Mine by Cy Coleman, On the Twentieth Century Original Broadway Cast Lyrics

[BRUCE, spoken]
The mirror tells me she's mine
[OSCAR, spoken]
The mirror tells me...she'll be mine again
[sung]
Your flashing wit
[BRUCE]
Your flashing eyes
[OSCAR]
Your brilliant brain
[BRUCE]
Your brutal thighs

[both]
These are the tools you've got at your command
[OSCAR]
To make her mine
[BRUCE]
To keep her mine!
[OSCAR]
To make her mine!
[BRUCE]
Your crooked smile
[OSCAR]
Your inner fire
[BRUCE]
That spells romance
[OSCAR]
That sparks desire

[BRUCE]
Cuddly, crunchy
[Both]
You've got what the ladies cry for
[OSCAR]
Crafty, cunning
[Both]
You are what they'd gladly die for
[OSCAR]
Talent, genius
[both]
You'rе the stuff that dreams are madе of
[BRUCE]
He-man, lover
[both]
What have you to be afraid of?
What have you to be afraid of?!
You're almost perfect
But one thing is true
You need her desperately
But he does not need you!

[OSCAR]
She runs the show
[BRUCE]
She runs the show
[OSCAR]
She leads the band
[BRUCE]
She leads the band
[OSCAR]
The royal flush
[BRUCE]
The royal flush
[OSCAR]
Is in her hand
[BRUCE]
Is in her hand

[both]
Face it, old boy
You can't afford to fail
Must not fail
Dare not fail
Will not fail!
[OSCAR]
So flash that wit
[BRUCE]
And flash those eyes
[OSCAR]
And use that brain
[BRUCE]
And use those thighs

[both]
Hey team, yay team
Break right through the line!
There is no stronger challenge than
An independent woman...
You can do it!
You can do it!
[OSCAR]
Got to make her
[BRUCE]
Got to keep her
[both]
Mine, mine, mine
All mine!
