YES JESS PATTY!

Oh why must I be the understudy one day they'll all realize they're wrong
I know that I can fill those big shoes I'm the next Julie Andrews
I'm a star and one day someone else will be singin' this song
This song singin' this song ah ah ah ah ah

Even asked to stand by for Rosie Perez what
I watch what I eat won't have a chianti but I take a seat behind Laura Benanti it's BeNANti she's from Jersey
Telsey and Co may I speak to Bernie it's me yah you know wait not Julia Murney
I'm so much better than Ms. Eder much less caddy than old Patty
More a soldier than Ms. Bolger so much subtler than Ms. Butler
Way less deadly than Ms. Headly way more mellow than Carmello

Once when I went on for Bebe she kicked me in the knee knee and said girl you won't ever be me me
My voice never cracks my acting is stronger I've got a big rack unlike Lea Salonga
A true triple threat go ask Chris Gatelli my jazz hands won't sweat unlike Liza Minelli
One day the Shuberts will see their mistake and give me my well deserved break
Why must I be the understudy for Eden Steph and Sara Ramirez
Though my work here never teeters I am not Bernadette Peters

When I stood by in Side Show sittin' in the 9th row was director Joe Mantello
He said your talent girl is unique so now I'm a green freak defying gravity but only once a week
Oh why must I be the understudy it's time for me to ring my own damn bell
My vocal chops are crazy I can mix like Marin Maizie or belt it out like Idina Menzel
When I stood by for Sutton I was cuter than a button but all doors seemed a shuttin'

Here are the real lyrics, straight from the sheet music:
From the day I was born I just knew I belonged on the stage
To New York I did move study hard I did do now I'm making a steady wage
But you won't see my name on the marquee cuz talented me is the understudy
Oh why must I be the understudy waiting for stage management to call hello broadway
I'm a sore thumb in the chorus cuz come on I'm drop dead gorgeous
And one day you'll see my face on Sardi's wall

She's so cute! :D I wish I had her smile
