Bombshell: The New Marilyn Musical from Smash
SMASH - Public Relations Lyrics


The song is written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman.

REPORTERS:
Here she is!
Miss Marilyn Monroe
Will she have the answers
That our readers want to know?
From India and Pars
And from just across the pond
We have so many questions
For America's smart dumb blonde

MARILYN:
Here I am
I dropped in from the sky
For Look and Life and all the boys
From Peek and U.P.I

REPORTERS:
Please let us peek behind closed doors
Where no one is allowed!

MARILYN:
Well I'm pretty good in private
But the truth is, I'm better in a crowd

I relate to men of so many nations
But public relations
Are my favorite kind

REPORTERS:
You're the story that we're glad we're assigned

Dealing with one man
Can lead to frustrations
But public relations
I have never declined

REPORTERS:
Cause we're the guys who'll never leave ya behind

A bunch of men
With pad and pen
Is a way to have some fun
But ladies, listen to me
Confidentially?
Nothing ever beats a one on one

Still, you come to me
For sex in quotations
So I'll use public relations
To give you a piece of my mind

REPORTERS:
Gimme, gimme
A piece of your mind
Cause the answer to a question
Is the way you're defined, like

SPOKEN
REPORTER: What do you sleep in?
MARILYN: Well I adore Chanel No.
5 and not much more
REPORTER: Any advice for a girl in the city?
MARILYN: If you're two-faced,
at least make one of them pretty
REPORTER: The studio says,
"lateness is your favorite crime"
MARILYN: True, I've been on a calendar,
but never on time
REPORTER: When you posed nude,
your inhibitions were gone?
MARILYN: Well, that's not quite true,
I kept the radio on!

SUNG:
Yes, to chase the blues
Boys, I chase the newsboys!
Fame has plenty of perks

When your life's a mess
Call the foreign press
Be they Indian, Parisian, British
German, or Turks

I am glad you crave
My best conjugations
Yes, public relations
Is my favorite sound

Cause when I'm alone
I can pick up the phone
Cause the forth estate
Is always around!
Yes, it's just good public relations!
