NOBODY DISCOVERS ME
From the film "Happidrome" (1943)
(Stefan Vokes / Ian Grant)


Bunty Meadows & Chorus (Film Soundtrack) - 1943



Columbus discovered America
And Neptune found the sea
But here am I, try, try, try
But nobody discovers me

Eve caught Adam in the Garden of Eden
With an apple on a tree
And here am I, cry, cry, cry
But nobody discovers me

Kick high, kick slow
Take a hot note, swing it low
For the thing that you give them
Has got to have plenty of rhythm, as you know

Ziegfeld created the glamour girl
A swell job you'll agree
Oh me, oh my, here am I with vitamins A to Z
But nobody discovers me

(Disney discovered the Seven Dwarfs)
(A-B-C-D-E-F-G)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Will nobody discover me)

Marconi discovered the radio
(I've sung at the BBC)
(Aahhh-oooh, aahhh-oooh)
(But nobody discovered me)

Kick high, kick low
Swing a hot foot, swing it low

(Swing high, swing low)
(Swing a hot foot, swing it low)
For the thing that you give them
Has got to have plenty of rhythm (There you go)

(Dance Routine)

(But nobody discovers me!)
