Director:
The challenge for the actor is to use sense memory of childhood dramas!
Ensamble:
Aaah!!!
Use your past
Use your pain
Never ever try to entertain!
Let Stanivslasky be your umbrella!
Director:
Mumble your words!
Ensamble:
Unless they're..
Male actor:
STELLA!
Ensamble:
Use justification, improvisation, plus some emotional masturbation!
Director:
Visitor from the western coast
Ensamble:
Can you dig it?
Marilyn:
(spoken)
I dig it the most! I'm trough with Hollywood! It's New York and the Actor's Studio for me! And if one of those boys come a-callin' you can tell them I said this:
(sung)
In history there's this doctrine called Monroe
Which basically told the enemy where to go.
It was created to nutrer and protect
but now a new Monroe doctrine is in effect!
So go tell Mr.Zanick
to read it and weep.
'Cause I'm not just here to dig!
I'm here to dig deep.
From the 20th century foxholes I'm released
(Ensamble: Shu-ba-ra-dira ra-di-ra-du-ah!)
And just like the sun I'm rising in the East
(Ensamble:Du-ru-dira-du-ah!)
I made a move from that permanent state of sadness
to prove there's a method to my madness
I'm waking up from the 20th Century sleep.
Yeah, I'm not just here to dig
I'm here to dig deep.
Marilyn-Ensamble:
Well, there is no sin
to remove your skin
and to take a look under the hood.
Yes, you must expell
the outer shell,
though you have to admit
my shell looks good!
Actor:
(screaming)
You're tearing me apart!
Marilyn:
I'll finally get to use my mind's interior
and not only just
my bust and my posterior!
....
Ensamble:
And we're just nuts about Sigmund Freud!
Marilyn-Ensamble:
So open up my in
for a good clean sweep
Marilyn:
'Cause I'm not just here to dig....
No I'm not just here to dig...
Oh, I'm not just here to dig...
I'm here to dig...
