Some People

[ Top ]

Momma Rose
Anybody that stays home is dead. If I die, it won't be from
sitting, it
54. will be from fighting to get up and get out!
55. Some people can't get a thrill,
56. needing sweaters and sitting still
57. That's OK for some people who don't know they're alive
58. Some people can't thrive and bloom living life in a living tomb
59. That's perfect for some people of one hundred and five
60. But I at least gotta try
61. When I think of all the sights that I gotta see and
62. All the places I gotta play
63. All the things that I gotta be at
64. Come on Papa, what do you say?
65. Some people can't be content playing Bingo and paying rent
66. That's pretty for some people
67. For some humdrum people to be
68. But some people ain't me!
69. I had a dream, a wonderful dream, Papa
70. All about June in the Orpheum Circuit
71. Give me a chance and I know I can work it

I had a dream just as real as can be, Papa


That I was in Mr. Orpheum's office
And he was saying to me: Rose!
Get yourselves a new orchestration,
New routines and red velvet curtains,
Get a feathered hat for the baby,
Photograph in front of the theater,
Get an agent and in a tick-tack
You may be on top of the big tide
Oh, what a dream, a wonderful dream, Papa
And all that I need is eighty-eight bucks
Papa, that's what he said, Papa, only eighty-eight...bucks!
Papa
You ain't getting eighty-eight cents from me, Rose!

Momma Rose
Then I'll get some place else, but I'll get it and get my kids
out!
90. Goodbye to Blueberry Pie
91. Good greetings to all the socials I hat to go to
92. All the largess I had to play
93. All the swines that I said "hello" to
94. Hey L.A. I'm coming your way
95. Some people sit on their butts
96. Got the dream, yeah, but not the guts
97. That's living for some people
98. For some humdrum people, I suppose
99. Well, they can stay and rot...
100. But not Rose!

115. We have so much in common,
116. It's a phenomenon
117. we could pull our resources
118. By joining forces from now on
119. Funny, you're a man who likes children
120. That's na important sign
121. Lucky, I'm a woman with children
122. Small world, isn't it?
123. Funny, isn't it?

Have another bottle of tea
Mr. Goldstone I love you!
Herbie
There are good stones, and bad stones
Momma Rose
And curb stones and glad stones
And cut stones and such stones as them
There are big stones and small stones
And rain stones and cold stones
All
But goldstone is a gem!
There are mile stones, there are mill stones
There's a cherry, there's a yellow, there's a blue
But we don't want any old stone
Only goldstone will do!
Moon stones, sun stones
We only stray for one stone
Mr. Goldstone, we love you!
Goldstone!

My birthday is here at last
Little lamb, little lamb
My birthday goes by so fast
Little bear, little bear
You sit on my right
Right there
Little hen, little hen
What game should we play and when?
Little cat, little cat
Oh, why do you look so blue?
Did somebody paint you like that,
Or is your birthday too?
Little fish, little fish
Do you think I'll get my wish?
Little lamb, little lamb
I wonder how old I am
I wonder how old I am

If I ever let lucid
It'd end with me
Picking up walking
Rose
Ha, only around the block!
Herbie
No!
Rose
Don't say that... You'll never get away from me
You can find the tallest tree
I'll be there somehow
True you could say: "Hey, here's your hat!"
But a little thing like that couldn't stop me now
I couldn't get away from me
Even if you told me to
So go on and try
Just try and you're gonna see
Are you gonna not at all get away from me
Herbie
Rose, I love you, but don't count your chickens...
Rose
Come dance with me!
Herbie
I warn you that I'm no boy-scout
Rose
Relax a while, come dance with me!
Herbie
So don't

think that I'm easy picking...

Rose
The music's so nice...
Herbie
Rose, 'cause I just may someday pick up and pack out!
Rose
Oh, no, you won't
No, not a chance
No argument, shut up and dance!
Herbie
You'll never get away from me
You can find the tallest tree

Momma, God speed and God bless
We're not keeping score
What's one more or less
Oh, Momma, say: yes
And waltz down the hall
While you may
Louise
I'll gladly support you
I'll even escort you...
June
And I'd gladly give you away
Both
Oh,. Momma, get married today!
June
If Momma was married there wouldn't be anymore:
"Let me entertain you, let me make you smile!
I would do some kicks!"
Louise
"I would do some tricks!"
June
Sing out, Louise!
Louise
Smile, baby!
Momma, please take our advice
We aren't The Lunts
June
I'm not Fanny Brice

We got Herbie for brains, we got you for talent

No fix, no fights, no fuse, and no egos...

You Gotta Have A Gimmick

[ Top ]

Mazeppa
You can pull all the stops out
Till they call the cops out
Grind your behind
Till you're bent
But you gotta get a gimmick
If you wanna get ahead!
You can sacrifice your sacral
Working in the back row
Bump in a dump
Till you're dead
But you gotta have a gimmick
If you wanna get ahead
You can hum...You can hum...
You can hum...hum...hum...
That's how Burlesque was born
So I hum...and I hum...
And I hum...hum...hum...
But I do it with a horn...
Once I was a Schlepped
Now I'm Miss Mazzeppa
With my revolution in dance
You gotta have a gimmick
If you wanna have a chance!
Electra
She can hum... She can hum...
She can hum...hum...hum...
They'll never make 'er rich
See, I hum... and I hum...
And I hum...hum...hum...
But I do it with a switch!
I'm electrifying
And I ain't even trying
I never had to sweat to get paid
'Cause if you got a gimmick
Gypsy, you will get it made!
Tessie Tura
All them hum and then hum...
And that hum...hum...hum...
Ain't smell success
Me, I hum... and I hum...
And I hum...hum...hum...
But I do it with finesse...
Lady Tura is so much more then purer
Than all them other ladies because...
You gotta get a gimmick
If you wanna get applause!
ALL
Do something special
Anything special

When you gotta gimmick
Take a look how different we are!
Electra
If you wanna make it,
Twinkle while you shake it
Tura
If you wanna grind it,
Wait till you refined it
Mazeppa
If you wanna stump it,
Bump it with a trumpet!
ALL
Get yourself a gimmick and you too
Can be a star!

