Gladys:
Darling, every Saturday it's our tradition
I give you a nickel for a days admission

And Mommy has to run, ah, but that won't stop your fun
'Cause you get to see whose shoes you fit
Hey, Grauman, can you babysit?


Young Norma Jeane:
Mom, do you have to leave me alone here?


Gladys:
Norma Jeane, you know I have to work. And what do you mean alone? This place is full of people! And not just people - stars. Nothing bad could ever happen to you here.


Some folks wish on stars above
They want money, fame and love

We like our stars more concrete
So, the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet


Some like night to dream what's not
We prefer this sunny spot
To see the light and feel the heat

When the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet

I have to work each Saturday

So, my baby sees the matinee
You watch the movie then rush out
And put your left foot and your right foot

And you shake those dreams about

Most girls dream to touch the sky

Wide awake is when we fly
Down the boulevard where it's hard to not feel high
When you hear the song and feel the beat

'Cause the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet

Now, go on Norma Jeane, go see whose hands match yours.


Young Norma Jeane:
Momma, who's your favorite?


Gladys:
Mary Pickford, Clara Bow

Their impressions make a show
And you're in a front row seat
When the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet


Tap and turn with Fred Astaire
Maybe someday you'll be there

Ginger Rogers can't compete
When the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet


We don't watch the skies for a stars ascent
We prefer a square of wet cement
The famous names that fill the screen

And maybe some day one will spell out Norma Jeane!

Young Norma Jeane:

Maybe some day one will spell out Norma Jeane!

Gladys:

It's showtime, let the dream begin
With each star who's ever been
Step inside the footsteps that you should follow in


So I leave you in the best of hands
In this Moet's Chinese of wonderlands

The dreams will truly be complete
When the stars that you're wishin' on are at your feet!
Ain't she sweet?
