I owe my voice to a fiction
And my nickname to a fan
I owe my voice to a fiction
And my face to the make-up man
I am the whip of the season
Till I return my routine
I am the whip of the season
I am a limelight machine
Mama, raise the rag
I'm going on
Daddy, hit the lights
I'm going on
Diddledeedum, diddledeedum
Huftymagufty, my queen
Diddledeedum, diddledeedum
I am a limelight machine
