You'll let me know

chorus:
Don't turn me away, oh no
Please gimme a part to play
Don't tell me to go, oh no
And please don't say you'll let me know
Please don't say you'll let me know
Please don't say you'll let me know

I walk the streets with a hopeful smile
It hurts my feet but it's all worthwhile
I hardly eat but I don't need food
Upon a stage maybe in the nude
I could be so good
I could be the best
I wanna be a star
Brighter than the rest
Gimme half a chance
Mister, gimme a chance
Please gimme a chance

chorus

I practice hard each and every day
It hurts my fingers nearly wears them away
But I don't give a damn 'cause I feel so free
Upon a stage the world is waiting for me
I can see it now
Wearing Yves Saint Laurent
Or maybe Mary Quant
Or maybe nothing in front
Gimme half a chance
Mr gimme a chance
Please gimme a chance

chorus

I'm getting older day by day
I'm nearly seventeen the time is running away
I gotta make it soon gotta make it soon
If you don't help me mister I don't know what

I'll do
I could be so good
I could be the best
I wanna be a star
Brighter than the rest
Gimme half a chance
Mister, gimme a chance
Please gimme a chance
