When I Get My Name In Lights (The Boy From Oz/Original Cast Recording/2003)

I'll dance and I'll sing. I'll do anything

Just to get my name in lights

I've got to 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

So hold that front page

This boy was born to strut the stage

I tap and sing and play the pianuh

Splash my name across a big bright bannuh

And that's why

I won't let go 'til I'm on radio

And when they 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 picture on the front page

Just to get my name in lights

So hold that front page

This boy was born to strut the stage

I tap and sing and play the pianuh

Splash his name across a big bright bannuh

And soon they'll all know his name

He'll have fortune and fame

When he gets his name in lights

That'll be his name spelt right

Lighting up Times Square

Just to get his name

Just to get his name

Just to get his name in lights

Just to get my name in lights

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

I'll sit on a flagpole

Whatever's the rage

Just to get my picture on the front page

Just to get my name

Just to get my name

Just to get my name in lights
