(Listen)
2
I've got thirty-six expressions--
3
Sweet as pie to tough as leather,
4
And that's six expressions more
5
Than all them, ah, Barrymores put together.
6
Instead of just kicking me
7
Why don't they give me a lift?
8
Well,it must be a plot,
9
'Cause they're scared that I got
10
Such a gift--well, I'm miffed--'cause
11
I'm the greatest star--
12
I am by far, but no one knows it!
13
Wait, they're gonna hear a voice,
14
A silver flute--ah hah, ah hah--
15
They'll cheer each toot
16
(Hey! That kid is terrific!)
17
When I expose it!
18
Now, can't you see to look at me
19
That I'm a natural Camille?
20
As Camille I just feel
21
I've got so much to offer.
22
Hey listen kid, I know I'd be divine because
23
I'm a natural cougher.
24
(coughs)
25
Some ain't got it--not a lump,
26
I'm a great big clump of talent!
27
Laugh!
28
They'll bend in half.
29
(Did you ever hear the story about the traveling salesman?)
30
A thousand jokes:
31
Shtick around for the jokes,
32
A thousand faces. I reiterate,
33
When you're gifted,
34
Then you're gifted,
35
These are facts--I got no axe to grind.
36
Hey, what are you--blind?
37
In all of the world so far
38
I'm the greatest star!
39
(speaking)
40
No autographs please.
41
You think beautiful girls are gonna stay a star forever?
42
I should say not!
43
Any minute now they're gonna be out!...Finished!
44
Then it'll be my turn.
45
(back to singing)
46
Who is the pip with piz-azz?
47
Who is all ginger and jazz?
48
Who is as glamorous as?
49
Who's an American Beauty rose
50
With an American Beauty nose,
51
And ten American Beaty toes,
52
Eyes on the target, and wham--
53
One shot, one gun shot and BAM!
54
Hey, Mr. Keeney, here I am!
55
I'm the greatest star,
56
I am by far,
57
But no one knows it!
58
That's why I was born--
59
I'll blow my horn
60
Till someone knows it!
61
I'll light up like a light
62
Right up like a light
63
I'll flicker, then flare up (ha ha)
64
All the world's gonna stare up
65
Lookin' down
66
You'll never see me--
67
Try the sky,
68
'Cause that'll be me.
69
I can make 'em cry,
70
I can make 'em sigh,
71
Someday they'll clamor
72
For my dram-er.
73
Have you guessed yet,
74
Who's the best yet?
75
If ya ain't I'll tell ya one more time.
76
You bet your last dime
77
In all of the world so far
78
I am the greatest, greatest star!
