The 20th Century Fox Mambo

Come on, boys and girls

Make me over

In this factory where dreams can come 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 (Ah)

I'll do whatever my teacher suggests (Ah)

I can do it clothed or undressed

The 20th Century Fox Mambo (Mambo)

I just got off the phone with Susan

She doesn't think Ivy is up to the task of rehearsing today

Shoot me, fire me, put me out of my misery

Here I am

You're late

Stage fright, it was brutal

There's no such thing as stage fright in rehearsal

You see a stage?

No stage, no fright

You got that?

Hit it

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-ema-scope

Ow, you're hurting me

I'm sorry, you were facing the wrong way

I was turning

If you paid half as much attention to me as you do the director, maybe you would've noticed

I'm done for today

Where's Karen?

I'm here

Five, six

Five, six, seven, eight

Take a gamble 'cause it's safe to bet (Ah)

Mr. Zanuck ain't seen nothing yet (Ah)

When we're finished he'll never forget

This 20th Century Fox

Make it up, shake it up (Woo)

Make me feel like the main attraction (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Change the clothes, fix the nose

And then five, six, seven, eight, action (Action)

The answer is no

And what was the question?

Do I like the new pages?

We think Marilyn's coming across as difficult

But she was famously difficult

I'm sure you're aware of that

I am strong, that's often interpreted as difficult

I'm sure you're aware of that

The thing is we've spent two weeks rewriting the show

Marilyn, warts and all

And now you're trying to tie a keeper on those warts and call 'em superpowers

Thank you, Nigel

I appreciate you explaining it to me like I'm a child, I really do

Can I just say one little thing?

Apparently not

You've taken six pages to say what could be said in three lines

Less is more

Wow, wow

Let's at least read it through

I'm done for today

I'm confused

Is that Ivy being a monster

Or is that Ivy playing Marilyn being a monster?

There are many layers to this particular shit show

Karen, you're on

I'm on

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
