HARVEY KEITEL: Miss Third Ward, your first question: what is your aspiration in life?
BEYONCÉ: Oh, my aspiration in life would be... to be happy.
Huh uh huh
Huh uh huh
Huh uh huh
Mama said you're a pretty girl
What's in your head–it doesn't matter
Brush your hair, fix your teeth
What you wear is all that matters
Just another stage
Pageant the pain away
This time, I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down, down
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
Huh uh huh
Blonder hair, flat chest
TV says bigger is better
South Beach, sugar free
Vogue says thinner is better
Just another stage
Pageant the pain away
This time, I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down, down
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
Ain't got no doctor or pill that can take the pain away
The pain's inside and nobody frees you from your body
It's my soul, it's my soul that needs surgery
It's my soul that needs surgery
Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far
Then you break when the fake façade leaves in you in the dark
Left with shattered mirrors and the shards of a beautiful past
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation
Pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts
We shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something, but you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
When you're alone all by yourself (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
When you're lying in your bed (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Reflection stares right into you (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
You strip away the masquerade (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
The illusion has been shed (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are you happy with yourself? (Pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Yes (Huh uh huh)
2. Haunted
HOST: The winner is... Beyonce Knowles female pop vocalist!
BEYONCÉ: I would like to thank the judges for picking me,
My parents who I love. I love you Houston.
And I've been drifting off on knowledge
Cat-calls on cat-walks, man, these women getting solemn
I could sing a psalm for a Solomon or Salamander
We took a flight at midnight and now my mind can't help but wander
How come?
Spoon-fed pluralized eyes to find the beaches in the forest
When I'm looking off the edge, I preach my gut it can't help ignore it
I'm climbing up the walls 'cause all the **** I hear is boring
All the **** I do is boring, all these record labels boring
I don't trust these record labels, I'm touring
All these people on the planet working 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive, the 9 to 5, just to stay alive
Then 9 to 5, just to stay alive, then the 9 to 5, just to stay alive
The 9 to 5, just to stay alive, the 9 to 5, just to stay alive
All the people on the planet working 9 to 5 just to stay alive
How come?
What goes up, ghost around
Ghost arou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
What goes up, ghost around
Ghost arou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
Rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound, rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
Rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound, rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
Rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound, rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
Rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound, rou-oo-ou-oou-ou-oo-ound
Soul not for sale
Probably won't make no money off this, oh well
Reap what you sow
Perfection is so... umh
It's what you do, it's what you see
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
It's where we go, it's where we'll be
I know if I'm on to you, I'm on to you
On to you, you must be on to me
My haunted lungs, ghost in the sheets
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
My wicked tongue, where will it be?
I know if I'm onto you, I'm on to you
On to you, I'm on to you
On to you, you must be on to me
You want me? I walk down the hallway
You lucky? The bedroom's my runway
Slap me! I'm pinned to the doorway
Kiss, bite, foreplay
My haunted lungs, ghost in the sheets
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
My wicked tongue, where will it be?
I know if I'm onto you, you must be onto me
It's what we see
I know if I'm haunting you, you must be haunting me
It's where we go, It's where we'll be
I know if I'm onto you, I'm onto you
Onto you, I'm onto you
Onto you, you must be onto me
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
You must be onto me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
Me (on to you, I'm on to you)
3. Drunk In Love (feat. Jay-Z)
I've been drankin', I've been drankin'
I get filthy when that liquor get into me
I've been thinkin', I've been thinkin'
Why can't I keep my fingers off you?
Baby, I want you, na na
Why can't I keep my fingers off you?
Baby, I want you, na na
Cigars on ice, cigars on ice
Feeling like an animal with these cameras all in my grill
Flashing lights, flashing lights
You got me faded, faded, faded
Baby, I want you, na na
Can't keep your eyes off my fatty
Daddy, I want you, na na
Drunk in love, I want you
We woke up in the kitchen saying
"How the hell did this **** happen?"
