Marc Shaiman - The 20th Century Fox Mambo lyrics

[Katharine McPhee] 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 pa** 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 cinemascope Take a gamble 'Cause it's safe to bet Mr. Zanuck ain't seen nothing yet When we're finished He'll never forget This 20th Century Fox For fame Play her game Change your name To the 20th Century Fox Make it up Shake it up Make me feel Like the main attraction Change the clothes Fix the nose And then 5, 6, 7, 8 Action! [Chorus] Action! [Katharine McPhee] Now I'm blonde But I ain't so dumb [Chorus] No! [Katharine McPhee] Hollywood will be Under my thumb [Chorus] Yes! [Katharine McPhee] I'll change partners Until I become The 20th Century Fox Mambo!
