Move (Jennifer Hudson, Beyoncé Knowles, Anika Noni Rose)
Move, move!
Move right out of my life!
Move, move!
Move right out of my life!
[EFFIE WHITE (LORRELL
ROBINSON AND DEENA JONES):]
You better move (Move!)
You’re steppin’ on my heart
I said move (Move)
You’re tearing it apart,
please move! (Please move)
Ohhh, what am I gonna
do, my heart (My heart)
Ooh, breaking breaking up over you
(Breaking, breaking up over you!)
You’ve got such magnetic power
That just keeps holding me down (Oooh)
I feel just like a flower
That you keep stomping the ground
[DREAMETTES:] Move, move!
Move right out of my life!
Move it, move it!
Out of my life!
Move, move!
Move right out of my life!
Move it, move it!

Move right out of my life!
[EFFIE WHITE (LORRELL
ROBINSON AND DEENA JONES):]
You are so horribly Satanic
The way you lead me around (Oooh)
I feel just like the Titanic (Ohhhhh)
I’m always going down, down, down, down!
(Move, move, you’re
steppin’ on my style)
You’re steppin’ on my style!
(Move, move, I wanna
breathe for a while)
Ohh, please move, I wanna

Ohh, baby!
(Move it, move it, outta my life)
Ohh, baby!

Get outta my life!
(Move it, move it, outta my life)
There’s too much pain and strife
So why don’t you pack it
up and move it, (Move)
Take the cat, kit, and caboodle (Move)
Your broken down car (Move)
Your old smelly cigar (Move)
And just move right outta
my (Move, move, move)
Move right outta my life!
(Move right outta my life!)
[DREAMETTES:] Please
move, move, move, move,
Please move, move, move, move…

