Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Funny girl
You look so unassuming
Right up until
The room you're captivating
Starts to fill with gut-busting laughter
You're transformed into a five foot Cleopatra
[Verse 2]
Funny girl
Your schedule's pretty crazy
Doing interviews
For the new live action Cathy
Could you pencil in an industry outsider?
Yeah, you're young but, baby, you're not getting younger
[Verse 3]
Funny girl
[Verse 4]
For once your timing wasn't great
I must have missed you by a day
But, baby, things have turned out pretty good this way
And I don't think either of us yearns to share the stage
[Verse 5]
Funny girl
You seem pretty indifferent
But you knocked me out
When you charmed the pants off Letterman
Oh, I wish you'd flash that manic smile in my direction
And let me lead you to your seat like we were old friends
[Verse 6]
Funny girl
