Well I'll be damned
No I won't be damned
Because I have been damned
And I won't be damned anymore!
I walked out
He didn't walk out
It was me who walked out
It was me closing the door
"Hello, Operator?" I'd like to place a long distance call to a Mr.
Billy Rose in Cleveland Ohio. At the Cleveland Hotel. Um, no, no, no,
no. I'll wait."
Billy's an alley cat that's for sure
Nick's from a horsier cla**
But I'd rather be with a cat's meow
Than a genuine thouroughbred horse's a**!
"Um, that's alright. No. No message. Thank you."
One is fantasy, one is real
One is make believe, one is real
One is picture book,
More like comic book
One is real
Billy is real
I should have seen that before
All my life on the stage
I'm a big success
All my life off the stage
What a mess!
Oh what a mess!
All my life on the stage
How they cheer the clown
All my life off the stage
I kept closing out of town
When I'm up there I'm a great big star
And I get the heftiest lift
Howdy-Do!
Up there I'm a great big star
A solid and qualified hit
I'm gonna take what I do up there
And I'm gonna do it down here!
Quick as a lightning flash
I'm moving straight ahead
I'm gonna be a smash
I'm gonna knock 'em dead.......
