and when silkwood’s all finished, nichols says the trailer’s playing in l.a. and i should check it out. so i did
so i’m standing at the back of the theatre, and meryl streep’s name comes up on the screen. and everyone goes-
[ensemble, spoken]

[babe, spoken]
and kurt russell’s name comes on. and everyone goes-
[ensemble, spoken]

[babe, spoken]
but the academy doesn’t approve of me. i’m the bad girl with the big mouth. so this time, i don’t even get nominated
[bob mackie, spoken]
well, that’s show biz, i guess
[babe, spoken]
they ask me to present an award instead. that’s show biz
[bob mackie, spoken]
hey, it’s still an honor to be a presenter
[babe, spoken]
oh yeah, it’s a big honor, bob. and i wanna go big, right back
[ensemble]
and the beat goes on
[bob mackie, spoken]
just how big do you want it, cher?
[ensemble]
the beat goes on
[babe, spoken]
let’s put it this way: when you think you’ve gone too big, bob- go bigger!
[ensemble]
and the beat goes on
the beat goes on
the beat goes on, on, on

[star, spoken]
as you can see, i did receive my academy handbook on how to dress like a “serious actress.” okay, back to you, kid
[ensemble (babe)]
gotta pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
’cause you know, it don’t come easy (easy)
you don’t have to shout or shimmy all about (the beat goes on and on)
even though it all comes easy (the beat goes on)
[babe, spoken]
oh, i paid my dues alright. and two years later
[announcer, spoken]
