Al Bowlly — You Oughta Be In Pictures

As I look at you A thought goes through my mind What a marvelous find You'd make upon the screen I am proud that I Have you right by my side But I'd be satisfied to Lend you to the people to be seen You ought to be in pictures You’re wonderful to see You ought to be in pictures How beautiful you would be Your voice would thrill a nation Your face would be adored Why, you’d make a great sensation With wealth and fame your reward And if you should kiss the way you kiss When we are all alone You’d make every girl and man A fan worshiping at your throne You ought to shine as brightly As Jupiter and Mars You ought to be in pictures My star of stars -Instrumental- You're lovely as a Crawford Like Davis you're a gaze You surely should be offered A big starring part right away You're sweet as a Gaynor And you're as hot as the gal named West You'd make even Garbo jealous If you took a movie test You ought to dress like Colbert And drive in big movie cars You ought to be in pictures My star of stars You're as handsome as a Gable And healthy as [?] You surely should be able To photograph like Richard [?] You surely should sing like Bing In a way that is nonchalant You've got more than Barry [?] And what more can a person want? You ought to dress like [?] And ride in sporty cars You ought to be in pictures My star of stars
