Truly Content

Stephen Sondheim

[ELLA]
Though there's soot on my shoes
There's a beautiful dream in my heart
And a life in the flues
Is a life to lament
If I only could be
A guhlamorous movie star
Just a glamorous movie star
I'd be truly content

I am proud of my craft—
Ever girl should be proud of her craft (Da da da da)
I'm at home in a shaft
It's my natural bent
But I'd give it all up
If I could be a movie star
Just a glamorous movie star—
I'd be truly content
They could double my rent
And I'd still be content

Other people are movie stars
Why can't I be a movie star
Like Fay Wray and Gеorge Brent?
I'd be truly contеnt

I needn't be a rich glamorous
Nor a really great glamorous
Just a simple straight glamorous
Movie star!
It's the principle that counts

If the world only knew
This is not the real Ella they see
I may stand in the flue
But I yearn for the vent
To the world I'm a sweep
But inside I'm a movie star
If I just were a movie star
I'd be truly content
