Emmet: Woah, Elle, what's up doc?
Elle: Love,
Emmet: excuse me?
Elle:I put my faith in love
I followed where it led
Emmet: Love led you here?
Elle: To my personal circle of hell
It has not worked out well
I wish that I were dead
'Cause instead of a wedding and love
I'm flunking out of school, a total laughingstock
Someone, he and his friends can just mock
So, go on, here's my head, just hit it with a rock
Emmet: Wait, go back
You came out here to follow a man?
Harvard Law was just part of that plan?
Man, what rich romantic planet are you from?
Elle: Malibu?
Emmet: Instead of lying outside by the pool
You stalk some guy to an Ivy League school?
That's the weirdest reason I
Elle: Well, why'd you come?
Emmet: Okay, I grew up in the Roxbury slums
With my mom and a series of bums
Guys who showed me all the ways a man can fail
I got through law school by busting my ass
Worked two jobs, in addition to class
So, forgive me for not weeping at your tale
Elle: Oh well, excuse me
Just because you've got some
Kind of chip on your shoulder
Emmet: You know what? You're right
There's a chip on my shoulder and it's big as a boulder
With the chance I've been given, I'm gonna be driven as hell
I'm so close I can taste it, so, I'm not gonna waste it
Yeah, there's a chip on my shoulder, you might wanna get one as well
Elle: I'm sorry, but that sounds highly negative
Wait, two jobs plus law school? How do you do it?
Emmet: Well, I don't go to parties a lot, not good use of the time that I've got
Can't spend hours doin' my hair and stayin' in shape
Elle: I don't spend hours
But I know it'll all be worthwhile
When I win my first lucrative trial
And buy my mom that great big house out on the cape
Elle: Oh, that's so sweet
Emmet: No, that's the chip on my shoulder, I hugged my mom and told her
With the chance I've been given, I'm gonna be driven as hell
Though I can't take the day off, I just think of the payoff
You need a chip on your shoulder, Little Miss Woods comma Elle
