The Wild Party movie - By Now The Room Was Moving lyrics
rate me<br>
PHIL & OSCAR<br>
By now the room was moving<br>
<br>
MAE<br>
And Queenie set to pounce<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
The gang at last<br>
Was grooving fast<br>
<br>
OSCAR<br>
Progressing ounce by ounce.<br>
<br>
BURRS<br>
She knew that Burrs could harm her<br>
<br>
EDDIE<br>
But she was feelin' strange<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
So through the wine<br>
She drew the line and said<br>
<br>
QUEENIE<br>
Time to make a change<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
Queenie<br>
Kate<br>
Burrs<br>
Black<br>
The night was moving forward<br>
Not back<br>
Not back<br>
<br>
MAX<br>
Then with no inhibition<br>
<br>
SAM<br>
Went Kate to conquer all<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
She fought to win<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
She zeroed in<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
To see who'd bag the ball.<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
And Black took his position<br>
To swiftly take the floor<br>
<br>
BLACK<br>
They'd start the dance<br>
He'd get his chance<br>
In just one minute more<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
Queenie<br>
Burrs<br>
Black<br>
Kate<br>
And what was the order of business?<br>
Some love <br>
Some hate<br>
<br>
They formed the figuration<br>
They poured it down the hatch<br>
And one wrong turn<br>
The whole place would burn<br>
<br>
BURRS<br>
But who would strike the match?<br>
<br>
QUEENIE<br>
Who would strike the match?<br>
<br>
QUEENIE, BURRS, BLACK, KATE<br>
Who's it gonna be?<br>
Who's it gonna be?<br>
Who's it gonna be?<br>
<br>
ALL<br>
Who's it gonna be?<br>
<br>
QUEENIE (approaching Black, seductively)<br>
I don't know you, we've hardly spoken but<br>
I was wondering -<br>
Are you available?<br>
<br>
While you're waiting for Kate to hurry back<br>
I was hoping that Maybe we'd dance a while.<br>
<br>
BLACK<br>
I'm available and I'd love to dance<br>
Won't you offer your hand to me, Queenie?<br>
Let's dance.<br>
<br>
(They dance.)<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
Won't you tell me, Burrs<br>
After seven years<br>
Why we've never been into the sack before?<br>
<br>
BURRS<br>
Kate, don't bother me<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
I've just asking why:<br>
<br>
BURRS<br>
When we met you were less than a dirty whore.<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
Yes, but that was before I got smart<br>
Now my whoring has turned into art.<br>
<br>
BURRS<br>
Maybe true, but I'll be the judge of that.<br>
<br>
KATE<br>
Let's forget it and tear up the carpet mat.<br>
<br>
(They dance. Burrs leaves her to break up Queenie and Black.<br>
Kate pushes ahead of him.)<br>
<br>
KATE (to Black)<br>
Do you think I could have this dance?<br>
Queenie, darling, we've hardly talked <br>
Black, why don't you go get a drink?<br>
(aside to Black)<br>
Wink, wink, I know what you're thinking.<br>
<br>
We girls need just a quiet pause <br>
Burrs, I'll join you in just a mo', <br>
Look, they're starting to juggernaut<br>
Let's join in<br>
Let's go go!<br>
<br>
