Mel Brooks, Roger Bart - Man About Town lyrics

Now you're a creature a primitive soul
You don't know your left from your right
You're lost in the dark you need a spark
To lead you into the light

I'll be that guide i'll be by your side
I'll put you out of the mire
You'll be the greatest creation of man
Since the invention of fire! You will walk
You will talk ev'rybody will gawk
At the man about town!

From the start you'll be smart
You'll break every heart
You're the man about town

And I know when you open that door
You'll be cheered, never feared evermore!

Raise your eyes to the skies
There's no holding you down
You won't be a flash in the pan
You're the man the man about town!

Though you feel like a beast in a cage
Stick with me and you'll be
On the stage! Throw your hat in the ring
They might make you a king
And you'll trade that hat for a crown
You're the man you're the man about town!
