Smash Cast - The 20th Century Fox Mambo Lyrics

[Marilyn:]
At Paramount it's "Ooh la la"
The Warner Brothers' Cha cha cha
And L.B. Mayer loves his schmaltz
So MGM made the great waltz
But the 20th Century Foxtrot
It's precious, but precious!
It's not hot
To make the big boys hire me
Please make that rhythm fiery

Come on, boy and girls
Make me over!

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 teacher suggests
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 Cinema Scope

Take a gamble
'Cause it's safe to bet
Mr. Zanick ain't seen nothing yet
When we're finished
He'll never forget
This 20th Century Fox

[Ensemble:]
For fame play her game
Change your name
To the 20th Century Fox

Make it up
Shake it up

[Marilyn:]
Make me feel
Like the main attraction
Change the clothes
Fix the nose
And then 5, 6, 7, 8
Action!

[Ensemble:]
Action!

[Marilyn:]
Now I'm blonde
But I ain't so dumb

[Ensemble:]
No!

[Marilyn:]
Hollywood will be
Under my thumb

[Ensemble:]
Yes!

[Marilyn:]
I'll change partners
Until I become
Your 20th Centurty Fox
Mambo!
