Song Meaning and Annotations
“There! Right There!” drops into the courtroom like a confetti cannon packed with stereotypes. Rhythm-wise, it’s part tango, part Greek wedding, part Village People—an irresistible mash-up that mirrors the characters’ frantic attempt to label Nikos Argitakos. The verses volley between Elle Woods’s razor-sharp observations, Professor Callahan’s blustery logic, and a jury box of confused classmates. Every eight bars feels like a tennis match: gay? European
There! Right There! Lyrics
ELLE
There! Right There!
Look at that tan, that tinted skin.
Look at the killer shape he's in.
Look at that slightly stubbly chin.
Oh Please he's gay, totally gay.
CALLAHAN
I'm not about to celebrate.
Every trait could indicate the totally straight expatriate.
This guy's not gay, I tell not gay.
ALL
That is the elephant in the room.
Well is it relevant to assume
that a man who wears perfume
is automatically radically fey?
EMMETT
But look at his coiffed and crispy locks.
ELLE
Look at his silk translucent socks.
CALLAHAN
There's the eternal paradox.
Watch what we're seeing.
ELLE
What are we seeing?
CALLAHAN
Is he gay?
ELLE
Of course he's gay.
CALLAHAN
Or European?
ALL
ohhhhhh.
Gay or European?
It's hard to guarantee
Is he gay or European?
WARNER
Well, hey don't look at me.
VIVIAN
You see they bring their boys up different in those charming foreign ports.
They play peculiar sports.
ALL
In shiny shirts and tiny shorts.
Gay or foreign fella?
The react could take weeks.
They will say things fond of "ciao bella"
while they kiss you on both cheeks.
ELLE
Oh please.
ALL
Homosexual
