People Like Us

She wants to be onstage, front page. 
I'll sign the dotted line; 
You know, I'm gonna shine. 
She just needs that big break, that great take 
To start my new career; 
You'll see that I'm sincere 
And I won't blow it. 


Uh, Mister Director? Please... 
Don't reject her 'til you've heard her read 
For the lead in your new production. 
Mister Producer? Please... 
Don't seduce her 'til you've heard her sing 
And everything in your new production. 


She got to be hot stuff, real tough. 
I wanna be photographed, 
Asked for my autograph. 
I don't want to keep house for a spouse. 
I'd much rather be the girl; 
I need much more to be the pearl 
Of the movies. 
I'd much rather be the girl; 
I need much more to be the pearl 
Of the movies. 
I'd much rather be the girl, 
Need much more to be the pearl 
Of the movies.
