    The speaker recalls wanting recognition through a wealthy but ugly boyfriend who showed her off, but her dreams of having her own act were always denied until meeting Amos, who was safe but lacked passion. She began an affair with Fred Casely who promised to get her into movies, but that failed, yet now with recent publicity her dreams of success have been fulfilled with opportunities instead of rejections.

    You know, I always wanted to have my name on the papers.

    Before I met Amos, I used to date this wealthy dude, ugly bootlegger. He used to take me out and show me off. Ugly guys like to do that. You know all my life, I wanted to have my own act. But, no... Always no, they always turned me down. One big world-full of no. And then Amos came along. Safe sweet Amos. Who never says no. I'm gonna tell you the truth. Not that the truth really matters. But I'm gonna tell you anyway. In the bed department, Amos was... zero. I mean, when he made love to me,it goes like... was he fixing a carburetor or something. I love you, honey... Anyway, I start to fool around. And I start screwing around. Which is fooling around without dinner. Then I met Fred Casely. He said he could get me into a bought film. But that didn't quite work out like I planned. So I gave up the whole idea. And now, with all this publicity, I got me a world full of yes!
