I've Got It All

Life is simply great
My silverware is gold
Through my Bel Air estate
Champagne's a flowing river
Next to my Rolls Royce
A Cadillac's a flivver.

I'm in clover
And my cup it runneth over
I have left my footprints in the wet concrete
My home town now has a Lily Garland street
I am mobbed by fans who faint and shriek my name
(laughs) The Price of fame
Look at you and me
The sweetest story told.

I'm high as I can be
You're lying in an alley
Trilby found her voice
She doesn't need Svengali!
You've got nothing and I've got it all
Forgive my lack of tact
But here's the basic fact
You've got nothing and I've got it all.

Are you finished?
No, you are!
Chauffeur, butler, cook
You're spoiled
They're foreign and they're old.

Your reputation's soiled
A billion shopgirls ape you
Nightly nationwide
A billion farmhands rape you.

Please stop trying
What you'd like to sell me, I'm not buying
Don't come at me with a contract
I will not sign any contract.

Contract? Contract?
Who said contract?
Did you hear me mention contract?
I came here with a dream
We shared once long ago
Two hearts with one grand scheme.

Don't you know when something's over?
This was a professional dream
The role that you were made for
A role, a chance to play
That Bernhardt would have paid for.

Save your breath
Don't even try
Back again with you?
I'd rather die!

Perhaps it's just as well
I've seen you on the screen
On stage you wove a spell
With each new play it deepened
But now your art is gone
It's coarsened and it's cheapened
Since you rolled out
Since you sold out
To cheap Hollywood
Sleazy, cheesy Hollywood
Pitiful, city full of celluloid slime
You're just jealous.

Ermine vested
Vermin infested
Home of freaks and sheiks and geeks
And celluloid crime
Sour grapes!

Playing foolish parts
Every part the same
Morons who direct
Crucify your name
Lily on display
Just a bargain sale
Lily face the truth
Lily you've gone stale!
Stale?

Another stale cheap dolly
From cheap, cheap Holly.

My life is simply great
My silverware is gold
Through my Bel Air estate
Champagne's a flowing river
Look at my Rolls Royce
Poor Lily, you've gone stale
The movie public's choice!
That's not the Holy Grail.

All the biggest names in town
Are begging to be asked to dinner
Give them all a year or so
They'll drop you for the latest winner
I did it all myself
Keep your tainted pelf
Got there by myself
Landed on the shelf
Never needed you
Lily, you are through
I'm a winner
You're a loser
Stop your trying
I'm not buying.

Tragic story
Lost your glory
Some Svengali
In an alley.

Shop girls ape you
Farmhands rape you.

I've got it
You've lost it
I've got it!
You've lost it!
I've got it
You've lost it!
I've got it!

You've lost it!
Cheap Hollywood.

I've got it all
Cheap Hollywood
I've got it all
You've lost it!
I've got it
All!
