Lyrics
Trevor: I saw my problems and I’ll see the light, we got a lovin’ thing, we gotta feed it right.

There ain’t no danger we can go too far, we start believin’ now that we can be who we are – Grease is the word.

''They think our love is just a growin’ pain. Why don’t they understand? It’s just a cryin’ shame.''

Their lips are lyin’, only real is real, we stop the fight right now, we got to be what we feel – Grease is the word.

Chorus Girls: Grease is the word, is the word that you heard…

Trevor: It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.

Trevor and Chorus Girls: Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion…

Trevor: Grease is the way we are feeling.

''We take the pressure, and we throw away conventionality, belongs to yesterday. There is a chance that we can make it so far, we start believin’ now that we can be who we are – Grease is the word.''

Chorus Girls: Grease is the word, is the word that you heard…

Trevor: It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.

Trevor and Chorus Girls: Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion…

Trevor: Grease is the way we are feeling.

This is a life of illusion, wrapped up in trouble…

Chorus Girls: Trouble!

Trevor: …laced in confusion –

Trevor and Chorus Girls: What’re we doin’ here?

We take the pressure, and we throw away conventionality, belongs to yesterday!

Trevor: There is a chance that we can make it so far, we start believin’ now that we can be who we are – Grease is the word.

Chorus Girls: Grease is the word, is the word that you heard...

Trevor: It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.

Trevor and Chorus Girls: Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion...

Trevor: Grease is the way we are feeling.

Trevor and Chorus Girls: Grease is the word, is the word that you heard...

Trevor: It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.

Chorus Girls: It's got meaning!

Trevor and Chorus Girls: Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion...

Trevor: ''Grease is the way we are feeling! Grease is the word, is the word, is the word…''