Oh baby, drunk in love, we be all night
Last thing I remember is our beautiful bodies grinding off in that club
Drunk in love, we be all night, love, love
We be all night, love, love
We be all night, and everything's alright
No complaints from my body, so fluorescent under these lights
Boy, I'm drankin', park it in my lot 7-11
I’m rubbin' on it, rub-rubbin', if you scared, call that reverend
Boy, I'm drankin', get my brain right
Armand de Brignac, gangster wife
Louie sheets, he sweat it out; like washrags, he wear it out
Boy, I'm drankin', I'm sangin' on the mic 'til my voice's horse
Then I fill the tub up halfway, then ride it with my surfboard
Surfboard, surfboard
Grainin' on that wood, grainin', grainin' on that wood
I'm swervin' on that, swervin', swervin' on that big body
Been servin' all this, swerve, surfin' all in this good, good
We woke up in the kitchen saying
"How the hell did this **** happen?"
Oh baby, drunk in love, we be all night
Last thing I remember is our beautiful bodies grinding off in that club
Drunk in love, we be all night, love, love
We be all night, love, love
Hold up, I do say yous the ****, if I do say so myself
If I do say so myself, if I do say so myself
Hold up, stumble all in the house, time to backup all of that mouth
That you had all in the car, talking 'bout you the baddest bitch thus far
Talking 'bout you be repping that 3rd, wanna see all that **** that I heard
Know I sling Clint Eastwood, hope you can handle this curve
Foreplay in a foyer, ****ed up my Warhol
Slid the panties right to the side, ain't got the time to take draws off
On site, catch a charge I might
Beat the box up like Mike in '97 I bite,
I'm Ike Turner, turn up, baby no I don't play
Now eat the cake, Anna Mae, said, "Eat the cake, Anna Mae!"
I'm nice, for y'all to reach these heights,
We gon' need G3, 4, 5, 6 flights
Sleep tight, we sex again in the morning
Your breasteses is my breakfast, we going in
We be all night, love, love
We be all night, love, love
I'm never tired, never tired
I been sippin', that's the only thing that's
Keeping me on fire, me on fire
Didn't mean to spill that liquor all on my attire
I've been drankin' watermelon
I want your body right here
Daddy, I want you, right now
Can't keep ya eyes off my fatty
Daddy, I want you
We be all night, love, love
We be all night, love, love

5. No Angel
Baby, put your arms around me, tell me I'm the problem
No, I'm not the girl you thought you knew and that you wanted
Underneath the pretty face is something complicated
I come with a side of trouble, but I know that's why you're staying
Because you're no angel either, baby
'Cause you're no angel either, baby
No, I'm not an angel either, but at least I'm trying
I know I drive you crazy, but would you rather that I be a machine
Who doesn't notice when you're late or when you're lying?
I love you even more than who I thought you were before
'Cause you're no angel either, baby
'Cause you're no angel either, baby
'Cause you're no angel either, baby
'Cause you're no angel either, baby, oh
Tell me, do you want to ride?
Tell me, do you want to ride?
Ride around, ride around
Ride around, we ride around in that H-town
If there's candles in your bed, no need for a spell
Stop acting so scared, just do what I tell
First go through my legs, go back on your head
And whatever you want, yeah baby, I'll bet it comes true
Baby, put your arms around me, tell me I'm the problem
No, I'm not the girl you thought you knew and that you wanted
Underneath the pretty face is something complicated
I come with a side of trouble, but I know that's why you're staying
Because you're no angel either, baby
'Cause you're no angel either, baby
You're no angel either, baby
No, no, no, no; No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no; No, no, no, no
N-no, no, no, no; N-no, no, no, no
N-no, no, no, no; N-no, no, no, no...
6. Partition
Lemme hear you say "Hey, Mrs. Carter!"
Say "Heeey, Mrs. Carter!"
Give me some!
See me up in the club with fifty of them girls
Posted in the back, got my things in my grill
Brooklyn brim with my eyes sitting low
Every boy in here with me got that smoke
Every girl in here gotta look me up and down
All on Instagram, cake by the pound
Circulate the image every time I come around
G's up, tell me how I'm looking, babe
Boy, this all for you, just walk my way
Just tell me how it's looking, babe
Just tell me how it's looking, babe
I do this all for you, baby, just take aim
And tell me how it's looking, babe
And tell me how it's looking, babe, looking, babe
Drop the bass, mane, the bass gets lower
Radio say "Speed it up"; I just go slower
High like treble, pumping on the mids
Ya man ain't ever seen a booty like this
And why you think ya keep my name rolling off your tongue?
