The 20th Century Fox Mambo Lyrics – Katherine McPhee

The 20th Century Fox Mambo Text

---

Karen:

At Paramount it's "Oh la la"
The Warner Bros. "Cha cha cha"
And L.B. Mayer loves his schmaltz
So M.G.M. 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 boys and girls - make me over

In this factory where dreams can 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 pass the test
I'll do whatever my teachers suggest
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 Cin-emascope

Take a gamble cuz it's safe to bet
Mr. Zanick ain't seen nothin' yet
When we're finished he'll never forget
This 20th Century Fox

(For fame - play the 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! (Action!)

Now I'm blonde but I ain't so dumb (No)
Hollywood will be under my thumb (Yes)
I'll change partners until I become

The 20th Century Fox
Mambo!
