Lyrics[]
Sharpay:
Imagine having everything we ever dreamed
Don’t you want it?
Ryan: Maybe
Sharpay: Can’t you see it?
Ryan: Kinda
Sharpay:
Imagine first audition after college
I get the lead!
Ryan: A part for me?
Sharpay: Well, of course!
Ryan: Yeah, right
Sharpay: You’ve gotta believe it!
Ryan: Keep talking
Sharpay: You and I, all the fame
Ryan: Sharpay and what’s-his-name
Sharpay: Sound exciting?
Ryan: Inviting
Sharpay: Let’s do it then!
Ryan: Listening.
Sharpay: Personal stylist, agent and a publicist
Ryan: But where do I fit into this?
Sharpay: With you we can win!
Ryan: Win the part?
Sharpay: Think bigger!
Ryan: Become superstars?
Sharpay: That’s better!
Don’t you see that bigger is better
And better is bigger
A little bit is never enough, no no no!
Don't you want it all (you want it, you know that you want it)
The fame and the fortune and more
You want it all (you want it, you know that you want it)
You gotta have your star on the door
You want the world, nothing less
All the glam and the press
Only giving you the best reviews
Say it!
Ryan & Sharpay:
I want it all
(I want it, I want it, I want it)
My name in lights at Carnegie Hall
I want it all
Sharpay (spoken): Can’t you see it?
Ryan (spoken): Yeah!
Sharpay (spoken): They’re gonna love me!
Ryan (clears throat)
Sharpay (spoken): I mean, us
Sharpay:
Red carpet, rose bouquets
Crowd waiting backstage
Ryan:
I’m with her, don’t stop me
I’m not the paparazzi
Sharpay:
Invitations (Ryan: (oh), standing ovations
Ryan: Magazines
Sharpay: Yes, please!
Ryan & Sharpay:
Gonna be celebrities!
Sharpay:
Photographs, fan club
Give the people what they love
Now you’re excited!
Ryan: I like it!
Sharpay: Let’s do it then!
Ryan & Sharpay:
Times Square, jetsetter
Sequels pay better
New York today, tomorrow the world!
Ryan: Sold-out shows
Sharpay: Think bigger!
Ryan: And the Oscar goes to...
Sharpay: That’s better!
Ryan & Sharpay:
Don’t you see that bigger is better
And better is bigger
A little bit is never enough, no no no!
I want it all (I want it, I want it, I want it)
The fame and the fortune and more
I want it all (I want it, want it, want it)
I’ve gotta have my star on the door
I want the world, nothing less
All the glam and the press
Only giving me the best reviews
I want it all (I want it, want it, want it)
