Public Relations lyrics

Reporters:

Here she is, Miss Marilyn Monroe!

Will she have the answers that our readers want to know?

Indian Reporter:

From India!

French Reporter:

And Paris!

British Reporter:

And from just across the pond!

Reporters:

We have so many questions

For America's smart dumb blonde

Marilyn:

Here I am!

I dropped in from the sky

For Look and Life and all the boys from Peek and U.P.I

Reporters:

Please let us peek behind closed doors...

German Reporter:

Where no one is allowed!

Marilyn:

Well, I'm pretty good in private

But the truth is I'm better in a crowd!

I relate to men of so many nations

But public relations are my favorite kind

Reporters:

You're the story that we're glad we're assigned!

Marilyn:

Dealing with one man can lead to frustrations

But public relations I have never declined

Reporters:

'Cause we're the guys who'll never leave ya behind!

Marilyn:

A bunch of men with pad and pen is a way to have some fun

But, ladies, listen to me, confidentially

Nothing ever beats a one-on-one!

Still, you have come to me for sex in quotations

So I'll use public relations to give you a piece of my mind

Reporters:

Gimme, gimme, a piece of your mind!

'Cause the answer to a question is the way you're defined, like:

American Reporter:

What do you sleep in?

Marilyn:

Well, I adore Chanel No. 5, and not much more

American Reporter:

Any advice for a girl in the city?

Marilyn:

If you're two-faced at least make one of them pretty

Tom:

The studio says "lateness is your favorite crime"

Marilyn:

True, I've been on a calendar, but never on time

American Reporter:

When you posed nude, your inhibitions were gone?

Marilyn:

Well, that's not quite true, I kept the radio on!

Reporters:

Ahh, yes, to chase the blues boys

I chase the newsboys!

Fame has plenty of perks!

Marilyn:

When your life's a mess, call the foreign press!

American Reporter:

Be they:

Indian Reporter:

Indian!

French Reporter:

Parisian!

British Reporter:

British!

German Reporter:

German!

Turk Reporter:

Or Turks!

Reporters:

Yeah!

Marilyn:

I am glad you crave my best conjugations

Yes, public relations is my favorite sound

'Cause when I'm alone I can pick up the phone

'Cause the fourth estate is always around!

Reporters:

Yes, it's just good public relations!
