Some day I´m going to grow up And be every man´s dream Some day I´m going to grow up And forget this sad little me I´m going to shine in the spotlight Wear sexy clothes Be somebody everybody wants to meet And no one ever really knows No one will ever know me
I´m an actress through and through And to my bones I´m an actress through and through And to my bones
Critics will adore me At least they will at first But you see I already know this So it can´t never really hurt And if it does, I´m an actress I´ll play it nonchalant In the total scheme of things it´s insignificant (sure I can take the knocks)
Cause I´m an actress through and through And to my bones I´m an actress through and through And to my bones
I may not be that pretty now But who´s the referee Standards of beauty Will be redefined because of me
And then they´ll be the scandals Everywhere my name Men will jump from balconies And I´ll just shrug and take the blame (yeah, they´ll say I died for love)
Cause I´m an actress through and through And to my bones Well, I´m an actress through and through And to my bones
My acceptance speech will be a milestone Never will such a star Have ever graced the microphone And of course I´ll thank my agent The way they always do Though I could have done it without him And that goes for the Academy too And the makeup people and the lighting designers and everybody else
Cause I´m an actress throughand through And to my bones I´m an actress through and through And to my bones I´m an actress yeah, yeah, yeah
I´ll be gracious to the lesser stars And generous to the unknowns And if another actress threatens My position on the throne
Well, I don´t know exactly what I´ll do I don´t exactly know But I know that it could turn into One of my most poignant roles Everyone will have their handkerchiefs out And they´ll have to leave the theater early And then they´ll go home And what´ll they do? They`ll have a big glass of alcohol
Cause I´m an actress through and through And to my bones And if I make it to the top I won´t be overthrown I´m an actress ah, yeah, yeah Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
