Lyrics:
They Should Have Given You the Oscar - Artist: James Darren as sung on "The Best Of James Darren" -Rhino Records R2 71664 -did not chart on Billboard (so why does this transcriber recall it? We're talking -Really obscure here!!) -Words and Music by Gerry Goffin and Carole King I'd like to contest the awards given out by the academy 'cause I know of a great performance that the judges didn't see They should have given you the oscar For the way you went and broke my heart There's no name that you could mention Who'd have done quite as much with a part And just for the way you said you loved me And the way you made each lie sound sincere Oh, they should have given you the oscar For the best performance of the year If the critics could have seen Your acting on the screen I'm sure they would have cried as much as I You knew your lines so well How was I supposed to tell That all along you loved another guy? They should have given you the oscar For the scene where you promised to be true Every word was so convincing Any audience would fall in love with you And just for the way you said you loved me And the way you made each lie sound sincere Oh, they should have given you the oscar For the best performance of the year Yeah they should have given you the oscar For the best performance of the year fade Yeah they should have given you the oscar For the best performance of the year Transcribed by Robin Hood These lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned above and do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheet music, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets.
