Specialization is one of my most favorite songs from Marilyn Monroe. Guess why!
If you bruise the people in the news the people that the magazines refer to
You’ll find that they are naturally soign 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 per tatters
Maria Callas
Is booking Dallas
The carpet’s rolled out and they’re sold out clear to the skies
Specialization, specialization
They’ll love your high notes if… If you specialize
When Elvis rotates
Each creep notates
It may look funny,
but the money’s what it supplies
Specialization, specialization
You’ll meet the Colonel if… If you specialize
Salome did it with veils
Abe Lincoln did it with brains
Toledo did it with scales
The Chinese built that Wall
Specialized star
Marc Clement gives the gals the tremors
This Casanovan sure has the roverest eyes
Specialization, specialization
You’ll rule the barnyard if…
If you specialize
The Farrows did it with springs
And Darwin did it with links
Some robbers did it with Brinks
Carnegie used a Hall
Specialized star
Van Cliberen caused us a high burn
While we were blushin’ some Russian gape in the prize
Specialization, specialization
They’ll give you medals if…
They’ll love your high notes if…
You’ll meet the Colonel if…
You’ll rule the barnyard if…
If you specialize!
I specialize!