It's All Over (Foxx, Hudson, Knowles, Rose, Robinson, Sharon Leal)
Effie, Curtis was supposed to…
Love me!
Curtis was supposed to love me.
There you are, Effie, I’ve been lookin’ all over.
I turn my back, and find myself out on the line.
You could have warned me, but that would have been too kind.
I’ve been warning you for months to clean up your act.
You’ve been late, you’ve been mean, givin’ all kinds of flack.
That’s a lie!
That’s a lie.
It’s just I haven’t been feeling that well.
Effie, please.
Stop excusin’ yourself.
You’ve been late, you’ve been mean, and gettin’ fatter all the time.
Now you’re lyin’, you’re lyin’, I’ve never been so thin.
You’re lyin’, you’re lyin’, ’cause you’re knockin’ off that piece who thinks she’s better than everybody.
She ain’t better than anybody.
She ain’t nothin’ but common.
Now, who you callin’ common, you’re self indulgent, self absorbed and un professional.
You!
I’m callin’ you…
I’m callin’ you the common piece he’s knockin’ off.
Now you listen to me, miss blame it on the world.
See, I’ve put up with you for much too long.
I have put up with your b****ing.
I’ve put up with your nagging, and all your screamin’ too.
Oh, now when are you two gonna stop all this fighting?
Stay out of this, Lorrell, this is between Deena and me.
Yeah?
Well, it’s between me, too.
I’m as much a part of this group as anybody else.
And I’m tired, Effie, I’m tired of all the problems you’re makin’ us.
I always knew you two were together.
What!?
I always knew you two were gangin’ up on me.
She had nothing to do with this change, it was you.
It was you, always thinkin’ of you.
Always thinkin’ of you!
I knew you were trouble from the start.
Trouble?
You were real bad trouble from the start.
Curtis, I’m your woman!
But you’re getting out now, I’m not building this group to have you tear it apart.
Go ahead and rant and scream and shout!
Don’t worry baby, I’ll buy you out.
There’s no money dirty enough to buy me out.
You remember that, Curtis.
Lay off Effie, just take the money and run.
You in this with them, C.C.?
Cool it, Effie.
This time you know what you’ve done!
So they got your black a** too, huh?
I said cool it, Effie.
This time you’ve gone too far.
Oh I can go further, I can go further!
I don’t want to stay around this.
I’m just breakin’ into this business.
This is between all of you.
This is none of my affair.
Yeah, well it’s between you too, now little sister.
This snow job is as much your sin.
Look at me.
Look at me.
How much did you put out to get in?
Now you watch your mouth, watch your mouth, miss Effie White.
‘Cause I don’t take that tone from no second rate Diva who can’t sustain.
I’m not feelin’ well, I got pain.
Effie, we all got pain.
Oh, for seven years I sung with you, I was your sister.
You were trouble.
And now you’re tellin’ me it’s all over.
And now we’re tellin’ you it’s all over!
And now I’m tellin’ you I ain’t goin’.
It’s all over.
I ain’t goin’.
It’s all over.
And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going (Hudson)
And I am tellin’ you
I’m not goin’.
You’re the best man
I’ll ever know,
there’s no way
I can ever go.
No, no there’s no way,
no, no, no, no way
I’m livin’ without you.
I’m not livin’
without you.
I don’t wanna be free,
I’m stayin’,
I’m stayin’, and you, and you…
You’re gonna love me, ooh.
You’re gonna love me.
And I am tellin’ you,
I’m not going.
Even though there are times I’m showing,
there’s just no way, there’s no way.
We’re part of the same place,
we’re part of the same time.
We both share the same blood,
we both have the same mind.
And time and time, we’ve had so much to share.
No, no, no, no, no way,
I’m not wakin’ up tomorrow mornin’ and findin’ that there’s nobody there.
Darlin’, there’s no way.
No, no, no, no way I’m livin’ without you.
I’m not livin’ without you,
you see there’s just
no way, there’s no way.
Please don’t go away from me,
stay with me,
stay with me.
Stay, stay and hold me, ah yeah.
Stay, stay and hold me, ooh.
Please stay and hold me.
Listen man,
try it mister, try it mister.
I know, I know, I know you can!
Tear down the mountain, y’all scream and shout,
you can say what you want, I’m not walkin’ out.
Stop all the rivers, push, strike and kill,
I’m not gonna leave you, there’s no way I will!
And I am tellin’ you.
Oh ah, I’m not goin’.
You’re the best man I’ll ever know.
There’s no way I could ever, ever go.
No, no, there’s no way,
no, no, no, no way I’m livin’ without you.
I’m not livin’ without you,
not livin’ without you.
I don’t wanna be free,
oh, oh, I’m stayin’
I’m stayin’.
And you,
and you,
and you,
you’re gonna love me, ooh, oh yeah!
You’re gonna love me,
yes you are,
yes you are.
Ooh!
Love me,
love me,
love me.
Love…
You’re gonna love …
Me!
When I First Saw You (Foxx)
When I first saw you, I said “Oh my”
that’s my dream.
that’s my dream”
I needed a dream when
it all seemed to go bad
Then I found you and I have
had the most beautiful dreams
Any man’s ever had
When I first saw you, I said “oh my,
that’s my dream, that’s my dream”
I needed a dream to make me strong
You are the only reason I had to go on
You were my dream,
all of the things I never knew
You were my dream who could
believe they could ever come true
And who would believe, the world
would believe in my dreams too.
When I first saw you, I said “oh my
that’s my dream, that’s my dream”
I needed a dream to make me strong
You are the only reason I had to go on
You were my dream,
all of the things I never knew
You are my dream who could
believe they could ever come true
And who would believe, the world
would believe in my dreams too.
Before you appeared,
Life was only a game.
And day in,
And day out,
Were the same.
Now the dream’s
Coming true
Like a star
See it shine.
A dream
That is yours
That is mine
You were my dream
(Now I’ve got dreams of my own)
All the things I could never be
(Dreams that you’d never know)
You won’t take my dream from me
When I first saw you,
I said “oh my”
I said “oh my”
“that’s my dream.”
Patience (Murphy, Robinson, Rose)
I know you have questions
Same ones as me
How long has it been?
How long will it be?
When will come the morning
To drive the night away?
When will come the morning
Of a brighter day?
Patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Patience, patience
Take each other by the hand
Patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Let us walk together
To the Promised Land
There’s a river to cross
And a mountain to climb
Patience, patience
It’s gonna take some time
We must walk in peace
It’s the only way
If we want to see the morning
Of a brighter day
Patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Patience, patience
We’re gonna find a way
Patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Until the morning
Of a brighter day, hey
Patience, patience
‘Til that brighter day
Patience, patience
‘Til that brighter day
I Am Changing (Hudson)
Look at me, look at me
I am changing, trying every way I can
I am changing, I’ll be better than I am
I’m trying to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need
you, I need a hand
I am changing, seeing
everything so clear
I am changing, I’m gonna
start right now, right here
I’m hoping to work it out
and I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand
All my life, I’ve been a fool
Who said I can do it all alone
How many good friends
have I already lost
How many dark nights have I known
Walking down that wrong road
There was nothing I could find
All those years of darkness
Can make a person blind
but now I can see
I am changing, trying every way I can
I am changing, I would
be better than I am
But I need a friend to help
me start all over again
Oh, that would be just fine
I know it’s gonna work out this time
‘Cause this time I am, this time I am
I am changing, I get
my life together now
I am changing, yes, I know how
I’m gonna start again, I’m
gonna leave my past behind
I’ll change my life, I’ll make a vow
And nothings gonna stop me now
I Meant You No Harm/Jimmy's Rap (Murphy)
I meant you no harm
I never meant to make you cry
You were the only one I’ve
ever loved in my life
And though its hard for me to show it
I have to let you know it
Cuz darling I love you more each day
But the words got in my way
Oh I meant you no harm
And I would die
If you ever said goodbye
I love you, I love you
I meant you no harm
I never never meant to make you cry
You are the only one I’ll
ever love in my life

