Excuse me miss
They’re all staring
At you, your colorful shadow
Your silhouette
You’re reflecting your ideal expression
In all scenes and locations
NY, LA, DC, Chicago
Barca, Stockholm, JPY, Milan
National to International motivation
Spray painted on gold bricks
In the Land of Oz
They’re watching you
From all directions
They’re all bouncing
Floating, high on Brooklyn Betty
You’re unknown, getting known
Glow, glow, glowing
A queen in her throne
Flashing like a diamond
In Brooklyn
They’re all wondering
Wondering, wondering
Until they understand
You and your silhouette
Whistling, they can’t stop
Twist and they clap
Twist and they shout
Twist
You do the math
Twist, twist, twist
Keep them bouncing up and down
Clapping, shouting, rocking loud
Betty’s from Brooklyn
Betty’s got a fresh
Brooklyn Betty’s got a fresh
She’s got a fresh silhouette
You have graced their presence
They’re amazed by your outline
Christmas morning in Brooklyn
In all months, even September?
Full moon to waning crescents
Your spotlights on streets, brick walls
Water towers, bridges and sidewalks
They want to get to know you
Since they’ve seen your shape
In paint and chalk
They want to know what it takes
To be the same
As the Great Lakes
Betty’s from Brooklyn
Betty’s got a fresh
Brooklyn Betty’s got a fresh
She’s got a fresh silhouette
Let me introduce you
Everyone who’s looking
Meet Betty
She’s from Brooklyn
Has the silhouette
She’s got what’s, what’s a cooking
She’s got grace
That’s irreplaceable
She’s off the charts
The talk at the picnic table
Quit staring, let her know your name
See if you can match
Her style, her fame
She’s here to stay
This won’t be Betty’s last supper