Gypsy
Hello! Hello...everybody!
My name is Gypsy Rose Lee... What's yours!
Mr. Conductor, if you please!
So, let me entertain you...
And we'll have a real good time, yes, sir!
We'll have...
A real good time!
M.C.
And now, Minsky's well famous Burlesque
Presents the queen of the strip-tease, the incomparable,
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee and our salutes to the Garden of Eden!
Gypsy
Pick up your apples girls and back to the trees!
Bon soir, monsieur et monsieur!
Je m'appelle Gypsy Rose Lee
And that concludes my entire performance in French,
I've been too busy learning Greek
Where were you last night?
Some men accused me of being an enthusiast
Do you know what that means? Do you?
Do you? Oh, you do!
Aha! He's embarrassed!
Don't be embarrassed... I like man without hair!
An enthusiast is one who or that which
Sheds its skin in vulgar paroles: a stripper
But I'm not a stripper!
At these prices I'm an enthusiast!
And if you're real good
I'll make you feel good
I want you spirit to climb
Let me entertain you
And well have a real good time, yes, sir!
We'll have...
A real good time!

Rose's Turn

[ Top ]

Rose
You haven't any talent
I'd announced of it
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee, I made you
I could do better than any of you
But I gotta leave what I've been holding inside of me
Oh, if I ever let it out
There wouldn't be signs big enough
There wouldn't be lights bright enough
Here she is boys!
Here she is world!
Here's Rose!
Curtain up... Light the lights!
Play it boys!
You either got it or you ain't
And boys I got it, you like it?

Chorus
Yeah!
Rose
Well, I got it
Some people got it and make it pay
Some people can't even give it away
This people's got it and this people's spreading it around
You either have it or you had it
Hello, everybody, my name's Rose, what's yours!
How do you like them egg rolls, Mr. Goldstone?
All you have is some hallelujah
Momma's gotta it show to you!
Ready or not, here comes Momma!
Momma's talking loud
Momma's doing fine
Momma's getting hot
Momma's going strong
Momma's moving on
Momma's all alone
Momma doesn't care
Momma's letting loose
Momma's got the stuff
Momma's letting go
Momma's...er...Momma's...
Momma's got the stuff
Momma's gotta move
Momma's gotta go
Momma's...Momma...
Momma's gotta let go...
Why did I do it?
Why did they get me?
Scrapbooks fold with me in the background
Give them love and what did they get you?
What did they get you?
One quick look and see to them leave you
All you life and what is it get you?
Thanks a lot and out with the garbage
Stage take bows and you're back in zero
I had a dream, I dreamed it for you June,
It wasn't for me, Herbie,
And if it wasn't for me
Where would you be?
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee!
Well, someone tells me
When is it my turn?
Don't I get a dream for myself?
Starting now it's gotta be my turn
Get away rug
And all from my runway
Starting now I bet a thousand
This time boys I'm taking the bows and
Everything's coming up Rose
Everything's coming up roses
Everything's coming up roses
This time for me
For me...For me...For me...
For me...For me...
For me!
[Rose takes the silent bows as Gypsy enters and applauds]

918.
919. Rose
920. I was...trying out for you...New ideas you might wanna use...
921.
922. Gypsy
923. You really would have been something, momma!
924.
925. Rose
926. Do you think so?
927.
928. Gypsy
929. If you had someone to push you like I had...
930.
931. Rose
932. If I could have been...I would have been...
933. And that's show business!
934. I guess I did it for me...
935.
936. Gypsy
937. Why, momma?
938.
939. Rose
940. Just wanted to be noticed...
941.
942. Gypsy
943. Like I wanted you to notice me!
944. I still do, momma!
945. [They embrace each other. Rose cries]
946.
947. Gypsy
948. It's OK, momma! OK, Rose!
949.

964.
965. Gypsy
966. Wear my fur I have a stole in my cabinet.
967.
968. Rose
969. Well, maybe just for an hour or two...Hey, it looks better on
me than it
970. does on you. Funny how we can both wear the same size!
971.
972. Gypsy
973. Specially in mink.
974.
975. Rose
976. You know...I had a dream last night. There was a big poster of
a mother

977. and daughter, like the covers of the ladies magazines...


978.
979. Gypsy
980. Yes, momma!
981.
982. Rose
983. Only it was you and me wearing exactly the same gowns. It was
an add for
984. Minsky, and the headline said: "MADAM ROSE...AND HER DAUGHTER
GYPSY".
985. [They laugh, embrace each other and leave. Rose stops for a
while and
986. take one last look at the stage as if she said good-bye.]
