    I spend my life accounting
    With figures and such
    THE ACCOUNTANTS:
    Unhappy
    LEO:
    To what is my life amounting
    It figures, not much
    THE ACCOUNTANTS:
    Unhappy
    LEO:
    I have a secret desire
    Hiding deep in my soul
    It sets my heart afire
    To see me in this role
    I wanna be a producer
    With a hit show on Broadway
    I wanna be a producer
    Lunch at Sardi's every day
    I wanna be a producer
    Sport a top hat and a cane
    I wanna be a producer
    And drive those chorus girls insane!
    I wanna be a producer
    And sleep until half-past two
    I wanna be a producer
    And say, "You, you, you, not you"
    I wanna be a producer
    Wear a tux on op'ning nights!
    I wanna be a producer
    And see my name "Leo Bloom" in lights!
    CHORUS GIRLS:
    He wants to be a producer
    LEO:
    Sell it, girls!
    CHORUS GIRLS:
    Of a great big Broadway smash
    LEO:
    Don't forget the balcony!
    CHORUS GIRLS:
    He wants to be a producer
    Ev'ry pocket stuffed with cash
    He wants to be a producer
    Pinch our cheeks 'til we cry

    Ouch!
    CHORUS GIRL #2:
    Eek!
    CHORUS GIRL #3:

    I wanna be the greatest, grandest
    And most fabulous producer in the world
    CHORUS GIRLS:
    He wants to be a producer
    He wants to dine with a duchess and a duke
    LEO:
    I just gotta be a producer
    Drink champagne until I puke
    CHORUS GIRLS:
    Drink champagne 'til he pukes!
    LEO:
    I wanna be a producer
    Show the world just what I've got
    I'm gonna put on shows
    That will enthrall 'em
    CHORUS GIRLS & LEO:
    Read my name in Winchell's column!
    LEO:
    I wanna be a producer
    'Cause it's everything I'm not
    THE ACCOUNTANTS:
    Unhappy...unhappy...
    So unhappy
    LEO & THE ACCOUNTANTS:
    Very very very very very
    very very...
    THE ACCOUNTANTS:
    ...sad
    LEO:
    I wanna be a producer
    Hold everything! What I am I doing here? Mr. Bialystock was right!
    There is a lot more to me than there is to me!
    Stop the world, I wanna get on!
    MARKS:
    Bloom, where do you think you're going?
    LEO:
    Mr. Marks, I've got news for you. I quit!
    Here's my visor...my Dixon Ticonderoga number two pencil... and my big finish!
    I'm gonna be a producer
    Sound the horn and beat the drum
    I'm gonna be a producer
    Look out Broadway, here I come!!
    CHORUS GIRLS & ACCOUNTANTS:
    Broadway, here he comes!
