Everybody's Talking About Jamie: The Original West End Cast Recording
Work of Art
You belong in the spotlight
On the wall of the Tate
In a ten-megawatt light
'Cause your brushwork's so great
You're the next phase in feminine
You're a Lichtenstein dot
You're a bed with Tracy Emin in
You're Grayson Perry's next pot
Work of art, work of art
You're a perfect work of art
Mona Lisa, this is she, Sir
With a smile to melt your heart
Work of art, work of art
You're a perfect work of art
Like Picasso, so kick ass, oh
I just don't know where to start
Work of art
Work of art
You're Yoko Ono on vinyl (oh, you just raised the bar)
You're a canvas that's blank (watch your value increase)
You're a Duchamp urinal (see how precious you are)
You're half a dead cow in a tank (you're the school masterpiece)
Work of art, work of art
You're a perfect work of art
Mona Lisa, this is she, Sir
With a smile to melt your heart
Work of art, work of art
You're a perfect work of art
Like Picasso, so kick ass, oh
I just don't know where to start
Work of art
I'd teach you a lesson, Jamie
I told you all your best chance at life was to keep things real
But there's always one who thinks I don't mean them
And surprise, surprise Jamie New, it's you!
The work of art!
But a work of art is nothing if it's not put on show, Jamie
Come on, then
Put on a show!
The glamour!
The light!
Center of attention!
This is it, Jamie
I hope it's everything you've ever wanted
This is everything I ever wanted
My stage
My audience
My dancers
All eyes on me
You wanna look? Keep looking
I'll be in drag tonight at Legs 11
So come along if you dare
You're just a boy in a dress!
Oh, Dean
A boy in a dress is something to be laughed at
But a drag queen is something to be feared
And I am a drag queen!
Yes you are, yes you are, yes you are, oh
You're the biz, you're the biz, you're the biz, yeah
Superstar, superstar, superstar, oh
You're the shiz, you're the shiz, the shiz yeah
You're so neat, you're so neat, you're so neat, yo
Off the chart, off the chart, the chart, yeah
Super sweet, super sweet, super sweet, oh
Work of art, work of art, work of art, yeah
Work of art, work of art, work of art, yeah
Work of art, work of art
Yes, I am your work of art
You won't shame me, you should frame me
I'm a Jamie work of art
Work of art, work of art
Gonna blow your world apart
I'm offending, I'm a trending, gender-bending
Gender-blending, gender-pending
Gender-ending and transcending
Work of art
On the wall of the Tate
In a ten-megawatt light
'Cause your brushwork's so great
