Original Broadway Cast of Rock Of Ages
[Just Like] Livin’ in Paradise / Nothing But a Good Time
[LONNY]
Come on, feel the noise
Girls, rock your boys
We'll get wild, wild, wild!

[LONNY & ENSEMBLE]
Wild, wild, wild!

[LONNY, spoken]
Yeah!
What’s going down, home listeners?
That’s right, we’re going back to a sexier time!
And if you were here, you could see this super hot chick driving past me right now.

[sung]
Rockin' steady in her daddy's car
She got the stereo with the big guitars
And that's alright!
Yeah!

[ENSEMBLE]
All right!

[LONNY]
I got the itch and a restless soul
[JUSTICE CHARLIER]
She gone with the wind
Gonna go for broke tonight!
Yeah! And that's

[WITH ENSEMBLE]
All right!

[LONNY]
That’s it, that’s it!
Girl, we've been meant for this since we were born!

[ENSEMBLE]
Since we were born!

[LONNY]
No problems now, the coast is clear!

[DENNIS]
It's just the calm before the storm!

[LONNY, DENNIS, JUSTICE, & ENSEMBLE]
This must be just like livin' in paradise

[LONNY]
Just like paradise!
[LONNY, DENNIS, JUSTICE, & ENSEMBLE]
And I don't want to go home!

[DREW]
I ain’t never goin' home!

[LONNY, DENNIS, DREW, JUSTICE, & ENSEMBLE]
This must be just like livin' in paradise!
And I don't want to go home!

[LONNY, spoken]
That’s right, my babies.
Welcome to the sunset strip!
“An acid wash epicentre!” Do you feel it?
Man, back in the day, if a fella had a dream, a fifth of jack
And a decent amount of hair, there was nowhere else to be!

[DREW]
Now listen!
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
But right now I can't make ends meet, whoa!

[DREW, LONNY, & ENSEMBLE]
I’m always workin', slavin’, every day
Gotta get away from the same old same old!
[DREW]
I need a chance just to get away!

[LONNY]
If you could hear him think

[DREW]
Yeah, this is what I’d say!!

[DREW, LONNY, & ENSEMBLE]
Don’t need nothin’ but a good time

[DREW]
How can I resist?

[DREW, LONNY, & ENSEMBLE]
Ain’t lookin’ for nothin’ but a good time!
And it don’t get better than this

[LONNY, spoken]
That’s our boy, Drew Boley.

[DREW, spoken]
Actually, I prefer my stage name, Wolfgang Von Colt!

[LONNY, spoken]
Adorable. See, Drew is a barback here at the legendary
“Dupree's Bourbon Room!”
Owned by none other than the most badass bar owner this side of... um, anywhere!
Meet Dennis Dupree! He owns this historic temple of rock n’ roll kick-assery.

[DENNIS]
I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day
If wantin’ the good life is such a crime…

[DREW]
Lord, then put me away!

[DENNIS]
Here's to you!

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[DREW, DENNIS, LONNY & ENSEMBLE]
Don’t need nothin’ but a good time

[DREW, DENNIS & LONNY]
How can I resist?

[WITH ENSEMBLE]
Ain’t lookin’ for nothin’ but a good time
And it don’t get better than this (whoa!)
Don’t need nothin’ but a good time
How can I resist?
Ain’t lookin’ for nothin’ but a good time
And it don’t get better than this
Don’t get better than-
Don’t get better than-

[LONNY, spoken]
Wait a minute!
