Annie - Let's Go To The Movies lyrics

Grace: Cowboy heroes, cops and robbers, glam our and strife, bigger than life! Sitting in the darkness, what a world to see! Let's go to the movies, Annie, wait and see. Betty Davis is probably lying, and Greta Garbo is probably crying, while Robert Taylor is locked in her dying embrace. Chico and Groucho and Chaplin and Lloyd are all super. Sweet Mickey Mouse, Shirley Temple, and dear Jackie Cooper. Annie: Let's go to the movies.. Both: Let's go see the stars Grace: Fred and Ginger spinning madly.... (instrumental break) Anything you can imagine... Songs and romance. Life is the dance. Sitting in the darkness, popcorn on your knee! Give the maid the night off! Warbucks: Turn the kitchen light off! Grace and Warbucks: Let's go to the movies, Annie, you and me! Ushers: Welcome to the movies! Welcome to the stars! Welcome to this grand illusion. All of it's yours right through these doors! Every plot's a dilly, this we guarantee! Welcome to the movies wait and see. Female chorus: Let's go to the movies (see the movies) Let's go see the stars. Red lights holler deep Depression What do we care? Movies are there! Only happy endings (boy gets girl, yes) that's our recipe! Welcome to a lovely M-O-V-I-E! Male chorus: Let's go to the movies Female chorus (same time as guys): We love to go to RKO Columbia Universal Male chorus: Let's go see the stars Female chorus (simultaneously): Jack Warner and Fred Goldwyn and MGM and Paramount Both: Dreams of glory, cast of thousands, bigger than life. Bigger than life! Only happy endings that's our recipe So, welcome to the movies wait... and... see!
