Supremes - I'm The Greatest Star lyrics
rate me(Jule Styne/Bob Merrill) <br />
<br />
Hey, can we have your autograph?<br />
My autograph?<br />
I'm nobody<br />
But wait a minute<br />
<br />
I've got 36 expressions<br />
Sweet as pie to tough as leather<br />
And that's six expressions more <br />
Than all the Barrymores put together<br />
Only six?<br />
<br />
Instead of kicking me<br />
I don't think they give me a lift<br />
I think it's a plot<br />
'Cause they're scared that I got <br />
Such a gift, I'm miffed<br />
<br />
'Cause I'm the greatest star<br />
I am by far, but nobody knows it<br />
Wait, they're gonna hear a voice<br />
A silver flute<br />
They'll cheer each toot<br />
When I expose it<br />
<br />
Can't you see the look at me<br />
That I'm a natural Camille?<br />
As Camille I just feel<br />
I have so much to offer<br />
I know I'll be divine because<br />
I'm a natural cougher<br />
<br />
Some ain't got it, not a lump<br />
She a great big clump of talent<br />
Laugh, they'll bend in half<br />
<br />
Did I tell the story about the traveling salesman?<br />
A thousand laughs<br />
Stick around for 'em folks<br />
A thousand faces, I reiterate<br />
When you're gifted<br />
Then you're gifted<br />
<br />
These are facts, I have no axe to grind<br />
Hey, what are they blind<br />
In all of the world so far<br />
I'm the greatest star<br />
<br />
Who is the pip with pizazz?<br />
Who is all ginger and jazz?<br />
Who is as glamorous as?<br />
<br />
Who's an American beauty rose<br />
With that American beauty nose<br />
And ten American beauty toes<br />
<br />
Eyes on the target and wham<br />
One shot, one gun shot and bam<br />
Hey, world, here I am!<br />
<br />
I'm the greatest star<br />
I am by far<br />
But nobody knows it<br />
That's why I was born<br />
I'll blow my horn<br />
'Till somebody hears it<br />
<br />
I'll light up like a light<br />
Right up like a light<br />
I'll flicker and flare up<br />
All the world's gonna stare up<br />
Looking down <br />
You'll never see me<br />
Try the sky<br />
'Cause that'll be me<br />
<br />
I can make 'em cry<br />
I can make 'em sigh<br />
Someday they'll clamor <br />
For my dram-er<br />
<br />
Have you guessed yet<br />
Who's the best yet<br />
If you ain't I'll tell you one more time<br />
You bet yer last dime<br />
In all the world so far<br />
She's the greatest, greatest<br />
<br />
Funny, life is far from sunny<br />
When the laugh is over<br />
And the jokes on you<br />
Well, a girl's gotta have a sense of humor<br />
That's one things you really needs for sure<br />
When you're a funny girl<br />
The fellow said "A funny girl"<br />
Funny, how it ain't so funny girl<br />
<br />
They're the luckiest people in the world<br />
With one person, one very special person<br />
A feeling deep in your soul says<br />
You were half, now you're whole<br />
No more hunger and thirst<br />
But first be a person who needs people<br />
People who need people<br />
Are the luckiest people in the world
