Billy: Give 'em the old razzle dazzle Razzle Dazzle 'em Give 'em an act with lots of flash in it And the reaction will be passionate Give 'em the old hocus pocus Bead and feather 'em How can they see with sequins in their eyes?
What if your hinges all are rusting? What if, in fact, you're just disgusting?
Razzle dazzle 'em And they;ll never catch wise!
Give 'em the old Razzle Dazzle Razzle dazzle 'em Give 'em a show that's so splendiferous
Row after row will crow vociferous
Give 'em the old flim flam flummox Fool and fracture 'em
How can they hear the truth above the roar?
Throw 'em a fake and a finagle They'll never know you're just a bagel,
Razzle dazzle 'em And they'll beg you for more!
Give 'em the old double whammy Daze and dizzy 'em Back since the days of old Methuselah Everyone loves the big bambooz-a-ler
Give 'em the old three ring circus Stun and stagger 'em When you're in trouble, go into your dance
Though you are stiffer than a girder They'll let you get away with murder Razzle dazzle 'em And you've got a romance
Company (same time as Billy): Give 'em the old Razzle Dazzle
Billy: Give 'em the old Razzle Dazzle Razzle dazzle 'em Show 'em the first rate sorceror you are Long as you keep 'em way off balance How can they spot you've got no talents Razzle Dazzle 'em
Billy and Company: Razzle Dazzle 'em Razzle Dazzle 'em
And they'll make you a star!
