[Grace, spoken]
C'mon, Annie, let's go to the movies!

[Annie, spoken]
Let's go see the stars!

[Grace]
Cowboy heroes
Cops and robbers
Glamour and strife
Bigger than life!
Sitting in the darkness
What a world to see!
Let's go to the movies
Annie, wait and see

Betty Davis is probably lying
And Greta Garbo is probably crying
While Robert Taylor
Is locked in her dying embrace
Chico and Groucho
And Chaplin and Lloyd
Are all super
Sweet Mickey Mouse
Shirley Temple
And dear Jackie Cooper
[Annie]
Let's go to the movies

[Both]
Let's go see the stars!

[Grace]
Fred and Ginger
Spinning madly
Songs and romance
Life is the dance
Sitting in the darkness
Popcorn on your knee!
Give the maid the night off!

[Warbucks, spoken]
Turn the kitchen light off!

[Grace & Warbucks]
Let's go to the movies
Annie, you and me!

[Female Chorus]
Let's go to the movies (See the movies)
Let's go see the stars
Red lights holler
Big Depression
What do we care?
Movies are there!
Only happy endings (Boy gets girl, yes)
That's our recipe!
Welcome to a lovely
M-O-V-I-E!
[Instrumental Break]


[Male Chorus]
Let's go to the movies (We love to go, to RKO, Columbia, Universal)
Let's go see the stars (Jack Warner and, Sam Goldwyn and, MGM and Paramount)

[All]
Dreams of glory
Cast of thousands
Bigger than life
Bigger than life!
Only happy endings
That's our recipe!
So, welcome to the movies
Wait
And
See!
