Legally Blonde Remix

Legally Blonde Remix (audition cut lyrics)

I used to pray for the day you’d leave
Swore up and down you did not belong
But when I’m wrong, then I say I’m wrong
And I was wrong about you

So listen up!

I see no end to what you’ll achieve
That’s only if you don’t turn and run
You’ve proved it to me
Now show everyone what you can do

And you look great in dark blue

Get back in the game
Back on the case
Take a good look at my face
I’m not a fool and as a rule
I do not bond

But I see a star
You’re my new muse
You’ve got the best freaking shoes…!

And you lit a fuse
So go show them who’s
Legally blonde

Yes, you lit a fuse
So go show them who’s
Legally—

Chip on My Shoulder

Chip on My Shoulder (audition cut lyrics)

Guess she got a chip on her shoulder
Maybe some wise man told her
With the chance we’ve been given
We gotta be driven as hell!

She was something to see there
I’m just happy I could be there!

First big test and she aced it
She’s so close, she can taste it!
She got a chip on her shoulder
Guess you never can tell…

With little Miss Woods comma Elle…
No, you never can…tell
With little Miss Woods comma Elle

So Much Better

So Much Better (audition cut lyrics)

I’ll be there on Monday, nine o’clock
And we will see who walks the walk
No, no, I can’t wait, I will be there at eight
When they unlock the door

Oh, oh! I’ll even dress in black and white
See, I have not begun to fight
And you’ll go, oh, much better, hello, much better
And soon all y’all gonna know much better

I am so much better
I am so much better
I am so much better than before…!

SEUssical Audition Cut Choices

Select and prepare one of the three Seussical audition choices shown below.

Monkey Around

Monkey Around (audition cut lyrics)

There’s a rustle in the bushes.
There’s a tremble in the trees.
Hear it like a whisper
Smell it on the summer breeze…

Somethin’ big is getting nearer
Somethin’ big is comin’ through…
Got some monkey business
That’s what we intend to do…

Come on!
I wanna monkey,
Monkey around
Come on!
I gotta monkey
Monkey around
Come on!
We’re gonna monkey
Ooh, we’re gonna monkey around!

Ooh!

Well, it’s bigger than a breadbox
Hey, it’s wider than a whale
Peanut butter breath
And scared to death from head to tail…!

Notice Me, Horton

Notice Me, Horton (audition cut lyrics)

Oh, notice me, Horton, feather by feather.
This is your next-door neighbor calling!
Notice me, Horton
Horton, together
We could be great!

Oh, notice me, Horton
Put down the clover!
This is your next door neighbor calling.
There’s a new leaf
Your neighbor’s turned over

Over and over, Clover by clover…(sing this line as Gertrude, in the upper octave)

(sing Gertrude’s line for the rest of the song)

I was just a no one only yesterday.
You showed up and showed me something more.
Now I’ve become a someone
Who has someone to believe in
And to be there for…

Here on Who

Here on Who (audition cut lyrics)

(Female voices and unchanged male voices: sing this in the upper octave — starting note: A4.
Changed male voices, sing this in the mayor’s octave — starting note: A3.)

Imagine a place that is tidy
And totally clean,
Who…

Where even a Grinch wouldn’t dare to be totally mean!
Who…

You think that it’s heaven on earth
Yes, you do!
But heaven on earth isn’t heaven on Who!
Troubles on Who
Are the biggest that you’ve ever seen.

We’re on the brink of war, they say
We’re going to war, and oh my!
‘Cause if we do, then here on Who
Well, you can kiss Whoville goodbye!

Our skies are unbearably dark
And war is unbearably near…
And that’s not the end of our troubles
Here…
