Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame
And a face and a name to remember
The past fades away
Because as of this day
Norma Jean's gone
She's moving on
Her smile and your fantasies play a duet
That will make you forget where you are
The music starts playing
It's the beat of her heart saying:
Let me be your star
In this factory where dreams can come true
Are you ready to make someone new
You're the team that must teach me to do
The 20th Century Fox Mambo
Done the homework and I'll pass the test
I'll do whatever my teachers suggest
I can do it clothed or undressed
The 20th Century Fox Mambo
Make it up, shake it up
Let the fantasies begin
Here's the dope
To get cast, change the past
Make the light just right for Cin-emascope
Someday they'll write lots of books
About our fame and glory
But if all their reports are just movies and sports
They'll be missing the whole story (missing the whole story)
Cause history is made at night
So close the books, turn off the light and listen
Let my heart be the teacher
No one here to disapprove
As we review the lessons you've been missing
Let the moon be our only light
Cause history is made at night
(When the season's over, the play won't end)
'Cause a baseball diamond is a girl's best friend
Yes, my style and my fashion'll
Elevate the national
Pastime!
