It’s Me
[BETTY]
I'm colorless and shy
Inhibited and dull
My entrance into any room is followed by a lull
This droopiness in me
Miraculously melts
When I step on a stage and make believe I'm someone else
Quite suddenly
I'm mentally and physically equipped
With most unusual qualities
It says so in the script
[JEANIE]
Who is that delectable dame?
Cool as cream and hotter than flame
Who, who could it be?
[BETTY]
It's me, it's me, it's me
[JEANIE]
Who's that queenly gift to the boys?
[BETTY]
Always keen and lousy with poise
[JEANIE]
Who, who could it be?
[BETTY]
It's me, it's me, it's mе
When the authors make mе say
Words that make me wittier
I feel just as smart as they
And what's more, I'm prettier
[JEANIE]
Who's that girl who's getting the wows?
Who's that babe who's taking the bows?
[BETTY]
In a daze, I wonder who is she?
Imagine my surprise
When once I realize
It's nobody else but wonderful, beautiful me
My picture hangs in Sardi's
For all the world to see
I sit beneath my picture there
And no one looks at me
Sometimes wear dark glasses
Concealing who I am
Then all at once, I'll take them off
And no one gives a damn
But when I start to play a part
I play the part okay
No longer am I no one
When I'm someone in a play
[JEANIE]
Every man is flipping his lid
Over that phenomenal kid
Who, who could it be?
[BETTY]
It's me, it's me, it's me
[JEANIE]
Whose hot kiss from passionate lips
Perpetrates a total eclipse?
Who, who could it be?
[BETTY]
It's me, it's me, it's me
Oh, what I can perpetrate
By my osculation
Just one little kiss and poof!
There goes perpetration!
[JEANIE]
Who has learned the formula which
Satisfies the seven-year itch?
Who's that dazzling personality?
[JEANIE & BETTY]
Well, here's the big surprise
Hot dog and damn my eyes
It's nobody else but wonderful, beautiful me
I'm colorless and shy
Inhibited and dull
My entrance into any room is followed by a lull
This droopiness in me
Miraculously melts
When I step on a stage and make believe I'm someone else
