Ces Soirees la'

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Que tous ceux qui sont dans la vibe
(levent le doigt)
Que toutes celles qui sont dans la vibe
(levent le doigt)
Que ceux qui sont assis se levent
(suivez-vous moi)
Allez maintenant on y va

Ces soirées la!
Avant meme qu'elles aies commencйes
On est deja dans l'ambience et...
A peine entre sur la piste
On lance le dernier pas
Avec beacoup plus de style
Que Travolta
Par contre soufflé dans la foule on par en r'connaissance
(SERRÉ)
Et la seule chose a laquelle on pense
Chacun fait son numero
Pour en avoir un vite rentré sans rien , pas moyen

Ces soirees la!
(Ha hun Ha hun)
On drague, on branche, toi meme tu sais pourquoi
(Ouais ouais!)
Pour qu'on finisse ensemble toi et moi
(C'est pour ça)
Qu'on aime tous ces soirees la

Jusqu'a l'aube
Qu'on les aime jusqu'a l'aube, baby
Dans ces soirees la!
Tout le monde danse
Et meme le DJ a plein tour ou pas
On a mit l'ambience au DJ
Nos vestes, nos chemises en l'air on faisait voltiger
(OUAIS)
Faisaient les gars
(AHHHH)
Faisaient les go dans la ronde
C'est la que sur elle j'suis tombe
Elle essayait
(hummmm)
J'en suis resté bouchebée
En temps normal, l'aborder, j'aurais pas osé mais
Tout est permi... dans...

Ces soirées la!
(Ha hun Ha hun)
On drague, on branche, toi meme tu sais pourquoi
(Ouais ouais!)
Pour qu'on finisse ensemble toi et moi
(C'est pour ça)
Qu'on aime tous ces soirées la

Jusqu'a l'aube
Qu'on les aime jusqu'a l'aube, baby
Elles sont toutes bonnes a croquer
Mais c'est sur elle que j'ai craqué
Continu a craquer quand mes yeux sur elle se sont braquйs
Bon la, elle est seule, j'fais quoi, j'vais lui parler?
Non, faudrait je me calme avant d'y aller
(Mais qu'est-ce qu'il attend pour venir me voir)
Bon j'y vais sinon, j'vais encore le regretter
(Ah enfin il s'est décidé, ptetre que ce soir...)
T'inquiete la soirée ne fait que commencer

Ces soirées la!
(Ha hun Ha hun)
On drague, on branche, toi meme tu sais pourquoi
(Ouais ouais!)
Pour qu'on finisse ensemble toi et moi
(C'est pour ça)
Qu'on aime tous ces soirйes la

Jusqu'a l'aube
On les aime jusqu'a l'aube, baby
Que tous ceux qui sont dans la vibe
(levent le doigt)
Que toutes celles qui sont dans la vibe
(levent le doigt)
Que tout le monde main dans la main
Suivez-moi
Allez maintenant tous ensemble

EN HAUT... EN BAS... A GAUCHE.... A DROITE
EN HAUT... EN BAS... A GAUCHE.... A DROITE

Early Years Medley

(Jersey Boys Cast)

GROUP:
AH, AH, AH, AH,AH, AH, AH
AH, AH, AH, AH,AH, AH, AH

BOB G.:
That's our song. "Oh What A Night" "Se Souir el La". French. Number one in Paris 2000. How'd that happen? You ask four
guys, you get four different versions, but this is where all of them start. Belgum New Jersey, thousand years ago,
Iesenhower, Rocky Marcianno, with a few guys under a street lamp singin' somebody elses latest hit.

GROUP:
LOST CONTROL IN MANG JAVERT I WAS SORE
LET ME IN OR ELSE I BEAT DOWN YOUR DOOR
THEN TWO STRANGERS WHO HAD BEEN
TWO SILHOUETTES ON THE SHADE
SAID TO MY SHOCK, YOU'RE ON THE WRONG BLOCK

SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES,
SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES,
SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES, OH
SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES,
SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES,
SILHOUETTES, SILHOUETTES, OH

DARLIN', MY DARLIN,
MY DARLIN, MY DARLIN', DARLIN
DARLIN', MY DARLIN,
MY DARLIN,

BOB G.:
Our best ring turns out to be a kid who sings like an angel. He hangs around the clubs, so I set up a little surprise for
him.

