Martin Scorsese - Raging Bull Scene 5 lyrics

INT. WORTH STREET BASEMENT - DAY [TONY JANIRO, wearing boxer trunks, steps off the scale. Commissioner COL. EDDIE EAGAN, a white-haired, heavyset man in his mid-forties, calls out the weight.] [The basement of the New York Boxing Commission on Worth Street is a sparse room, crowded with REPORTERS, TRAINERS and MANAGERS.] EAGAN: Tony Janiro, 151 lbs. and one half. [JAKE steps on the scale. He looks weak and woozy. After the customary adjustments, EAGAN calls out:] EAGAN: Jake LaMotta, 155 lbs. and one fourth. [There's a commotion in JAKE's camp. JANIRO smiles.] JAKE: Just a minute. [JAKE, JOEY, and TONY confer.] [JAKE gets off the scale and enters the men's room. An OFFICIAL follows him.] CUT TO: INT. THE MEN'S ROOM [JAKE forces himself to urinate.] CUT TO: INT. WORTH STREET BASEMENT [JAKE comes out of the bathroom, and gets back on the scale.] EAGAN: Ok. This is official. [LAMOTTA stares at JANIRO.] EAGAN: LaMotta, 155 lbs. on the nose. [JAKE throws JANIRO a kiss.] CUT TO: INT. MADISON SQUARE GARDEN - NIGHT [It's the last round and JAKE is pouring it on a beaten and virtually helpless JANIRO. [The CROWD chants:] CROWD: LaMotta. [HALF THE AUDIENCE is already on its feet. The k** is imminent -- and they love it.] [JAKE lands one blow after another. He is relentless.] [Several rows back, TOMMY COMO, SALVY and SEVERAL OTHER "MADE" GUYS sit with sober looks on their faces.] [JAKE moves in fast, and with a powerful barrage, smashes JANIRO's nose -- plastering it against his left cheek.] [The final bell rings. JANIRO, his legs all rubber, staggers back to his corner.] [JAKE prances about, kissing his fists and throwing them to the CROWD. JOEY rushes out, throws JAKE's leopard skin robe over him and embraces him. TONY follows. JAKE looks right at COMO and SALVY.] [AN ANNOUNCER steps into the center of the ring:] ANNOUNCER: The winner, by unanimous decision, in ten rounds, Jake LaMotta! JOEY: I love you. [JAKE, weak from losing the weight and winning the fight, still manages to prance around the ring victoriously.] [VICKIE, now near the ring, throws kisses to JAKE.] JAKE: *shouts to Vickie* This is my night! Listen to them! I'm gonna be champ! [He bends down and gives her a kiss through the ropes.] JAKE: I'm making everything up to you.