One Night Only (Hudson)
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my love and soul,
right on the line
I have no doubt that I
could love you, forever
The only trouble is, you
really don’t have the time
You’ve got one night only,
one night only
That’s all you have to spare
One night only
Let’s not pretend to care
One night only, one night only
Come on, big baby, come on
One night only
We only have ’til dawn
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my love and soul,
right on the line
I have no doubt that I
could love you, forever
The only trouble is, you
really don’t have the time
You’ve got one night only,
one night only
That’s all you have to spare
One night only
Let’s not pretend to care
One night only, one night only
Come on, big baby, come on
One night only
We only have ’til dawn
One night only
Listen (Knowles)
Listen
To the song here in my heart
A melody I start, but can’t complete
Listen
To the sound from deep within
It’s only beginning to find release
Oh, the time has come for
my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own, all
’cause you won’t listen…
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I’m not at home in my own home
And I tried and tried to
say what’s on my mind
You should have known
Oh, now I’m done believin’ you
You don’t know what I’m feelin’
I’m more than what
you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
And now I’ve gotta find
my own
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I thought had died
So long ago
Oh, I’m screamin’ out and
my dreams will be heard
They will not be pushed aside or worse
Into your own, all
’cause you won’t listen
Listen
I am alone at a crossroads
I’m not at home in my own home
And I tried and tried to
say what’s on my mind
You should have known
Oh, now I’m done believin’ you
You don’t know what I’m feelin’
I’m more than what
you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I’ve gotta find my own
I don’t know where I belong
But I’ll be moving on
If you don’t….
if you won’t.
Listen
To the song here in my heart
A melody I start, but I will complete
Oh, now I’m done believin’ you
You don’t know what I’m feelin’
I’m more than what
you made of me
I followed the voice you
think you gave to me
But now I gotta find my own
My own…
Hard to Say Goodbye (Knowles, Leal, Rose)
We didn’t make forever
We each got to go our separate way
And now we’re standing here, helpless
Looking for something to say
We’ve been together a long time
We never thought it would end
We were always so close to each other
You were always my friend
And it’s hard to say good-bye, my love
Hard to see you cry, my love
Hard to open up that door
When you’re not sure
what you’re going for
We didn’t want this to happen
But we shouldn’t feel sad
We had a good life together
Just remember
(remember)
all the times we had
It’s not that I don’t love you deeply
You were my family
And it’s just that I’m
feeling there’s so much more
Waiting out there for you and me
But it’s hard to say good-bye, my love
Hard to see you cry, my love
Hard to open up that door
When you’re not sure
what you’re going for
You know I’ll always love you
You know I’ll always care
And no matter how far I may go
In my thoughts
You’ll always be there
(It’s so hard) Hard to
say good-bye, my love
(Baby, it’s hard) Hard
to see you cry, my love
(It’s hard) Hard to open up that door
When you’re not sure
what you’re going for
(It’s so hard)
Good-bye my love
(Baby, it’s so hard)
We didn’t make forever
(It’s so hard)
I can feel there’s something more
(When you’re not sure
what you’re going for)
We’ve got to grow
We’ve got to try
Though it’s hard, so hard
We have to say good-bye
Though it’s hard, so hard
We have to say…
We didn’t make forever
How could we lose tomorrow?
We didn’t make forever
How could we lose tomorrow?
