Neil Patrick Harris - Nobody's Asian in the Movies lyrics

[MAURISSA] I wrote all Penny's lines and her song, you know I even sang her part up on the demo But when it's time to cast the show Did they want somebody yellow – hell no Nobody's Asian in the movies Nobody's Asian on TV If there is a part there for us It's the groupie in the chorus That's me I begged and pleaded please don't pa** me by They say, hey give us a hand Go stand in the back with that fat guy My role, though be it brief, at least It isn't Viet Cong, it's comic relief Nobody's Asian in the movies Nobody's Asian on TV If there is a part there for us It's a ninja, a physician Or goofy mathematician Or groupie in the chorus That's me Who do they want before they want an Asian? A Mexican Who do they want before they want an Asian? A Black Who do they want before they want an Asian? A Persian, or a Cajun, or an Indian Or an American-Indian played by a Mexican Or if you're lucky someone Asian Like me [JED] But Maurissa, movies couldn't even be made without Asians We need them to play the parts we're not willing to [MAURISSA] You're right, Jed! Without the Asians in the movies Without Asians on TV Who'd play the goofy mathematician The computer technician A wise old healer from Japan A short but wealthy businessman Sell Korean groceries Do your laundry thank you, prrease We're the victims of a crime We'll be loving you long time If your movie is a bore just Watch the groupie in the chorus That's me [MAURISSA] I guess my parents will be proud of me after all [JED] What does your dad do again? [MAURISSA] Oh! He's a nerdy, funny scientist
