[NORMA]
Max! Where am I?

[MAX]
This is the entrance to the palace
And they're waiting for your dance

[NORMA]
Of course
Now I remember
I was so frightened I might fall

[MAX]
You are the greatest star of all!

[MAX, spoken]
Lights! Cameras! Action!

[NORMA]
When he scorned me I
Knew he had to die
Let me kiss his severed head
Compromise or death
He fought to his last breath
He never had it in him to surrender
Just like me, he never could surrender
[NORMA, spoken]
I can't go on with the scene! I’m sorry. I'm too happy! May I say a few words, Mister DeMille? I can't tell you how wonderful it is to back in this studio making a picture. I promise you - I will never desert you again. This is my life. It always will be. There is nothing else. Just us. And the cameras. And all you wonderful people, out there in the dark. And now, Mister DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up

[NORMA]
This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good
I'll be back where I was born to be
With one look I'll be me
