I'm The Greatest Star
I've got 36 expressions
Sweet as pie to tough as leather
And that's six expressions more than all them Barrymores put together
Instead of just kicking me why don't they give me a lift?
Well, it must be a plot
'Cause their scared that I got, such a gift?
Well, I'm miffed
'Cause I'm
The greatest star
I am by far
But no one knows it, wait
They're gonna hear a voice
A silver flute (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
They'll cheer each toot (Hey, that kid is terrific, hmm)
When I expose it
(Now can't ya see to look at me that)
I'm a natural Camille
As Camille I just feel
I've so much to offer
(Hey, listen kid I know I'd be divine because)
I'm a natural cougher
(Ahoo, aheh, ahay)
Some ain't got it, not a lump
I'm a great big clump of talent
Laugh (Hahahaha)
They'll bend in half
(Did you ever hear the story about the traveling salesman?)
A thousand jokes (Stick around for the jokes)
A thousand faces
I reiterate
When you're gifted, then you're gifted
These are facts
I've got no axe to grind
Hey, whaddaya blind?
In all of the world so far
I'm the greatest star
No autographs, please
Do you think beautiful girls are gonna stay in style forever?
I should say not
Any minute now they're gonna be out
Finished
And then it'll be my turn
Who is the pip with pizzazz?
Who is all ginger and jazz?
Who is as glamourous as?
Who's an american beauty rose?
With an american beauty nose
And ten american beauty toes?
Eye on the target and wham
One shot, one gun shot and bam
Hey Mister Keeney
Here I am
I'm the greatest star
I am by far
But no one knows it
That's why I was born
I'll blow my horn
'Til someone blows in
I'll light up like a light
Right up like a light
I'll flicker then flare up
All the world's gonna stare up
Looking down you'll never see me
Try the sky 'cause that'll be me
I can make 'em cry
I can make 'em sigh
Someday they'll clamor for my drama
Have you guessed yet
Who's the best yet?
If you ain't, I'll tell ya one more time
You'll bet your last dime
In all of the world so far
I am the greatest, greatest
Star
Sweet as pie to tough as leather
And that's six expressions more than all them Barrymores put together
Instead of just kicking me why don't they give me a lift?
