letra de ain't it the truth - alan menken

[nick]
you wanna look like a fella who deserves respect?
you better start dressing the part
you need the suit, shirt and tie
i’m talkin’ fully decked
you hair like a work of art

[sl!ck, mario, and calogero]
yeah!

[nick]
you put on the fedora, the sophisticated aura
and you curl your lip and stand just right
light a cig and hold it steady
strike and pose and now you’re ready
to hang on the corner all night

[sl!ck, mario, and calogero]
ain’t it the truth?

[nick]
you know it!
every word is true

[sl!ck, mario, and calogero]
ain’t it the truth?
[nick]
you listen what i’m tellin’ you
you can’t hold your head up
in a cheap-ass lookin’ get-up

[all]
and that’s the truth!
bah-doo-wop!
bah! bah! bah-dah-dah!
bah-doo-wop!

[mario, spoken]
hey! don’t i know you from some place?

[girl, spoken]
yeah. that’s why i don’t go thеre anymore

[mario, spoken]
forget hеr
she’s a sl-t

[sl!ck, spoken]
how do you know?

[mario, spoken]
she failed my test
[calogero, spoken]
your ‘test’?

[mario, spoken]
the ‘mario test’
this test can’t fail

[mario, singing]
you want to know if your girl’s gonna be the one?
you give her the ‘mario test.’
pick her up, take her driving
have a bit of fun
and then here’s what i suggest

[mario, spoken]
you take her out on the highway and you get right up next to one of those big 18 wheelers
you honk the h-rn
“beep beep.”
you wave to the driver
you make sure he’s lookin’ at you, it’s very important
then, you put your right hand behind her head
you whisper in her ear and tell her what you expect
now, if she goes for the old brajone knowing the guy in the 18 wheeler is watching, she can’t be trusted

[calogero, spoken]
you’re a sick person, mario
[sl!ck, nick and calogero, singing]
ain’t it the truth?

[mario]
no bullsh-t
every word makes sense

[sl!ck, nick and calogero]
ain’t it the truth?

[mario]
ignore me at your own expense
she likes the pepperoni
she ain’t fit for matrimony

[all]
and that’s the truth!
woo!
bah-doo-wop!
bah! bah! bah-dah-dah!
bah-doo-wop!
sha-sha-sha-wah-dah!

[sl!ck, spoken]
hey, what are you [?] doing walking over here?

[mario, spoken]
yeah, this is our neighbourhood

[calogero, spoken]
they’re not makin’ any trouble
just forget about it

[sl!ck, spoken]
my father told me that’s how it starts
you let one in, they take over the neighbourhood

[calogero, spoken]
sl!ck, listen

[sl!ck, singing]
you want to know what it takes
to be a real paisan?
you stand on the side of what’s right
and when those jigs get ideas and it’s your block they’re on
you quit actin’ all polite

[calogero, spoken]
hey, c’mon, sl!ck

[sl!ck]
you get up in their faces
and you show them where their place is

[mario]
you baseball bat their heads

[sl!ck]
no doubt!

[nick]
’cause you let one or two in
and the whole place goes to ruin

[sl!ck]
and who else will keep the spooks out?

[sl!ck, nick and mario]
ain’t it the truth?

[sl!ck]
you know it
every godd-mn word

[sl!ck, nick and mario]
ain’t it the truth?

exactly like we’ve always heard
the next tribe that passes
you can bet we’ll kick their asses

ain’t it the truth?
and that’s the truth!
bah-doo-wop!
bah! bah! bah-dah-dah!
bah-doo-wop!
sha-sha-sha-wah-dah!
bah-doo-wop!
bah! bah! bah-dah-dah!

and that’s the truth!
