The 20th Century Fox Mambo Lyrics - The Music Of Smash - Smash Cast

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 sin. 

Let's go! 

Take a gamble 

'Cause it's safe to bet. 

Mr. Zanick 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 5, 6, 7, 8, 

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 

Your 20th Century Fox 

Mambo!
