Wouldn't You Like to Be on Broadway?

Why a girl like you oughta be on the stage

Well, how could I get a job on the stage?

Easy as walking around the block, for a girl that's got all that you've got

Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway

And go dancing at the Zanzibar

And have an up-and-coming boyfriend

Who can make any course in par?

Hey, kid?

Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway

And wear some Bergdorf Goodman clothes

Red alligator shoes, a bright gold anklet

And seventeen dozen nylon hose?

Hey, kid?

Wouldn't you like to see your name

Up in the bright lights, in the white lights that gleam and glow?

Wouldn't you like to be the leading lady

In my heart, but also in some Broadway show?

Wouldn't you like some personal promotion

To a niche on the Great White Way?

Wouldn't you? Hey, kid?

How about it? Hey, kid?

Wouldn't you like to be on Broadway?

It's just a few blocks over

I know the way

Hey, kid? It's easy

I'll show you the way

No

Why not?

I just don't think that's the way I want things to be, that's all
