Baz Luhrmann
Only Girl In A Material World
[THE DUKE, spoken]
It's like I can have every part of you, except what I really want
(sung)
I want you to love me like I'm a hot ride
Keep thinking of me
Doing what you like
So girl, forget about the world
'Cause it's gonna be me and you tonight
I wanna make you beg for it
Then I'ma make you swallow your pride, ooh
I want you to make me feel like you're the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that's in command
'Cause you're the only one who understands
How to make me feel like a man, whoa
(spoken)
Do you trust me? It's time, my dear, to dress the part
[THE DUKE (ENSEMBLE 1) ENSEMBLE 2]
Let me make you rise
Take you for a ride
Let me make you rise (Let me make you) Only girl in the world
Take you for a ride (Only girl in the world) Let me make you
[ALL]
I want you to make me feel like you're the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that's in command
'Cause you're the only one who understands
How to make me feel like a man, whoa
[SATINE (ENSEMBLE)]
A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental (Material girl)
A kiss may be grand
But it won't pay the rental (Material world)
There may come a time
When they're no longer calling (Material girl)
And so I must climb just to
Keep me from falling
(Only girl in the world)
(Only girl in the world)
