  • based on "There's No Business Like Show Business")
  • The man I chose to govern me
  • And twenty million others
  • Is not from Yale or Harvard,
  • He's from dear old Warner Brothers.
  • Yesterday they told him he would not go far,
  • Today in our state capitol we've stuck a movie star.
  • There's no governor like our new governor,
  • He sings, he dances, he acts.
  • He legislates our cares away,
  • We stand in line to pay our income tax.
  • There's no capitol like our state capitol,
  • It's lit up like Broadway.
  • And where our state house used to be,
  • They've got a big marquee that seems to say
  • He's a star, and he's thrilling,
  • And he's humble, and he's great!
  • And his agent said he was willing
  • To give equal billing to the name of our state.
  • It's in his contract.
  • There's no governor like our new governor,
  • He smiles when we are low.
  • (The governor of Michigan's a real nice Joe)
  • But no one's ever seen him on the late late show.
  • (There's governors all over who have college degrees)
  • Ah, but have they got their footprints down at Grauman's Chinese?
  • (There's governors all over in the newsreel pics)
  • Ah, but were they in "Gold Diggers of 1936"?
  • (There's no governor like our new governor)
  • Stupendous, colossal, gee whiz!
  • And if our state's a turkey and it fades away,
  • Our new governor's gonna say,
  • "Movie fans, we're all seceding from the USA!"
  • Well, that's show biz!