GROUP:
YOU'RE THE APPLE OF MY EYE

BOB G.:
Thank you ladies and gentlemen! We're the Variety Trio... 3, 4! And now, a discovery of mine, little Frankie Castalluccio

FRANKIE:
I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANYTHING BUT LOVE, BABY
THAT'S THE ONLY THING I'VE PLENTY OF, BABY
DREAM WILD, SCHEME WILD
BE SURE TO FIND, HAPPINESS
AND I GUESS ALL THOSE THINGS
YOU'VE ALWAYS PINED FOR....

BOB G.:
Groups are growing on trees, but this kid could do it for us. Sure he's green, but that's where I come in. I take this raw
clay and i make like Michaelangelo. I got a few years on him so I got a lot to teach him. It's like my mission.

TOMMY:
Listen, Frankie. Tuesday night, me and my brother Nick are gonna knock over a fixed jewelry store over on Frankstow Rd.,
around midnight. Are you in or what?

FRANKIE:
Don't know. My dad wants me home by eleven.

TOMMY:
Tell him we're rehearsing. Figure your cut will be a-hundred and fifty. Take it two

NICK:
He's a good kid, He just needs a little, you know... guidance. That jog your memory?

GYP:
Frankie, your driving Tommys car, you got no license. It's one block from where the hit-fix is.

BOB C.:
They got Tommy and his brother. They already gave the up numb nuts.

FRANKIE:
I don't know what you're talking about.

BOB C.:
Have it your way.

JUDGE:
How old are you?

FRANKIE:
16 your honor.

JUDGE:
I'm letting you off with a warning. I suggest you get yourself a new set of friends. Now get out of here.

NICK:
Frankie, sing good.

TOMMY:
The kids a singer. A good singer. And gettin' better

JUDGE:
Then he oughta be great by the time you get out. 6 months.

FRANKIE:
OH EARTH ANGEL, EARTH ANGEL
THE ONE I ADORE
LOVE YOU FOREVER, AND EVERMORE

MARY:
Nickie, for God's sakes what are we doing in church? I thought we were going to the movies!

NICK:
Relax, will you? The kid's ready to play a big room!

FRANKIE:
I WANT A SUNDAY KIND OF LOVE
A LOVE TO LAST PAST SATURDAY NIGHT
I'M GLAD TO KNOW IT'S MORE
THAN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
I WANT A SUNDAY KIND OF LOVE
OOH

I DO MY SUNDAY DREAMING,
AND OH MY SUNDAY SCHEMING
EVERY MINUTE, EVERY HOUR, EVERY DAY
I'M HOPIN' TO DISCOVER
A CERTAIN KIND OF LOVER

LORRAINE:
So that's your real name? Vally?

FRANKIE:
Nah. Castalluccio. Frances Castalluccio.

LORRAINE:
Kinda long for a marquee

FRANKIE:
That's why I changed it. Vally. V-a-l-l-y.

LORRAINE:
No! V-a-l-l-i.

FRANKIE:
How come?

LORRAINE:
Because you're italian! You gotta end in a vowel. Vigado, casluccio, pizza, valli, with an I. It says this is who I am. You
don't like it? You can go f*ck yourself.

MR. DICARLO:
Hey, Frankie. Sing "My Mother's Eyes."

FRANKIE:
Gee, Mr. Dicallo. I haven't sung that song since I was 15.

MR. DICARLO:
Frankie, let me explain how this works. You do a favor for me, one day I'll do a favor for you.

FRANKIE:
Sure Mr. Dicarlo.

ONE BRIGHT AND GUIDING LIGHT
THAT TAUGHT ME WRONG FROM RIGHT
I FOUND IN MY MOTHERS EYES
JUST LIKE A WONDERING SPARROW
ONE LONELY SONG
I WALK THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW
TO REACH MY GOAL

TOMMY:
So, it's me, Nick, Frankie. And it's up to me to keep us out of the gutter. But nobody's hiring trios anymore. Quartets are
in. So i'm looking for a fourth guy so we can get some work.

NICK:
Tommy! I got your fourth guy! You're gonna thank me for this! He's a genious!

TOMMY:
What's his name?

NICK:
Gardio. Bob Gardio. He's a kid, but he plays like a madman! And he writes songs!

GROUP:
WHO WEARS SHORT SHORTS?

WOMEN:
WE WEAR SHORT SHORTS

GROUP:
THERE'S SUCH SHORT SHORTS

WOMEN:
WE LIKE SHORT SHORTS

GROUP:
WHO WEARS SHORT SHORTS?

