VERNON
Oooo Workin' it out

We need a good lyric in here
SONIA
The last thing I need today is a melody
VERNON
Lalalalalalala
SONIA
I'm findin' out that nobody gives you their songs for free
VERNON
Lalalalalalala
SONIA
He wants one thing he wants another
I just want to run and take cover
I need a little more time just for me
VERNON
Can't you see I'm workin' it out
SONIA
Workin' it out, that's what I'm tryin' to do
Working it out For Leon, for me and you
VERNON
Oooo Dance for me baby
SONIA
Workin it out it should be easy to do
You never had to work it out
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
You never had to work it out
You never had to work it out
VERNON
Work it out!
SONIA
Work it out for two
VERNON
I hear a kind of BeeGees record here, About broken hearts or something…Something like…
Look at the way he works
What would he know of a broken heart?
VERNON
Ooo give it to me mama
SONIA
To him broken heart is a phrase I should write for his God damn middle part
VERNON
You'll fill it in here
SONIA
He's askin' me for words that are clever
Leon and me we had five years together
I need a little more time
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
Time
SONIA
Just for me
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
Can't he see?
SONIA
I'm workin it out
VERNON
Working it out!
SONIA
You gotta give me a chance
Just cause I hear your music
VERNON
Baby!
SONIA
Don't mean I gotta dance
Workin it out
It should be easy to easy to do
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
It should be easy
SONIA
You never had to work it out
VERNON
Work it out!
SONIA
Work it out for two
VERNON
Here's where my boys come in
MALE ALTER EGOS
Lalala…
SONIA
He took my lyric kept my title
Threw out every word
VERNON
Baby!
SONIA
He made some crazy disco thing
It's not at all the son I heard but-
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
Maybe his way's better
SONIA
Who knows I'm too unclear
Right now my mind's in such a mess
I hardly know I'm here
VERNON
Hey baby!
MALE ALTER EGOS
Lalala…
SONIA
Gotta find a lyric
Gotta give ya somethin'
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
Tell him 'you were right dear'
SONIA
If someone else had written this I'd know just what to say
I'd say it's not my kind of song can't we write something else today but
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
He might get insulted
SONIA
His ego isn't small
FEMALE ALTER EGOS
If you don't write him something quick
We might not work at all
SONIA
I've got to work it out
Help me work it out
VERNON
The music is great, now it's onto you
SONIA
Try even harder that's all I can do
You never had to work it out
VERNON
Let's go to work!
SONIA
Work it out for two
