When I Get My Name in Lights

I'll dance I'll sing I'll do anything

Just to get my name in lights

I've got to try to hit the heights

Now that I'm free as the breeze again

Old nimble knees again

And soon they'll all know my name

I'll have fortune and fame

When I get my name in lights

It can happen overnight in these modern times

So hold that front page

This boy was born to strut the stage

I tap and sing and play the pianuh

Splash my name across a big bright bannuh

And that's why

I won't let go til I'm on the radio

And when they come to see the sights

That will be my name spelt right

Lighting up Times Square

I'll sit on a flag pole

Whatever's the rage

Just to get my picture on the front page

Just to get my name in lights

I tap and sing and play piannuh

Splash his (my) name

'Cross a big bright bannah

And soon they'll all know my name

I'll have fortune and fame

When I get my name in lights

That will be my name spelt right

Lighting up Times Square

Just to gate my name....

Just to get my name....

Just to get my name in light!!

Just to get my name in light!!
