Analyse de la chanson par son co-auteur, Marc Shaiman (VO):
"Due to their quest for something different, the powers that be suddenly recognized that there was a decided lack of razzmatazz (for lack of a better word) on the show and we were asked to deliver a production number for BOMBSHELL. Now, at this point, Scott & I felt "what else can we write about this woman??" but we looked at all the hours of footage of Marilyn coming off planes with reporters and fans swarming and came up with this song.
And we got even more excited when we realized it could be a fantasy for "Tom", allowing Christian Borle a chance to sing and dance with Kat and be funny. You know, the kind of things we thought people tuning into a show about Broadway musicals wanted! He didn't disappoint! And Kat nailed the attitude so well, that what you hear on this number is the "scratch" vocal she cut between takes one day just so that everyone could hear the song to sign off on it (yes, even at this point in the proceedings, our songs had to pass an audition every week). Kat, without exaggeration, sang this vocal in a broom closet we found in the theatre we were shooting in and we all decided not to try to top it."
Reporters:
Here she is, Miss Marilyn Monroe!
Will she have the answers that our readers want to know?
Indian Reporter:
From India!
Parisian Reporter:
And Paris!
British Reporter:
And from just across the pond!
Reporters:
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...
German Reporter:
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!
Marilyn:
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!
Marilyn:
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 have come to me for sex in quotations
So I'll use public relations to give you a peace of my mind
Reporters:
Gimme, gimme, a piece of your mind!
'Cause the answer to a question is the way you're defined, like:
American Reporter:
What do you sleep in?
Marilyn:
Well, I adore Chanel No. 5, and not much more
American Reporter:
Any advice for a girl in the city?
Marilyn:
If you're two-faced at least make one of them pretty
American Reporter:
The studio says "lateness is your favorite crime"
Marilyn:
True, I've been on a calendar, but never on time
American Reporter:
When you posed nude, your inhibitions were gone?
Marilyn:
Well, that's not quite true, I kept the radio on!
Reporters:
Ahh, yes, to chase the blues boys
I chase the newsboys!
Fame has plenty of perks!
Marilyn:
When your life's a mess, call the foreign press!
American Reporter:
Be they:
Indian Reporter:
Indian!
Parisian Reporter:
Parisian!
British Reporter:
British!
German Reporter:
German!
Turk Reporter:
Or Turks!
Reporters:
Yeah!
Marilyn:
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 fourth estate is always around!
Reporters:
Yes, it's just good public relations!
