Moving Uptown lyrics
Moving Uptown
Dolores:
Gentlemen:
You are looking at a woman who invented ‘The Walk’.
You know ‘The Walk.’
I invented that you are looking at a female
who has driven men to homicide
How’ Must you ask’
Look at these beautiful legs
These legs were built to drive men mad-
would you like to dance’
But first-
I hear you’re moving uptown
I’ll move with you
I hear your taking talent
Talent I do. I do
I’ve headlined with the best
I can still pack them in
You need help moving uptown!
I know the way cuz I’ve already been’
When you look around the room- look’
Tell me what do you see
Imitations of imitations
I invented myself!
I’m a creature who sacrificed love for her art
Why, you may ask
With these smoldering lips:
Do you know what it’s like to kiss
such smoldering lips’
Would you like to find out’
But first:
I hear you’re movin’ uptown
Let’s go, you lead
I’m ready for the big times
That’s what I need, I need
I need to return to the place
Where I used to belong
I hear you’re moving uptown
Gold
Well, Miss Montoya-
Dolores
Dolores
Gold
Dolores. It’s early in the game. Who can
tell’ Lots of details to be worked out.
Goldberg
Lots.
Gold
Lots
(confidentially)
Which is exactly what it feel like.
Lot’s wife. And she is Sodom and Gomorrah incarnate.
Goldberg
Then don’t turn around. Don’t look back.
(they look back)
Dolores
I hear you’re taking me a long
I hear you’re taking me
You’re taking me, you’re taking me, you’re
Taking me
Along!
