:20:03
Take me, for example.
:20:05
Im sure that Im a genius
:20:07
So I havent any fears
:20:09
I never get discouraged and downhearted
:20:14
I havent sold a painting
And Ive tried for 20 years

:20:17
Hes just a little slow getting started
:20:22
Im great, but no one knows it
:20:24
No one knows it but me
:20:26
Im great
And yet I just cant get the critics to agree

:20:30
My works are masterpieces
Like Picassos and Matisses

:20:34
Youre certainly an artist
:20:35
When it comes to drawing leases
:20:37
Im just as great as he is
:20:39
But they call me the worst
:20:41
But when I lose a match
Its cause I havent been rehearsed

:20:45
You mean that youre a genius
In your own peculiar way

:20:48
Youre great, but no one knows it
:20:50
But they will someday
:20:52
You see, thats our secret.
Youve got to have confidence in yourself.

:20:56
Miss Sherwood, you could be
a female Shakespeare.

:21:00
- Me?
- Sure you could.

:21:02
Eileen, you could show
these other actresses...

:21:04
theyre not even on the second team.
:21:05
You can throw a hammerlock
around this whole doggone town.

:21:08
- I could?
- You could. If you only believe in yourself.

:21:10
Miss Sherwood,
what do you think of yourself?

:21:13
- I guess Im all right.
- No, Eileen. Ruth.

:21:17
What do you think of yourself?
:21:21
No. No matter what anybody says,
youve got to keep your head up high...

:21:26
and say, Im great. Say it!
:21:29
Im great
:21:30
No.
:21:31
Youve got to shout it out!
So the whole city can hear you.

:21:34
From the Bronx to the Battery.
:21:36
Shout!
:21:38
Im great, but no one knows it
No one knows it

:21:41
Thats much better.
:21:42
So far
:21:43
Thats fine.
:21:44
But theyll get wise
:21:45
And realise how wonderful you are
:21:49
The public may acclaim us
:21:51
Well be popular and famous
:21:53
And anyone that pans us
Will be called an ignoramus

:21:57
Were great, but no one knows it
:21:58
But who cares about them
