You Oughta Be in Pictures

(Chorus)
You ought to be in pictures
You’re wonderful to see
You ought to be in pictures
Oh, what a hit you would be

Your voice would thrill a nation
Your face would be adored
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 ev’ry girl and man a fan
Worshipping at your throne

You ought to shine as brightly
As Jupiter and Mars
You ought to be in pictures
My star of stars

(Verse)
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 share you
To the peoplе to be seen

(Chorus 2)
You're lovely as a Crawford
Likе Davies you are gay
You surely should be offered
A starring part right away

You're sweet as a Gaynor
And you're as hot as the gal named West
You'd surely make even Garbo jealous
If you took a movie test

You ought to dress like Tashman
And ride in motor cars
You ought to be in pictures
My star of stars

You're as handsome as a Gable
And healthy as a Mix
You surely should be able
To photograph like a Dix

You surely should sing like Bing
In a way that is nonchalant
You've got more than Barrymore
And what more could a person want

You ought to dress like Powell
And ride in sporty cars
You oughta be in pictures
My star of stars

(Verse 2)
And if you should kiss the way you kiss
When we are all alone
You’d make ev’ry girl and man a fan
Worshipping at your throne
You ought to shine as brightly
As Jupiter and Mars
You ought to be in pictures
My star of stars
