MAZEPPA: You can pull all the stops out Till they call the cops out; Grind your behind till you're banned. But you gotta get a gimmick If you wanna get a hand. You can sacrifice your saccro Working in the back row. Bump in a dump till you're dead. Kid, you gotta have a gimmick If you wanna get ahead. You can uh...You can uh... You can uh...uh...uh... That's how Burlesque was born. So I uh...and I uh... And I uh...uh...uh... But I do it with a horn... Once I was a Schleppa, Now I'm Miss Mazzeppa, With my revolution in dance. You gotta have a gimmick If you wanna have a chance! ELECTRA: She can uh... She can uh... She can uh...uh...uh... That'll never make her rich. Me, I uh... and I uh... And I uh...uh...uh... But I do it with a switch. I'm electrifyin', And I ain't even tryin'; I never have to sweat to get paid; 'Cause if you got a gimmick, Gypsy girl, you got it made. TESSIE TURA: All them uh and then uh... And that uh...uh...uh... Ain't gonna spell success; Me, I uh... and I uh... And I uh...uh...uh... But I do it with finesse. Dressy Tessie Tura is so much more demur-er Than all them other ladies because-- You gotta get a gimmick If you wanna get applause. ALL: Do something special Anything special And you'll get better because... You're more than just a mimic When you gotta gimmick Take a look how different we are! ELECTRA: If you wanna make it, Twinkle while you shake it. TESSIE TURA: If you wanna grind it, Wait till you've refined it. MAZEPPA: If you wanna stump it, Bump it with a trumpet! ALL: So get yourself a gimmick and you, too, Can be a star! [Thanks to DOUG WILLIAMS for lyrics] Back to main page: Gypsy Lyrics
