Don't Go Hollywood On Us

NED GINSBURG, PAMELA ANNE DINERMAN

We started out together
On the New York stage.
And now you're in a movie.
You'll be all the rage. (""Wow!"")
Well, if you call us 'Darling',
And wear shades after dark,
We will send you on a one-way
All expenses paid vacation
to Jurassic Park. (""Oh, you guys..."")
So have your fun but then,
Don't forget the little people
Who knew you when.
(""Here's a bit of friendly advice."")

Share some chocolates with Tom Hanks.
But don't forget to say please and thanks.
Don't Go Hollywood On Us.
Don't pretend you're a star.

Get in shape Eddie Murphy's way,
But please don't mess with your DNA.
Don't Go Hollywood On Us.
Stay the same as you are.

Last week,
You did Les Miz in Chicago.
Next week, I'm doing pizza with
Spielberg at Spago.

Call Alicia Silverstone
On your cellular telephone.
But Don't Go Hollywood On Us.
Let us give you a clue:
Be wonderful. Just be you!

(""Look! Sharon Stone. (á la Jim Carrey:) Somebody stop me!...""""You're not listening."")

Winona Ryder is quite a prize.
Little Women are just your size.
But Don't Go Hollywood On Us
Don't put lifts in your shoe.

Nathan Lane gets a lot of press.
Hey, you might have to wear a dress.
But Don't Go Hollywood On Us.
Gold lamé isn't you.

Last week,
You learned""King and I"" at rehearsal.
Next week, it's Stephen King and I
At Universal.

Shop in Beverly Hills with Cher,
But don't rush out and buy extra hair.
Don't Go Hollywood On Us.
You don't need a tatoo.
Be fabulous--Just be you!

""I need a gold Mercedes, a personal trainer,
A wardrobe consultant, a shrink,"" No!
""I need a plastic surgeon, a psychic..."" You can
Make it on talent.""You think?"" Sure!

""I'll take a tour bus and see Bel Aire.""
Sandra Bullock can drive you there.
But don't go rushing toward stardom.
You'll know when you've arrived,
So Don't Go Hollywood,
Don't Go Hollywood...

Don't forget where you came from,
And the shows we all did together.
Conquer Hollywood, Baby,
Then come back and be a Broadway Kid!

(spoken, á la Arnold:""I'll be back."")
