I’d dance and I’d sing, I’d do anything
Just to get my name in lights
I gotta try to hit the heights
Now that I’m free as a breeze again
Old nimble knees again
And soon, they’ll all know my name
I’ll have fortune and fame
When I get my name in lights
It can happen overnight in these modern times
Here in the jazz age
The world is at a crazy stage
You can be famous and cause a panic
If you slick back your hair and then you fly the Atlantic
And that’s why I won’t let go ’til I’m on radio
And when you come to see the sights
That’ll be my name spelt right lighting up Times Square
I’ll sit on a flagpole, whatever’s the rage
Just to get my face on the front page
And just to get my name in lights
We’re livin’ life from this very day
New York, we’re on our way
We’ll be known for our charm and sparkling wit
Even Clara Bow will admit we got it
When I get my name
When I get my name
When I get my name in lights
Mmm, I’m gonna see my name in lights
Harry, there’s no problem, you’re gonna see it in big, big lights
Now, Peter, I’m not talkin’ about them little lights, I want them big ones
Harry, you’ve got to trust me, they’ll be big
