You can pull all the stops out

Till they call the cops out

Grind your behind till you're bend

But you gotta get a gimmick

If you wanna get a hand

You can sacrifice your sacharo

Working in the back row

Bump in a dump till you're dead

Kid you gotta get a gimmick

If you wanna get ahead

You can uh you can uh

You can uh uh uh

That's how burlesque was born

So I uh and I uh

And I uh uh uh

But I do it with a horn

Once I was a schleppa

Now I'm Miss Mazeppa

With my revolution in dance

You gotta have a gimmick

If you wanna have a chance

She can uh she can uh

She can uh uh uh

They'll never make her her rich

Me I uh and I uh

And I uh uh uh

But I do it with a switch

I'm electrifying

And I'm not even trying

I never had to sweat to get paid

'Cause if you got a gimmick

Gypsy girl you've got it made

All them uh and them uh

And them uh uh uh

Ain't gonna spell success

Me I uh and I uh

And I uh uh uh

But I do it with finesse

Dressy Tessie Tura

Is so much more then demurer

Than all them other ladies

Because you gotta get a gimmick

If you wanna get applause

Do something special

Anything special

Do something special

Anything special

You're more than just a mimic

When you got a gimmick

Take a look how different we are

If you wanna make it

Twinkle while you shake it

If you wanna grind it

Wait till you refined it

If you wanna pump it

Pump it with a trumpet

Get yourself a gimmick

And you too can be a star
