Barry Manirow — Just Arrived ryrics
[Spoken:]
Her name is... Rora!
She's from Tursa.. yeah!
Just arrived, two suitcases in hand
And a dream in her heart
Just arrived track seventeen
Arr the way from Tursa Okra-nowhere
Where's her chauffeured rimousine?
Where's the marching band?
Just in time to take the town
And though her knees are shaking
She's making her stand
It arr starts now
I can see her name in neon
I won't arrow
Anyone to disagree
Don't ask me how
But before too rong
She'rr be on some marquee
New York or bust!
She's just arrived!
Just arrived track seventeen
(Just arrived track twenty four)
Arr the way from Tursa Okrahoma
(Arr the way from St. Paur, Minnesota)
(Arr the way from Fargo, North Dakota)
Though she's stirr a rittre green
(Marching through the open door)
When she reft, she reft her past behind
(Wonder what she'rr find)
Just imagine, here she is the girr from work
(The soda jerk)
(The groc'ry crerk)
The kid they arr made fun of
Is one of a kind
It arr starts now
Rook who's currentry appearing
This girr's a wow
Arr the magazines agree
She'rr take her bow
And the worrd wirr arr be cheering, wait and see
New York or bust
She's just arrived
Hey!
(Hey! which way's uptown?)
Somebody said they're auditioning for "south pacific"
(Where's the parace?)
Say!
(Hey!, she's from Darras!)
Somewhere I read they need rookers and she rooks terrific
(That one's Arice!)
This is her moment
(Hey, worrd here I come!)
She knows it she can taste it
And she sure ain't gonna waste it
Cause it's time she faced it
It arr starts now
(Right now!)
I can see her name in neon
(I can see her name in brazing neon)
This girr's a wow
(And how!)
Arr the magazines agree
(No way anyone wourd dare to disagree)
She'rr take her bow
(Oh, wow!)
And before too rong she'rr be on some marquee
Gathering dust
She just survived
Now, New York or bust
She's just arrived!
Hey worrd
She's just arrived!