'Cause when he wanna smash, I'll just write another one
I sneezed on the beat, and the beat got sicker
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Li-like liquor, li-li-like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Li-like liquor, li-li-like liquor
Driver, roll up the partition, please
Driver, roll up the partition, please
I don't need you seeing Yoncé on her knees
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gon' make it to this club
Now my mascara's running, red lipstick's smudged
Oh, he so horny, yeah, he want to ****
He popped all my buttons, and he ripped my blouse
He Monica Lewinsky'd all on my gown
"Whoa there, Daddy, Daddy didn't bring the towel!
"Whoa baby, baby Bey, better slow it down!"
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
And we ain't even gon' make it to this club
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kind of girl you like (girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me
Driver, roll up the partition fast
Driver, roll up the partition fast
Over there, I swear I saw them cameras flash
Handprints and footprints on my glass
Handprints and good grips all on my ass
Private show with the music blasting
He like to call me Peaches when we get this nasty
Red wine drip, filth, talk that trash
Chauffeur eavesdroppin', tryin' not to crash
Whoa there, Daddy, Daddy, now you ripped my sew
Whoa baby, baby be sweatin' out my hair
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gonna make it to this club
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kind of girl you like (girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me
Est-ce que tu aimes le sexe?
Le sexe, je veux dire l'activité physique, le coït?
Tu aimes ça? Tu ne t'intéresses pas au sexe?
Les hommes pensent que les féministes détestent le sexe.
Mais c'est une activité très stimulante et naturelle que les femmes adorent.
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kind of girl you like (girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me
7. Jealous
I'm in my penthouse half-naked
I cooked this meal for you naked
So where the hell you at?
Just one shot left of this drink in this glass, don't make me break it
I wish that you were me so you could feel this feeling
I never broke one promise, and I know when you're not honest
Now you got me yelling, that's because I'm jealous
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh, I'm jealous
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Ooh ooh, I'm jealous
Sometimes, I want to walk in your shoes
Do the type of things that I never ever do
So I take one look in the mirror, and I say to myself,
"Baby girl, you can't survive like this"
Take it one step further, freakum dress out my closet
Beyoncé fillin' out this skirt, I look damn good, I ain't lost it
And I ain't missed a beat
Boy you been hanging out tonight, I'm staying out 'til tomorrow
Been dancing on them tables, ain't got no cares, no sorrows
I ran into my ex, said "What up?" to his besties
Now we reminiscing how we used to flex in Texas
Don't be jealous
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Are you jealous?
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Are you jealous?
Sometimes, I want to walk in your shoes
Do the type of things that I never ever do
So I take one look in the mirror, and I say to myself,
"Baby girl, you can't survive like this"
And I hate you for your lies and your covers
And I hate us for making good love to each other
And I love making you jealous, but don't judge me
And I know that I'm being hateful, but that ain't nothing
That ain't nothing, I'm just jealous, I'm just human
Don't judge me, don't judge me
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh, I'm jealous
If you're keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Let me sit this ass on you, show you how I feel
Let me take this off, will you watch me?
Yes, mass appeal
Don't take your eyes, don't take your eyes off it
Watch it, babe
If you like, you can touch it, baby
Do you, do you wanna touch it, baby?
