Lyrics
Marmelstein, stung There's a name almost as tough as mine Which is Streisand with an S, right? Like sand on the beach And I still get Streisan, Streizen, you know, with a Z My friend Liza has the the Z, I'm Streisand with an S, you know? I just love it when people say my name right, which is so rare (Miss Streis) Miss Streis Mr. Ziegfield? Is that you Mr. Ziegfield? It's Ziegfeld, no I Oh right, how could I do that, that's a terrible thing, I'm sorry (Miss Streis, I'm supposed to pick your material) It's not your place to do that Why do you always have to be difficult? Well, I'm not trying to be difficult, I just have my own ideas Why don't you just give me a chance? Good night, Miss Streiss (No, wait a minute Mr. Ziegfield-feld) You're Jewish, right? (So?) So, suppose all you ever had for breakfast was onion rolls And all of a sudden, one morning in walks a bagel I mean, you'd take a look at it and say "what is that?" Until you've tried it, so that's my trouble (What's your trouble?) I'm a bagel on a plate full of onion rolls Miss Streis Yes? Who do you think you are? Well I could go far But no one knows it (Bye) Wait, they're gonna hear a voice A silver flute, ah hah, ah hah They'll cheer each toot (Hey, that kid is terrific, yeah) When I expose it Now, can't you see to look at me That I'm a natural Camille As Camille I just feel I've so much to offer Listen Mr. Z, I know I'd be divine Because I'm a natural cougher (Ahoo - ahay - ahey) Some ain't got it not a lump I'm a great big clump Who's wearing second hand hats Second hand clothes That's why they call me Second hand rose Even our piano in the parlor Father bought for ten cents on the dollar Second hand pearls, I'm wearing Second hand curls, I never get a single thing that's new Even Jake the plumber, he's the man I adore Had the nerve to tell me he's been married before Everyone knows that I'm just rose, second hand rose From second avenue From second ave- Who is the pip with piz-azz? Who is all ginger and jazz? Who is as glamorous as? Who's an American Beauty rose? With an American Beauty nose? And ten American Beauty toes? Eyes on the target, and wham One shot, one whim shot and bam Hey, Mr. Ziegfeld Here I am I'll march my band out I'll beat my drum And if I'm fanned out Your turn at bat, sir At least I didn't fake it hat, sir I guess I didn't make it Get ready for me, life 'Cause I'm a commer I simply gotta march My heart's a drummer Nobody, no, nobody Is gonna rain on my parade Ow, thank you, that's good Thank you, thank you You liked that one, huh? Thank you Alright Does it seem like six years ago? Some of you were here before six years ago? Well, oh, oh It seems like only five years ago
