MAX:

Don't you see, Bloom. Darling Bloom, glorious Bloom. It's so simple.
|
Step One: we find the worst play ever written.
|
Step Two: we hire the worst director in town.
|
Step Three: I raise two million dollars...
|
LEO:
|
Two?
|
MAX:
|
Yes! One for me, one for you. There's a lot of little old ladies out there.
|
Step Four: We hire the worst actors in New York and open on Broadway.
|
And before you can say Step Five, we close on Broadway, take our two million and go to Rio.
|
LEO:
|
Rio? Nah, that'd never work.
|
MAX:
|
Oh ye of little faith.
|
What did Lewis say to Clark
|
When everything looked bleak?
|
What did Sir Edmund say to Tenzing
|
As they struggled toward Everest's peak?
|
What did Washington say to his troops
|
As they crossed the Delaware
|
I'm sure you're well aware...
|
LEO:
|
What'd they say?
|
MAX:
|
We can do it, we can do it
|
We can do it, me and you
|
We can do it, we can do it
|
We can make our dreams come true
|
Everything you've ever wanted
|
Is just waiting to be had
|
Beautiful girls, wearing nothing but pearls
|
Caressing you, undressing you
|
And driving you mad
|
We can do it, we can do it
|
This is not the time to shirk
|
We can do it, you won't rue it
|
Say goodbye to petty clerk
|
Hi, producer: yes, producer
|
I mean you, sir, go beserk!
|
We can do it, we can do it
|
And I know it's gonna work
|
Whatta ye say, Bloom?
|
LEO:
|
What do I say
|
Finally a chance to be a Broadway producer!
|
What do I say?
|
Finally a chance to make my dreams come true, sir!
|
What do I say, what do I say
|
Here's what I say to you, sir...
|
I can't do it, I can't do it
|
I can't do it, that's not me
|
I'm a loser, I'm a coward
|
I'm a chicken, don't you see?
|
When it comes to wooing women
|
There's a few things that I lack
|
Beautiful girls, wearing nothing but pearls...
|
Cashing me, embracing me
|
I'd have an attack
|
MAX:
|
Why, you miserable, cowardly, wretched little caterpillar!
|
Don't you ever want to become a butterfly?
|
Don't you want to spread your wings and flap your way to glory?
|
MAX:
|
We can do it
|
|
We can do it
|
|
We can grab that holy grail!
|
|
We can do it
|
|
We can do it
|
|
Drink champagne, not ginger ale
|
|
Come on, Leo
|
Can't you see-o ...
|
|
LEO:
|
Mr. Bialystock
|
Please stop the song
|
You've got me wrong
|
I'll say "so long"
|
I'm not as strong
|
A person as you think
|
Mr. Bialystock
|
Just take a look
|
I'm not a crook
|
I'm just a shnook
|
The bottom line
|
Is that I stink!
|
I...can't...
|
Do...it!
|
LEO:
|
You see Rio, I see jail!
|
MAX:
|
We can do it!
|
LEO:
|
I can't do it!
|
MAX:
|
We can do it!
|
LEO:
|
I cannot, cannot, cannot
|
'Cause I know it's gonna fail
|
MAX:
|
We can do it!
|
MAX:
|
I know it cannot fail
|
|
LEO:
|
It's gonna fail
|
