Can I have a coffee, please...

...with milk and Splenda?

- Sure. What size? - Large.

Here you go.

Can you believe I'm playing the Garden?

Are we ready? Thanks, man.

Look at that.

Sold out.

Looks like Lady Gaga.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. It is.

- Hello, Lady Gaga. - I can't believe it's you.

- Nice to meet you. - Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

I love you.

Lady Gaga!

Do you know how many times I came to this arena?

And now they're opening these gates up for us.

Welcome, HBO, to the Monster Ball.

I don't know. I get, like, so...

I just get so revved up when I do these benchmark shows, you know?

Yeah.

I just don't want my fans to ever feel...

I just sometimes feel like a loser still, you know?

I know it's crazy because it's like, we're at the Garden.

But I still sometimes feel like a fucking loser kid in high school.

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.

I just want to be a queen for them, you know...

...and sometimes I don't feel like one.

I'm gonna marry the night

I won't give up on my life

I'm a warrior queen

Live passionately tonight

Run, run Her kiss is a vampire grin

Vampire grin Vampire grin

The moon lights her way While she's howlin' at him

Howlin' at him, howlin' at him

She looks good

But her boyfriend says She's a tramp

She's a tramp She's a vamp

But she still does her dance

She's a tramp She's a vamp

But she still kills the dance

Okay, New York.

I wanna take a ride on your disco stick

Are you all standing up?

I don't know if you've heard...

...but I have a pretty tremendous dick.

So come on...

Disco, disco, disco

...get your dicks out.

Because I know they've got some pretty big cock here in New York City.

Welcome to the Monster Ball.

Now dance, you motherfuckers!

Put your paws up. Now jump.

My...

...name...

...is...

...Lady Gaga!

And welcome...

...to the last...

...of five shows...

...at Madison Square Garden.

I feel so blessed.

You have no idea.

I grew up 20 blocks from here...

...and I watched every name go up on that marquee...

...year after year, month after month.

And I used to dream that one day I'd see my name in lights.

So thank you so much.

Thank you for buying a ticket to see my show.

And for those of you who didn't pay for your tickets...

...I want my money back.

I'm just kidding.

You know, I didn't used to be brave.

In fact, I wasn't very brave at all.

But you have made me brave, little monsters.

And New York made me brave.

So now...

...I'm gonna be brave for you.

Tonight I want you to forget all of your insecurities.

I want you to reject anyone or anything...

...that's ever made you feel like you don't belong or don't fit in.

Or made you feel like you're not good enough...

...or pretty enough, or thin enough.

Or can't sing well enough, or dance well enough...

...or write a song well enough.

Or like you'll never win a Grammy.

Or you'll never sell out Madison Square Garden!

You just remember that you're a goddamn superstar!

And you were born this way!

May tonight be your liberation of all those things.

Because I used to pick up my leather boots...

...on that street...

...and I would go down the stairs...

...to the 9 Train.

And I'd take the 9 Train downtown.

And then I'd get on the I Train to go across town.

And I'd go to dance class.

And I would pray, and I would dream...

...that someday, one person would believe in me.

So when you leave here tonight...

...know that at least one person believes in you.

Hello, purple unicorn.

That is the most fabulous gay unicorn that I have ever seen.

He has a rainbow horn. He's purple.

He has neon hooves. That's very exciting.

The only thing better than a unicorn is a gay unicorn.

Oh, you know what that means.

All the New York gays Came out to play

And some came from New Jersey

But we don't care 'Cause it's all the same

And we were born this way

Yeah!

I don't know what I'm gonna do with all of you.

You see, I told my friends about the Monster Ball.

I told them that the Monster Ball would set them free.

So we got into my car...

...but my car broke down in Brooklyn.

So then we got onto the subway...

...onto the # Train...

...which always gets me where I need to go.

But the subway's left us off in this very strange place.

And I just have no fucking clue where we are.

You think I should ask my friends for some help?

You know, my deepest and most loyal friends?

You know...

...all my New York and tristate-area gays?

This one's for the boys and the girls tonight.

Celebrate your gay pride.

There, sugar baby Saw you twice at the pop show

Does anybody know what I really, really hate?

