2024 Broadway The Outsiders the Musical - Grease Got a Hold Lyrics
The song is written by Jonathan Clay, Zach Chance and Justin Levine.
Ponyboy, I think it's time to learn That grease isn't given, It's something that you earn Some of us are smooth like James Dean Some of us are cold And a little more mean Time to be tough and quick on your feet There ain't no way a boy can Make it out on the street
Unless you're mean as a fighter And you're sharp as a blade Play it cool, little brother And you'll have it made
No, we ain't got money, But we got something to prove You're a greaser now And you ain't going back You're an eastbound train on a greaser track Let it be known That the grease got a hold of you
G is for getting the lick And not giving the bit 'Cause they're tough on your chin R is for your reputation Because if you lose It then you'll never win E is to even the score When the socs come at you With all that they've got A you're an animal S you've got stamina, E is embracing your life
It's not about getting your licks It's about licking your gets
G is getting the girls every time 'Cause you got irresistible charm R is for reeling them in And then keeping the prettiest one on your arm E is for effortless swagger, The kind that the ladies can never deny A for affected but not too selective, and E is for catching their eye
It ain't just about busting heads And chasing tail (Nope) Sometimes you gotta stop And ... (Show us how it's done!)
I may not be the sharpest tack in the box I think it changes a lot I ain't no sweetheart Romeo but I do fine You better bet your life
Being a greaser is playing your hand even When there's no way you can win Proving them wrong even When they decide the winner before you begin It's about overcoming and beating the odds, It's fighting for all that you've got There'll always be haves, You better be sure that the haves Will make sure you have not
Ponyboy, I think it's time you learn (What?) You wanna be James Dean? You gonna crash and burn You gotta set your sights on something more You wanna be a fighter? Then know just what you're fighting for
You wanna be tough, You'd better listen to me Ive seen it all I ... the lights on the street I'll teach you everything You need to know ... Oh, you're a grease for life
So play it mean as a fighter And be sharp as a blade Play it cool little brother And you'll have it made No we ain't got money But we got something to prove You're a greaser now And you ain't going back You're an eastbound train On a greaser track Let it be known That the grease got a hold on you
Little brother now you're on your way Let it be known That the grease got a hold on you Little brother now ready to stay Let it be known That the grease got a hold on you