Grab ahold, don't let go, let me know that you're ready
I just wanna show you now, slow it down, go around
You rock hard, I rock steady
And rock right up to the side of my mountain
Climb until you reach my peak, baby, peak, baby, peak
And reach right into the bottom of my fountain
I wanna play in your deep, baby, deep, baby, deep
Then dip me under where you can feel my river flow and flow
Hold me 'til I scream for air to breathe
Now wash me over until my well runs dry
Send all your sins all over me baby, me, baby, me
Rock it 'til water falls, rock it 'til water falls
Rock it 'til water falls, bathe in these waterfalls
I do it like it's my profession, I gotta make a confession
I'm proud of all this bass, baby, I put it in your face
By the way, if you need a personal trainer or a therapist
I can be your piece of sunshine, inner peace, entertainer
Anything else that you may read between the lines
You and I create rockets and waterfalls
So rock right up to the side of my mountain
Climb until you reach my peak, baby, peak, baby, peak
And reach right into the bottom of my fountain
I wanna play in your deep, baby, deep, baby, deep
Then dip me under where you can feel my river flow and flow
Hold me 'til I scream for air to breathe
And wash me over until my well runs dry
Send all your sins all over me baby, me, baby, me
Rock it 'til water falls, rock it 'til water falls
Rock it 'til water falls, bathe in these waterfalls
Hard, rock steady, rock, hard rock, steady
Rock hard, rock steady, rock, hard rock, steady
Don't you know that I give you good loving if you need it
I give you my word, you can believe it
Your love feels like all four seasons
Growing inside me, life has a reason
Swimming in my love, your love is lifting
Higher, harder, got me screaming to the lord
Boy, kiss me, pray we don't overflow
Baby I know you can feel it pulse, keeping the peak of my waterfall
Rock it, baby, rock it, baby, rock it 'til the water falls down
Damn, and I can't help but love the way we make love
Daddy, daddy, ooh child, ooh now
Yes lord, damn baby, driving me cray cray
You ain't right for doing it to me like that, daddy,
Even though I've been a bad, bad, bad, bad,
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad girl
Tell me, what you're gonna do about that?
Punish me, please, punish me, please
Daddy, what you're going to do with all of this ass
All up in your face?
Yeah, hell yeah, ride it so deep
Ooh my ****'s so good, it ain't even right
I know I'm right, hell yeah, you the ****
That's why you're my equivalent, so sexy
We're so much more than pointless fixtures, Instagram pictures
Consumers, what about that ching-ching-ching?
What about that, what about that ching-ching?
Baby boomers, cyclical trends
Tryna fit in, home is where the heart is
Goddamnit, I'm comfortable in my skin
And you're comfortable in my skin
You look so comfortable in my skin
Rockets and waterfalls
9. Mine (feat. Drake)
Uh, I've been watching for the signs, took a trip to clear my mind, oh
Now I'm even more lost, and you're still so fine, oh my, oh my
Been having conversations about breakups and separations
I'm not feeling like myself since the baby, are we gonna even make it?
Oh, 'cause if we are, we're taking this a little too far
If we are, we're taking this a little too far
Baby, if we are, we're taking this a little too far
With me being wherever I'm at, worried about wherever you are
We're taking this a little too far
We're taking this a little too far
We're taking this a little too far
Know you wanna roll with a good girl
Do it big do it all for a good girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Don’t sleep when you know you got it good, girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should
Wassup?
On my mind, up past my bedtime, no rest at the kingdom
Alone in my place, my heart is away
All that I can think of is: we should get married, we should get married
Let's stop holding back on this and let's get carried away
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
'Cause I got big deals and I got little things
Got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away, come right now, you know where I stay
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
**** what you heard, you're mine, you're mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
**** what you heard, you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to
Know you wanna roll with a good girl
Do it big do it all for a good girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Don’t sleep when you know you got it good, girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl?
One time, this is a song for the good girl
And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should
Wassup?
From 8 until late, I think ‘bout you
You own my nights, I don’t know what to do
I can't get no rest, can't get no sleep
This whole thing got way too deep and we should
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
'Cause I got big deals and I got little things
Got everything I'm asking for but you
Stop making a big deal out of the little things
Let's get carried away, come right now, you know where I stay
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
**** what you heard, you're mine, you're mine
All I'm really asking for is you
You're mine, you're mine
I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine
**** what you heard, you're mine, you're mine
As long as you know who you belong to
Do you wanna roll with a good girl?
Do it big do it all for a good girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Don’t sleep when you know you got it good, girl
One time, this is a song for the good girl
Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl?
One time, this is a song for the good girl
And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should
Wassup?
All I'm really asking for is you
Long as you know who you belong to
I gotta pull up on you, you gon' make me have to pull up on you
Don’t go ghost on me I'ma to go thriller on you, I'ma just
I'ma let my hands do the talking when I see you, baby girl
I miss feeling on you, I miss everything that's real about you
And that's everything about you, that's just how I feel about you
I been about you and I’m still about you
But we ain't finished talking
I told you you don’t need to worry about them bitches
All them fives need to listen when the ten is talking
'Cause they don’t wanna see you happier than them
And girl you swear they are your friends and that's been a problem
You the one they hate, just come with that
I know you think its funny that your ex is not a running back
But that ***** came running back
And you tell me that you’re done with that
And I believe its true as long as you know who you belong to
All I’m really asking for is you
Long as you know who you belong to

ADICHIE: We teach girls to shrink themselves to make themselves smaller.
