Lyrics[]
Sharpay:
It’s out with the old and in with the new
Goodbye clouds of gray, hello skies of blue
A dip in the pool, a trip to the spa
Endless days in my chaise
The whole world according to moi
Sharpay (spoken):
Excuse me, thank you
Sharpay:
Iced tea imported from England
Lifeguards imported from Spain
Towels imported from Turkey
And turkey imported from Maine
Sharpay & Ryan:
We’re gonna relax and renew.
Sharpay:
You, go, do!
I want fabulous, that is my simple request
All things fabulous, bigger and better and best
I need something inspiring to help me get along
I need a little fabulous, is that so wrong?
Fetch me my Jimmy Choo flip-flops
Where is my pink Prada tote?
I need my Tiffany hairband
And then I can go for a float
Ryan:
Summer like never before!
Sharpay:
I want more!
Ryan:
She wants fabulous, that is her simple request
All things fabulous, bigger and better and best
She needs something inspiring to help her get along
She needs a little fabulous, is that so wrong?
Ryan & Sharpettes:
Fabulous pool!
Sharpay: Ew!
Ryan & Sharpettes:
Fabulous splash!
Sharpay: Read my lips!
Ryan & Sharpettes:
Fabulous parties, even fabulous trash!
Fabulous fashion, fabulous bling
Sharpay: No! Yeah
Ryan & Sharpettes:
She’s gotta have fabulous everything!
Sharpay & Ryan:
Nothing to discuss
Everything’s got to be perfect for
Sharpay: Me!
Ryan & Sharpettes:
She wants fabulous (Sharpay: no fab fabulous)
That is her simple request
She wants fabulous, bigger and better and best (Sharpay: I need fabulous)
She needs something inspiring to help her get along (Sharpay: no fab fabulous)
She needs a little fabulous, is that so wrong? (Sharpay: I need fabulous)
Sharpay:
This won’t do, that’s a bore
That’s insulting, I need more
I need, I need
I need, I need
I need, I need
I need fabulous!
I want fabulous!
Bring me
Ryan & Sharpettes:
Fabulous hair, fabulous style
Fabulous eyes and that fabulous smile
Sharpay:
Oh, I like what I see, I like it a lot

Ryan & Sharpettes:

Sharpay:
Absolutely........... NOT!!!!!!!
