Lyrics

At Paramount it's "Ooh la la"

The Warner Brothers' Cha Cha Cha

And L.B. Mayer loves his schmaltz

So MGM 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, boy 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

I'll do whatever my teacher suggests

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-ema-scope

Take a gamble 'cause it's safe to bet

Mr. Zanuck ain't seen nothing yet

When we're finished he'll never forget

This 20th Century Fox

For fame, play her 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 five, six, seven, eight, 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!
