Lyrics[]
Ella: Right and wrong, cruel and kind, who's to say?
Chloe: There's a code that I believe in
Ella: Every choice, you're gonna find there's shades of grey
Chloe: There are rules for a reason
Ella: Robin Hood (Chloe: Yeah?)
Awesome guy, (Chloe: Yeah!)
You'd agree?
Chloe: But he stole for the poor
Ella: So you could then cross that line, theoretically
Chloe: I don't know you anymore
Ella: The decision's always up to you
When there's only one thing left to do
Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
Chloe: Okay, but there's some universal truths you must recognize?
Ella: Like?
Chloe: Valiant knights, pure and good, guaranteed
Ella: That depends on what they're fighting for
Chloe: Creepy witches selling potions for evil deeds
Ella: She could have kids she's providing for
Chloe: If your good-good things will come to you
Ella: That broken vase shows that's not true
Chloe: That's not fair!
Ella: But that's how it's going
You're a nice girl, but your princess is showing
Chloe: Life's a complicated game, it seems
Ella: Sometimes you can't afford to play it clean
Gotta get your hands dirty, (Chloe: I don't know)
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty, (Chloe: Maybe so)
Give it your worst, give it your best
Both: Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right, right
Alright, alright
Chloe: But just how far do you go?
How much do you compromise?
Oh, tell me, how do you know?
Where do you draw the line?
Ella: There's nothing I wouldn't do
If my heart tells me it's right
If it's for someone I love
If it's to save a life
Chloe: To save your life
Both: Gotta get your hands dirty
Just jump headfirst into the mess
Gotta get your hands dirty
Give it your worst, give it your best
Bad and good, shouldn't and should
Isn't always black and white
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Gotta get your hands dirty to get it right
Alright, alright
