Dreamgirls: Fake Your Way To The Top

''[Jimmy]''
Thirteen years of solid gold platters,
Rising costs and cocktail chatter,
Fat deejays, stereophonic sound,
The game of hits goes 'round and around,
But you can fake your way to the top,
'Round and around, ''Try that part baby'',

''[Lorrell]''
'Round and around

''[Jimmy]''
Fake your way to the top,

''[Deena]''
'Round and around

''[Jimmy]''
''You fit right in there sweetheart!''
You can fake your way to the top

''[Effie]''
'Round and around

''[Jimmy]''
''I knew you'd have it!''
But it's always real, so real

''[Dreamettes]''
Always so real

'Round and around and 'round and around

A man gets lonely (Doo, doot, doo doo)
Workin' hard on the road (Doo, doot, doo doo)
He's away from his woman (Doo, doot, doo doo)
It's a heavy load (Doo, doot, doo doo)

''[Dreamettes]''
Doo, doot, doo doo

''[Jimmy]''
''Time to bring up the lights! Yeah!
Let's see which one of these girls goin' home with Jimmy tonight
I got a nice, warm, bed watin' on ya
Alright now, c'mon now, who wants to sit on daddy's lap?
Break it down!''