WOMEN:
WE WEAR SHORT SHORTS

NICK:
Bobby! Bobby! Hey listen! The three lovers. They got this kid singer, he's like, "forget about it!" And they're dying to
meet you!

BOBBY:
Why?

NICK:
Because I told them you were a f*cking genious!

FRANKIE:
THERE I GO, THERE I GO
THERE I GO, THERE I GO
PRETTY BABY YOU ARE THE SOUL
WHO SNAPS MY CONTROL
SUCH A FUNNY THING
BUT EVERYTIME I'M NEAR YOU
I NEVER CAN BEHAVE
YOU GIVE ME A SMILE
AND THEN I'M WRAPPED UP IN YOUR MAGIC

BOBBY:
I dropped out of highschool to tour with "Short Shorts". I shared a bus with Chuck Barry, Sam Cooke, The Evelly Brothers,
Jackie Wilson. But I never heard a voice like Frankie Valli's. After eight bars I know I need to write for this voice.

FRANKIE:
BRIGHTEST STARS
THAT SHINE UP ABOVE YOU
IN THE CLEAR BLUE SKIES
HOW I WORRY ABOUT YOU
JUST CAN'T LIVE MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU
BABY COME HERE, DON'T HAVE NO FEAR
IS THERE A WONDER WHY
I'M REALLY FEELING IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE

TOMMY:
Nick Massey, Frankie Valli, Bob... what is it?

BOBBY:
Gardio. Hi.

FRANKIE:
Hi.

TOMMY:
Somebody say you write?

NICK:
Yeah, yeah, yeah! I told you! Can we just borrow the piano for a minute? Go ahead Bobby. Play the new one.

Walk Like A Man

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
Like a man

Oh how you tried to cut me down to size
Telling dirty lies to my friends
But my own father said give her up don't bother
The world isn't coming to an end

(he said just) Walk like a man
Talk like a man
Walk like a man my son
No woman's worth
Crawling on the earth
Just walk like a man my son

Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk

(I'm gonna) walk like a man
Fast as I can
Walk like a man from you
I'll tell the world to forget about it girl
And walk like a man from you

Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk like a man
Like a man

December, 1963

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Spoken
It’s a season of firsts! John Glenn is the first American to orbit the earth. We go out on our first cross country tour,
the label is racking it in so the send over a few girls in Chicago over Christmas. And that night I racked up a personal
first.


Oh, what a night.
Late December back in '63.
What a very special time for me,
'Cause I remember what a night.

Oh, what a night.
You know, I didn't even know her name,
But I was never gonna be the same.
What a lady. What a night.

Oh, I. I got a funny feeling when she walked
In the room and I,
As I recall it ended much too soon.

Oh, what a night,
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me.
She was everything I dreamed she'd be.
Sweet surrender, what a night!

Oh, what a night.
Why'd it take so long to see the light?
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right.
Sweet surrender, what a night!

I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Spinnin' my head around and taking my body under.
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)

And bothered me every night
And when I wouldn't go out with you,

My Eyes Adored You

(Jersey Boys Cast)

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far away

Carried your books from school,
Playing make-believe you're married to me:
You were fifth grade, I was sixth
When we came to be
Walking home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay,
Till we grew into the me and you
Who went our separate ways

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

Headed for city lights,
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame,
I worked my fingers to the bone,
Made myself a name.
Funny, I seem to find that, no matter how the years unwind,
Still I reminisce about the girI miss
And the love I left behind...

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

All my life I will remember how warm and tender
We were way back then
Though I'm feeling sad regrets I know I won't ever forget
You, my childhood friend

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

Dawn (Go Away)

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Pretty as a midsummers morn, they call her Dawn

Dawn, go away I'm no good for you
Oh, Dawn, stay with him he'll be good to you
Hang on, Hang on to him

Think, what a big man he'll be
Think, all the places you'll see
Now think what the future would be
with a poor boy like me

Dawn go away, please go away
Although I know I want you to stay
Dawn go away, please go away
Baby don't cry, it's better this way

Oh Dawn go away, back where you belong
Girl we can't change the places
where we were born
Before you say that you want me

I want you to think what your family would say
think what you're throwing away
Now think what the future would be
with a poor boy like me
repeat 5x Dawn, go away I'm no good for you

Big Man In Town

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Big man in town...

Each day as I grow older,
The nights are getting colder.
Some day the sun will shine on me.
Money, I don't have any:
I'm down to my last penny,
But, darling, don't cry over me:

I'll be a big man in town (honest, honey)
I'll be a big man in town (promise, darling)
I'll be a big man in town, just you wait and see:
You'll be proud of me.

