Alle Filmlieder von Marilyn Monroe haben das gewisse etwas, so auch dieser Song aus o.g. Film:
If you peruse the people in the news
The people that the magazines refer to
You'll find that they are naturally soigné
The special ones that all of us defer to
They've each a trait
That seems to state first raters
Which separates them
from the small pertaters
Maria Callas is booked in Dallas
But it's not certain the curtain ever will rise
Specialization
They'll love your high notes if
If you specialize
When Elvis rotates
each critic notates
It may look funny
But money's what it supplies
You'll meet the colonel if
Salome did it with veils
Abe Lincoln did it with rails
Toledo did it with scales
The Chinese built that wall
Specialists all
The gasser is still the massah
When Frankie bends 'em
he sends 'em he takes the prize
They'll buy your album if
We brushed Van Cliburn
And did a slyburn
While we were blushin'
Some Russian gave him a prize
They'll give you medals if
When Brando mumbles
The fair sex crumbles
And that's a factor each actor must realize
Kazan will love you if
The Phaarohs did it with sphinx
And Darwin did it with links
Some robbers did it with Brinks
Carnegie used a hall
If ZsaZsa should meet a rahjah
Tho' she'd alarm him
She'd charm him up to the skies
They'll buy you diamonds if
They'll buy your albums if
The world will love you if
I specialize
