Lyrics
I got 36 expressions
Sweet as pie and 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 they're 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
Well, they're gonna hear a voice
A silver flute (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
They'll cheer each toot
(Yay, she's terrific)
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
Some ain't got it, not a lump
I'm a great big clump of talent
Laugh!
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
You think beautiful girls are gonna stay in style forever?
I should say not
Any minute now, they're gonna be out
Finished, then it'll be my turn
Who is the pip with pizzazz?
Who is all ginger and jazz?
Who is as glamorous 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 gunshot, and bam!
Hey, Mr. 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 (light up)
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 ya ain't, I'll tell ya one more time
You'll bet your last dime
In all of the world, so far
I'm the greatest, greatest star!