We say to girls, ‘You can have ambition but not too much.
You should aim to be successful but not too successful
Otherwise you will threaten the man.’
Because I am female I am expected to aspire to marriage.
I am expected to make my life choices
Always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important.
That marriage can be a source of joy and love and mutual support,
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage
And we don’t teach boys the same?
We raise girls to see each other as competitors,
Not for jobs or for accomplishments, which I think can be a good thing,
But for the attention of men.
We teach girls that they can not be sexual beings in the way that boys are.
Feminist: A person who believes in the social, political
And economic equality of the sexes.
You wake up—flawless; post up—flawless
Ridin' round in it—flawless; flossin' on that—flawless

12. Superpower (feat. Frank Ocean)
When the palm of my two hands hold each other
That feels different from when your hands are in mine
That's just the way it is
And when my voice is screaming out to my own ears
That feels different from when I hear yours
Now that's just the way it is
And when I'm standing in this mirror after all these years
What I'm viewing is a little different from what your eyes show you
I guess I didn't see myself before you
Moving forward
Superpower, a subtle power
Superpower, a tough love
Superpower, uh huh, like a shark
Superpower, ooh, like a bear, a tough love
And I thought the world would revolve
Without us, without us, without us
But nothing I know could slow us down
Couldn't slow us down
And I thought I could live without you, hey, hey
'Cause nothing I know that can break us down
They can't break us down
And just like you I can't be scared, just like you I hope I'm spared
But it's tough love
I know you feel it in the air, even the babies know it's there
Tough love, superpower
The laws of the world tell us what goes sky and what falls
It's a superpower, superpower
The laws of the world never stopped us once
'Cause together, we got plenty superpower
Superpower, a subtle power
Superpower, a tough love
Superpower, uh huh, like a shark
Superpower, ooh, too much to bear
And I thought the world would revolve
Without us, without us, without us
But nothing I know could slow us down
Couldn't slow us down
And I thought I could live without you
But together, we got plenty power
And nothing I know couldn't break us down
They couldn't break us down
Yes we can
Couldn't break us down, they couldn't break us down
Yes we can
Couldn't break us down, they couldn't break us down
Yes we can, we can make it, baby
Couldn't break us down, they couldn't break us down
Yes we can
Couldn't break us down, they couldn't break us down
13. Heaven
I fought for you the hardest
It made me the strongest
So tell me your secrets
I just can't stand to see you leaving
But heaven couldn't wait for you
No, heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
Ooh, no, heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go home
We laughed at the darkness
So scared that we lost it
We stood on the ceilings
You showed me love was all you needed
Heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
Oh, no, heaven couldn't wait for you
No, heaven couldn't wait for you
No, heaven couldn't wait for you
No, heaven couldn't wait for you
No, heaven couldn't wait for you
No, oh, heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go home
So go on, go home
Padre nuestro,
que estás en el cielo.
Santificado sea tu nombre.
Venga tu reino.
Hágase tu voluntad en la tierra como en el cielo.
Amén.
14. Blue (feat. Blue Ivy)
Sometimes, these walls seem to cave in on me
When I look in your eyes, I feel alive
Some days, we say words that don't mean a thing
But when you holding me tight, I feel alive
Make it last forever, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
You and I together, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
Ooh
Each day, I feel so blessed to be looking at you
'Cause when you open your eyes, I feel alive
My heart beats so damn quick when you say my name
When I'm holding you tight, I'm so alive
Now let's live it up
Make it last forever, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
You and I together, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
Ooh
Make it last forever, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
You and I together, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
Ooh
We gotta hold on, I gotta hold on
You've got to hold on, you've got a hold on me
We gotta hold on, I gotta hold on
You've got to hold on, you've got a hold on me
Make it last forever, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me?
You and I together, come on, baby
Won't you hold on to me, hold on to me, Blue?
BLUE: Hold on to me, hold on!
Bee-si-ay! Bee-si-ay!
Mommy! Missus Carter!