I hate money.

It's hot as hell in here, New York.

But nobody can ever make me take off my leather.

I'm just a bad kid.

I don't want your money.

I want your soul, honey.

Damn, I love the Jag The jet and the mansion

Baby, when you tear me to pieces That's money, honey

Kisses That's M-O-N-E-Y

So sexy, I

How are you doing tonight?

This is so crazy for me, just completely psycho.

I used to sit usually in the bleachers, you know, in the back.

And I would sit with my mom, you know, who would take me to see shows.

And I'd watch some other bitch sing and dance on the stage all night...

...that I wanted to be.

And I would say, "I wish I was that bitch on that stage."

So just so you know...

...someday you'll be up here instead of me...

...and I'll be sitting in the back cheering all you guys on.

Hello?

Beyonc�?

She's always interrupting the middle of my show.

Hello, hello, baby, you called? I can't hear a thing

And you're not gonna reach My telephone

I just want to say thank you to all of you for being here tonight...

...because HBO is filming for our HBO special.

And it's just this really amazing night for all of us.

And I'm so happy. I can't even begin to tell you...

...how grateful I am that you're all here.

And it's really funny...

...because my favourite thing about the Monster Ball...

...is that everybody gets really drunk...

...and vomits on each other and has a good time.

So you don't know this...

...but in between the sets when the videos are playing...

...I can actually see you from backstage.

And I see everybody running to go get drinks really quickly.

I'm always laughing because I think, "These drunk assholes.

That's all they wanna do, is drink and have a good time."

So in light of watching all of you have a good time...

...I would like to dedicate this song to all the drunk assholes in my life.

This is called "Speechless."

Oh, I

I can't believe what you said to me

Last night we were alone

You threw your hands up

Baby, you gave up, you gave up

I can't believe how you looked at me

With your James Dean glossy eyes

Oh, in your tight jeans with your long hair

And your cigarette-stained lies

Could we fix you if you broke?

Was your punch line just a joke?

I'll never talk again

Oh, boy, you've left me speechless

You've left me speechless So speechless

And I'll never love again

Oh, friends, you've left me speechless

You've left me speechless So speechless

And my make...

Every night, this fucking makeup falls off right at that same lyric.

And on another note...

...not to blow up too many people's spots tonight, but Liza Minnelli is here.

I thought you all might want to stand up for her...

...because, you know, it is Liza.

And Marisa Tomei is here tonight.

And I usually would never tell you guys who's here tonight...

...but the reason I'm telling you...

...is because these two women influenced me so much...

...when I was in theater school.

Because I went to Tisch, you know, at NYU.

And what used to happen was the teachers would go:

"Well, your voice is too pop."

And when you sing pop music, your voice is too theater.

And, you know...

...you're never gonna play the heroine.

And you're never gonna play the blond, you know.

You're never gonna play the ing�nue.

You'll never be the main character.

You're never gonna be the star.

"Because you have dark hair and you're too ethnic."

So I used to say:

"Well, what about Liza?"

And then I'd get to acting class...

...and they'd always pull out a script for me...

...that Marisa had played in a movie...

And they'd say, "You'll play these kinds of...

These kinds of really ballsy women roles."

And you know what? There's never a role other than that...

...that I'm ever gonna wanna play.

So thank you, Marisa, for always playing that role for us.

After all the drinks

And the bars that we've been to

Would you give it all up?

Could I give it all up for you?

After all the boys and the girls That we've been through

Would you give it all up?

I've never given up

If I promise, boy, to you

Well, I'll never talk again, no

Oh, I'll never love again

Oh, I'll never write a song

Won't even sing along

Why you so speechless?

Speechless

Speechless

So thank you for giving me...

...two bad bitches to look up to.

So speechless, baby

All right, you wanna hear a new one?

This is from my new album, Born This Way.

This is called "Yo� and I."

