Down on the casting couch
|
A star is gonna be born
|
A star with the stature of a Harlow
|
Who's doomed
|
And groomed to enrapture
|
All her co-stars, and stuntmen, the co-stars
|
Oh, let there be lights, action, sound
|
Lights, action, sound - Roll 'em!
|
|
Out in the mezzanine
|
On the arm of a dumb marine
|
Her beauty looks out like a trailer
|
Norman Mailer
|
Waits to nail her
|
He's under the bed
|
And he's waiting for her to be dead
|
He's out on the patio
|
With his polaroid and scenario
|
And he's armed and he's dangerously....
|
|
Close was the weather
|
When I was a kid
|
She gave me a feather from her gown
|
To cool me down, to cool me down
|
And I was the galley slave
|
Who lost his heart when the ship went down
|
|
Lights, action, sound
|
Roll 'em
|
|
I had a part in the talkies
|
When you were a little girl
|
I've taken Lassie for walkies
|
When she was the pup that Vaudeville threw up
|
And destiny lead her
|
Hand in paw to somewhere
|
In Hollywood
|
|
That's crazy, a dog up in Beverly Hills
|
Crazy, crazy
|
|
La, la, la, la, la.... (You better lie low)
|
