE O’CLOCK NEWS BLUES<br>
AND I’VE GIVEN UP HOPE<br>
FOR THE AFTERNOON SOAPS…<br>
AND A BOTTLE OF COLD BREW<br>
IS IT ANY WONDER I’M NOT CRAZY?<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
So chew a couple Prozac! Come on, Dennis!<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
IS IT ANY WONDER I’M SANE AT ALL?<br>
<br>
DREW: <br>
You do wash your hands a lot.<br>
<br>
LONNY/ DENNIS/ DREW/ HERTZ/ MAYOR/ FRANZ/ REGINA<br>
IS IT ANY WONDER I’VE GOT TOO MUCH (CLAP) TIME ON MY HANDS<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
AND IT’S TICKIN’ AWAY…<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
TICKIN’ AWAY FROM ME!<br>
So you sell, but what do I do?! “The Bourbon” is my life, man!<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Hold the phone! You guys see who’s in today’s paper?!<br>
<br>
DREW; <br>
Monster rockers, “Arsenal,” are breaking up. According to sources, lead singer, Stacee Jaxx, will leave the band after this<br>
tour to pursue a solo career--<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Perfect right? Lonny who gave Stacee and Arsenal their start?<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
We did so?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
So? What if we hosted their last gig…ever.<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
The last Arsenal show here?!<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Tell that wouldn’t generate an adequate tax revenue. Plus, Stacee still owes me from that hotel incident with the Cool Whip<br>
and the baby llama.<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
Love it.<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
I just hope it’s enough.<br>
<br>
LONNY: <br>
It’s gotta be I mean the mayor isn’t a total money grubbing whore. Wink.<br>
<br>
REGINA: <br>
Mayor, you’re not thinking clearly.<br>
<br>
HERTZ: <br>
Mayor, take ze money unt…<br>
<br>
HERTZ/ ENSEMBLE: <br>

<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Stacee? It’s Denbo.<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
Who?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
Dennis, Dennis Dupree. Listen, how would you like to do your “Arsenal” farewell show here at “The Bourbon?”<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
Yeah, well we already got something planned for our last tour gig in Portland. So ah…<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
I understand that. but just imagine for a second your last gig in a place that started it all. A lot of press on something<br>
like that.<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
Yeah it sounds cool but ah…<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
And of course, we’d put your name ABOVE the band. Stacee Jaxx and Arsenal. One night only. Right before a solo album…Which,<br>
just between you and me, I’m so glad you’re doing. You know what I always used to say about you.<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
What?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
WELL, YOU’RE A JET FUEL GENIUS<br>
YOU CAN SOLVE THE WORLD’S PROBLEMS<br>
WITHOUT EVEN TRYIN’<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
It’s true.<br>
I HAVE DOZENS OF FRIENDS<br>
AND THE FUN NEVER ENDS<br>
THAT IS, AS LONG AS I’M BUYIN’<br>
IS IT ANY WONDER I’M NOT THE PRESIDENT?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
I’d vote for you, Stacee.<br>
<br>
STACEE JAXX: <br>
IS IT ANY WONDER I’M NULL AND VOID?<br>
<br>
DENNIS: <br>
I don’t even know what that means.<br>
<br>