It's been a long time Since I came around

Been a long time But I'm back in town

And this time I'm not leaving without you

You taste like whiskey When you kiss me, oh

I'd give anything again To be your baby doll

This time I'm not leaving without you

He says sit back down Where you belong

In the corner of my bar With your high heels on

Sit back down on the couch Where we made love the first time

Something, something about This place

Something about lonely nights And my lipstick on your face

Something, something about My cool Nebraska guy

Yeah, something about, baby, you and I

It's been two years Since I let you go

Couldn't listen to a joke Or rock 'n' roll

Muscle cars drove a truck Right through my heart

On my birthday you sang me "A Heart of Gold"

With the guitar humming In overload

This time I'm not leaving Without you

Oh, oh

In the corner of a bar With your high heels on

I'm not leaving

Without

You

Oh!

And so as my friends and I travelled...

...further and further down the Glitter Way...

...we ran into a magical angel with a beautiful black harp.

And she said that she knew just the music to play...

...to get us closer and closer to the Monster Ball...

...at Madison Square Garden.

Oh, what's that thing?

What's that thing?

Way up in the sky?

It's very beautiful but very strange.

Is that a rainbow?

No, it can't be.

Little monsters, it's a twister.

Monsters...

The way she moves The way she walks

I touch myself, can't get enough

And in the silence of the night

Through all the tears And all the lies

I touch myself and it's all right

Just give in

Don't give up, baby

Open up your heart And your mind to me

- Just - Just

- Know when - Know when

That glass is empty

That the world is gonna bend, yeah

Happy in the club With a bottle of red wine

Stars in our eyes 'Cause we're having a good time

It's left my friends and I off in a very strange place.

A deep, dark and evil place.

In the deepest, darkest part...

...of Central Park.

Put your paws up.

I asked my girlfriend If she'd seen you around before

She mumbled something While we got down on the floor

We might've fucked Not really sure

I asked my girlfriend If she'd seen you around before

She mumbled something While we got down on the floor

Could I love him?

Put your paws up, New York.

Could I love him?

Could I love him?

Could I love him?

Do you think I'm sexy?

Because I think you're sexy.

I used to get bullied a lot in high school...

...by these really awful, mean girls...

...who weighed about 30 pounds less than I did.

And it used to make me feel really bad about myself.

But I'm here to tell you...

...that someday you'll have...

...a stage upon which to stand and sing and dance...

...in front of all those who bullied you before.

Do you feel sexy?

You know, I'm kind of like Tinker Bell.

You know how Tinker Bell will die if you don't clap for her?

Do you want me to die?

Scream for me!

Some people would like me to die.

But I'm not going anywhere.

Does anyone know what I hate almost as much as I hate money?

- Truth! - The truth!

Yes, I hate the truth.

The French call it "la v�rit�."

In fact, I hate the truth so much...

...I'd prefer a giant dose of bullshit any day over the truth.

So, mes petits monstres...

Jesus

Jesus, are you listenin'?

Jesus over there in heaven

Jesus, I'm confused.

Jesus, some people say that you only love a certain kind of person...

...with certain kind of beliefs or background or sexual orientation.

But, Jesus, you have blessed me.

And every night, myself and the entire House of Gaga...

...bleed to death in front of 24, OOO people...

...talking about love and unity.

So I'm quite certain that Jesus must love everybody!

Jesus loves...

...everybody.

Show me your teeth

Show me your teeth

Show me your teeth Teeth, teeth

Teeth

You are such an asshole.

You know that?

You are such an asshole on that instrument.

You are so goddamn disrespectful on that guitar.

Who taught you to play guitar like that, Jesus?

Show me your teeth Teeth, teeth

Teeth

Everybody, this is Michael.

Michael's from Germany.

You're so cute.

That's so nice.

I like Michael...

...because Michael likes girls from New York.

I also like Michael...

...because Michael likes boys from New York.

Just like Jesus, Michael loves everybody.

So come on, Kern.

Kern's a bad bass player.

And I told them last night when they came to see my show...

...I said when I...

When I auditioned my band, I closed my eyes.

I didn't look at them when they came in. I closed my eyes.

I said, "I don't want to know what they look like.

I wanna hear how they feel."

And when I heard this man play the bass...

...I knew it was his destiny.

Show me your teeth

Show me your teeth

Michael.

I don't care who you are

Or what you believe

All I care about is How you feel about me

Show me your teeth

I love you too.