They think that I'm a rover,
But my roving days are over.
Someday your folks will welcome me.
I went away a small man,
But I'll come home a tall man.
Then what a pretty bride you'll be.

I'll be a big man in town (honest, honey)
I'll be a big man in town (promise, darling)
I'll be a big man in town, just you wait and see:
You'll be proud of me.

I'm gonna make it, just wait and see.
I'm gonna make it, just wait and see.
Just wait and see,
Girl, I'm gonna make it, just wait and see.

"And now, The Sea Breeze Lounge is proud to present,
The return engagement of international recording stars,
The Four Seasons."

THE FOUR SEASONS:
Mmm...
Put your lovin' hand out, baby
I'm beggin'
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby

Ridin' high when I was king
Playin' it hard and fast cause I had everything

Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby

The kind of man you'd want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again

Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby

An empty shell of used to be
The shadow of my life is hangin' over me
A broken man without a goal
Don't even stand a Devil's chance, to win my soul

Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby

I'm fightin' hard to hold my own
No, I just can't make it all alone

Now that big brass ring is a shade of black

Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby (I'm beggin' you)
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby
Beggin', Beggin' you, put your lovin' hand out, baby

Dialogue - See How You Handle it

(Jersey Boys Cast)

[Frankie]
Here's how it was.
You're in public, you have a certain charisma.
We do a show, I go back to the hotel, empty my pockets.
There'd be 15, 20 cocktail napkins with phone numbers on them.

What I'm saying is none of us were saints.
You sell a 100 million records, see how you handle it.

Bye, bye, baby
Don't make me cry
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)

You're the one girl in town I'd marry
Girl I'd marry you now if I were free
I wish it could be

I can love you but why begin it
'Cause there ain't any future in it
She
(She's got me and I'm not free so)

Bye, bye, baby
Baby goodbye
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)
Bye, bye, baby
Don't make me cry
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)

Bye, baby bye
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)
Cry, baby cry
(Bye baby, baby bye bye)

Bye baby, baby bye bye
Bye

C'mon Marianne

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Whoa-ho-ho here I am on my knees again
I'll do anything just to make it right
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
C'mon Marianne


No matter what people say, it didn't happen that way
She was a passing fling and not a permanent thing
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can

C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Well now your big brown eyes are all full of tears
From the bitterness of my cheatin' years
So I hang my head, wish that I was dead
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)

Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You

(John Lloyd Young)

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray

Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Working My Way Back To You

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Working my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you babe
With a happiness that died
I let it get away, paying every day

When you were so in love with me
I played around like I was free
Thought I could have my cake and eat it too
Oh how I cried over losing you

For every day I made you cry
I'm paying girl til the day that I die
I'll keep working my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you babe
With a happiness that died
I let it get away, payin every day

I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
But if I'd been a man in reality
You'd still be here babe lovin me

Now the nights are long and lonely
And I'm not too strong babe I just miss you so
And you're too proud, won't give in
But when I think about all I could win

I keep working my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you babe
With a happiness that died
I let it get away, payin every day

yeah yeah yeah

Working my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside
I'm working my way back to you babe
WIth a happiness that died oh how I'm cryin
Working my way back to you babe
With a burning love inside

Fallen Angel

(Jersey Boys Cast)

You're home again, I'm glad you kept the key
Been waiting here, it seems a million years to me
But hush now I know you're all cried out
It's all right inside, I've had no doubt
About your love for me
I can see behind the tears
I'm certain of the way we feel
And given time the hurt will heal

You're home again so won't you close the door
Stay here with me and
We'll forget what's gone before
Just hold me tight
Our love is gonna make it right
Put shadows way beyond recall
The ghost has almost gone

Fallen angel, I'll forgive you anything
You can't help the things you do
Now something's gotten hold of you

Fallen angel, got a demon in your soul
And later when the fever's gone
I'll be here where you belong

Rag Doll

(Jersey Boys Cast)

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Ahh, ah-ah-ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

(Hand-me-down) When she was just a kid her clothes were hand-me-down
(Hand-me-down) They always laughed at her when she came into town
Called her rag doll, little rag doll
Such a pretty face should be dressed in lace

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

(Sad rag doll) I'd change her sad rags into glad rags if I could
(If I could) My folks won't let me 'cause they say that she's no good
She's a rag doll, such a rag doll
Though I love her so, I can't let her know

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Ahh, ah-ah-ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
I love you just the way you are

A-ahh, ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

To help the shadows drift away.
