lirik lagu laurence o'keefe & nell benjamin - what you want

[elle, spoken]
wait a sec! this is the kind of girl warner wants!
someone serious!
someone lawyerly!
someone who wears black when n-body’s dead!
girls, i have a completely brilliant plan!

(sung)
what you want, warner
what you want is me
but you need to see me in a brand new domain

well it’s plain, warner
in a different setting, you will see you’re 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
warner, what you want is right in front of you!

[delta nu]
what you want

[elle]
it’s clear

[delta nu]
what you want

[elle]
right here

[delta nu]
what you want is right in front of you, front of you
what you want

[elle]
it’s clear

[delta nu]
what you want

[elle]
right here

[delta nu]
what you want is right in front of you, front of you

[elle]
step one! he’s off to harvard law
so i get in there too

[delta nu]
step two!

[elle]
make warner re-ssess
impress him with my high iq

[delta nu]
step three!

[elle]
we throw a great big wedding

[elle & delta nu]
and invite all delta nu!

[kate, spoken]
that’s great, nice plan
now can we think this through?
harvard law school?

[elle, spoken]
i have a 4.0 average

[kate, spoken]
yeah, in fashion merchandising
what makes you think you can do this?

[elle, sung]
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, spoken]
even if they do

(sung)
what you want, sweetheart is no easy thing
if you’re going to swing it, it will wreck your senior spring
yeah, it’s true
first, you’ll need an lsat score of more than 174
so no more parties for you

you’ll need a k!ller essay, or do not even hope
and glowing letters from your betters
any chance you know the pope?

[elle]
uh, nope

[kate]
too bad, ’cause that would be a coup
and you’ve got a lot of work in front of you

[delta nu]
what you want

[elle]
yes i know

[delta nu]
what you want

[elle]
even so

[delta nu]
what you want is right in front of you, front of you
what you want
(girl, you go!)
what you want

[kate, spoken]
no, really, go!

[delta nu, sung]
what you want is right in front of you, front of you

[father, spoken]
law school?

[elle, spoken]
yes, daddy, law school!

[father, spoken]
good god, why? law school is for boring, ugly, serious people!
and you, b-tton, are none of those things

(sung)
what you want, b-tton, you just say the word!
but what you want’s absurd
and costs a whole lot of swag
and h-ll, why?
b-tton, when you can stay right here
pursue a film career—

[mother]
how ’bout a nice birkin bag?

[father]
yes, the east coast is foreign
there’s no film studios
it’s cold and dark, no valet parking
all the girls have different noses!
christ, b-tton! it’s like the d-mned frontier!

[father & mother]
tell me what’s out there that you can’t get right here?

[elle]
guys, love!

[father & mother]
love?

[elle]
i’m going there for love

[father & mother]
good god!

[elle]
a love i have to win
i can live without sun or valet
i can’t just walk away
betray what might have been

[father]
fine, okay, i’ll pay your way if you get in!

[all]
what you want

[father & mother]
make good grades

[all]
what you want

[father & mother]
and it’s paid

[all]
what you want is right in front of you, front of you

what you want, you wanna hold on?

[elle, spoken]

[all, sung]

[grandmaster chad, sung]
what you want, you wanna be breathing in the healthy air?
what you want, you wanna be chasing him and he don’t care?
what you want, you wanna ignore the pity in their looks
what you want, you wanna say sorry, go and hit me books
what you want, you wanna sittin’ like a lonely child
what you want, you wanna be drivin’ all the fellas wild
what you want, you wanna be feelin’ good to be alive…

[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 them say…

[kate]

[delta nu]

[harvard professor, spoken]
so, gentlemen
harvard law grants admission to adam cohen and sundeep padamadan
and now, ms. elle woods, who was kind enough to send in a headshot…

[other professor, spoken]
we should admit her, for reasons of, um . . . multiculturalism!

[professors, spoken]
multiculturalism!

[harvard professor, spoken]
oh gentlemen, please! get a hold of yourselves!
oh, look at that! oh, what a shame!
she didn’t bother sending in a personal essay!

[pilar, spoken]
how’s this for a personal essay?

[delta nu]
what you want!

[harvard professor]
goodness me!

[delta nu]
what you want!

[harvard professor]
security!

[delta nu]
what you want is right in—

[harvard professor, spoken]
who are you?

[elle]
i’m what you want, harvard
i’m the girl for you!

[elle & delta nu]
and to prove it’s true

[elle]
we all flew here on jet blue

[elle & delta nu]
thank you!

[jet blue pilot]
thank you!

[delta nu]
this is what elle woods inspires
everyone admires her
and harvard should too!

[harvard professor, spoken]
this is not a personal essay!

[delta nu]
no!
an essay’s so boring and so much does not fit
so we’re appearing live, right here
making clear you must admit
that elle woods should join the chosen few
harvard, what you want is right in front of—

[elle]
may i approach?

[delta nu]
uh-huh! oh yeah! go elle!

[harvard professor, spoken]
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 i still don’t see one reason to admit you!

[elle]
how about love?
have 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 woman 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
so believe in what love can achieve

do you believe?

[professor, spoken]
i do!

[elle]
do you believe?

[professor, spoken]
me too!

[all]
yes, we believe in love!
how ’bout you?

[harvard professor, spoken]
welcome to harvard!

[all]
what you want
what you want
what you want is right in front of you, front of you
what you want
what you want
what you want is right in front of you, front of you

what you want
what you want
what you want
what you want!
