Marilyn

manik 2003 (Mataram)



Camera's rolling,I'm the dumb blonde
White dress and red lips,I'm Marilyn
I stand and sing "happy birthday Mr President"
I'm in Hollywood,it's my destiny
When I was a girl,I dreamed of fame
Then I become a big,big star
They love Marilyn,but I'm Norma Jeane
Do I need a lover?I don't think I need it so far
Everyone knows I'm glamorous
Beautiful soul,here I am
Remember "Gentleman prefer blondes"
But they are all gone
Camera's rolling,I'll be your dream
Do you see me in all her scenes?
Or can you see through the tears?
I'm not her,she's the Hollywood's girl
They yell Monroe,and I'm still Norma Jeane
When will I feel worthy?
Should I be Miss Monroe?or not anymore.
