[Verse 1]
Nancy got a haircut, she looks really nice now
Walkin' with a light strut, drawin' all the eyes
How nice, oh, how nice
Nancy's got a new do, pullin' all the fellas
Girls are doin' voodoo 'cause they're gettin' jealous
My, it must be nice
To be Nancy

[Chorus]
But nobody knows what it's like to be
Scrutinized like you're on TV
Nobody knows what it's like
To be Nancy

[Scatting]

[Verse 2]
Nancy's got a hard life, winnin' isn't easy
Even if it's part-time, even when it's sleazy
I think I would die
If I were like Nancy, had to do what she does
Dressin' up all fancy, fightin' hard for freedom
I think I would die
I wouldn't wanna be Nancy
[Scatting]

[Chorus]
But nobody knows what it's like to be
Scrutinized like you're on TV
Nobody knows what it's like
To be Nancy

[Scatting]

[Bridge]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
But nobody knows what it's like to be
Scrutinized like you're on TV
Nobody knows what it's like
To be Nancy
