[singing] And I am telling you
I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I could ever go
no, no, there's no way
No, no, no, no way
I'm living without you
I'm stayin', I'm stayin'
And you, and you...you're gonna love me
Lorrell Robinson

[singing] Ev'ry man has his own special dream
And that dream is just about to come true
Life's not as bad as it may seem
If you open your eyes towards in front of you

[singing] We're your dreamgirls, boy, we'll make you happy... Yeah!
We're your dreamgirls, boy, we'll always care
We're your dreamgirls, dreamgirls will never leave you... No, no!
And all you got to do is dream
Baby, we'll be there

Mae Jones: You make her sound like a product.
Curtis Taylor, Jr.: "A product." I like that!

Effie White: [about Deena] She ain't better than anybody. She ain't nothin' but common!
Deena Jones: Now who you callin' common, you self-indulgent, self-absorbed, non-professional?
Effie White: You! I'm callin' you! I'm callin' you the common piece he's knockin' off!
Deena Jones: Now you listen to me, Miss Blame-It-On-The-World, see, I put up with you for much too long. I have put up with your bitchin', I put up with your naggin', and all your screamin' too!
Lorrell Robinson: Now when are you two gonna stop all this fighting?
Effie White: Stay out of this, Lorrell! This is between Deena and me!
Lorrell Robinson: Yeah? Well, it's between me too! I'm a part of this group as anybody else! And I'm tired! Effie, I'm tired of all the problems you're makin' us!
Effie White: I always knew you two were together.
Lorrell Robinson: What?!
Effie White: I always knew you two were gangin' up on me!
Deena Jones: She had nothing to do with this change. It was you! You always thinkin' of you! Always thinkin' of you!
Curtis Taylor, Jr.: I knew you were trouble from the start.
Effie White: Trouble?!
Curtis Taylor, Jr.: You were real bad trouble from the start.
Effie White: Curtis, I'm your woman!
Curtis Taylor, Jr.: But you're gettin' out now. I'm not building this group to have you tear it apart! Go head and rant and scream and shout! Don't worry, baby, I'll buy you out.
Effie White: There's no money dirty enough to buy me out. You remember that, Curtis!
