truly content - stephen sondheim lyrics
[ella]
though there’s soot on my shoes
there’s a beautiful dream in my heart
and a life in the flues
is a life to lament
if i only could be
a guhlamorous movie star
just a glamorous movie star
i’d be truly content
i am proud of my craft—
ever girl should be proud of her craft (da da da da)
i’m at home in a shaft
it’s my natural bent
but i’d give it all up
if i could be a movie star
just a glamorous movie star—
i’d be truly content
they could double my rent
and i’d still be content
other people are movie stars
why can’t i be a movie star
like fay wray and gеorge brent?
i’d be truly contеnt
i needn’t be a rich glamorous
nor a really great glamorous
just a simple straight glamorous
movie star!
it’s the principle that counts
if the world only knew
this is not the real ella they see
i may stand in the flue
but i yearn for the vent
to the world i’m a sweep
but inside i’m a movie star
if i just were a movie star
i’d be truly content
