Lyrics[]
Ivy:
So another man says that he can't compete
That he can't love a moving target
Karen:
So another affair gets an incomplete
Well, it's time to adjust my plan
Ivy:
Cause when I'm up there...
Karen:
...on the silver screen
Karen and Ivy:
I can make the whole world want Norma Jeane
Ivy:
So I can't have the love of a single man
Karen:
But a million or more, well...
Karen and Ivy:
...that I can!
Karen:
Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame
And a face and a name to remember
The past fades away
Because as of this day
Norma Jeane's gone
She's moving on
Her smile and your fantasies play a duet
That will make you forget where you are
The music starts playing
It's the beat of her heart saying
Let me be your star
Ivy:
Flashback to a girl
With a song in her heart
As she's waiting to start the adventure
The fire and drive
That make dreams come alive
They fill her soul
She's in control
The drama, the laughter, the tears just like pearls
Well, they're all in this girl's repertoire
It's all for the taking
And it's magic we'll be making
Let me be your star
Karen and Ivy:
I'll just have to forget the hurt that came before
Karen:
Forget what used to be
Ivy:
The past is on the cutting room floor
Karen:
The future is here with me
Karen and Ivy:
Choose me!
Fade up on a star
With it all in her sights
All the love and the lights
That surround her
Someday she'll think twice
Of the dues and the price
Ivy:
She'll have to pay
Karen:
She'll have to pay
Ivy:
But not today
Karen:
But not today
Karen and Ivy:
She'll do all she can
For the love of one man
And for millions who look from afar
I'm what you've been needing
It's all here and my heart's pleading
Let me be your star!
