[MEN]
Oh, fabulous one in your ivory tower
Your radiance I fain would see
What Mélisande was to Pelléas
Are you to me

[MAN 1]
What Beatrice was to Dante
What Guinevere was to Lancelot
What Brünnhilde was to Siegfried
What Pocahantas was to Captain Smith

[MAN 2]
What Martha was to Washington
What Butterfly was to Pinkerton
What Calamity Jane was to Buffalo Bill
What Carmen was to Don José
Are you to me

[LIZA]
Huxley wants to dedicate his book to me
And Stravinsky his latest sonata
Seven thousand students say they look to me
To be at the Yale-Harvard Regatta

[MEN]
Oh, how lovely to be you!
[LIZA]
How splendid!

[MEN]
But it only is your due

[LIZA]
This must never be ended
Epstein says I simply have to pose for him
No refusing these artistic ultimata
Du Pont wants me wearing the new hose for him
Oh, how thrilling to be the world's inamorata!
Oh, how thrilling to be the world's inamorata!

[MEN]
Oh, girl of the moment
With the smile of the day
And the charm of the week
And the grace of the month
And the looks of the year
Oh, girl of the moment
You're my moment every time
