You Ought to Be in Pictures lyrics
I have been straining to catch the words from a Mitch Miller recording and have all but one line figured out. I'll post what I have in the hopes that someone might be able to fill in that missing line:
You oughta be in pictures, you're wonderful to see,
You oughta be in pictures, O what a hit you would be,
Your voice would thrill a nation, Your face would be adored,
You'd make a great sensation with wealth and fame your reward,
And if you should kiss the way you kiss when we are all alone,
You'd make every girl and man a fan, worshiping at your throne,
You ought to shine as brightly as Jupiter and Mars,
You oughta be in pictures, my star of stars.

As I look at you, a thought goes through my mind
What a marvellous find you'd make upon the screen
I am proud that I have you right by my side
But i'd be satisfied, to lend you to the people to be seen...
You oughta be in pictures, You’re wonderful to see,
You oughta be in pictures, How beautiful you would be,
Your voice would thrill a nation, Your face would be adored,
You’d make a great sensation with wealth and fame your reward,
And if you should kiss the way you kiss when we are all alone,
You’d make every girl and man a fan worshipping at your throne,
You ought to shine as brightly as Jupiter and Mars,
You oughta be in pictures, my star of stars.
Your lovely as a Crawford, like Davis you're a gaye,
You surely should be offered a big starring part right away!

I finally have all the lyrics. I caught the missing words listening to Doris Day's slower rendition online. Here is the complete text:
You oughta be in pictures, You’re wonderful to see,
You oughta be in pictures, O what a hit you would be,
Your voice would thrill a nation, Your face would be adored,
You’d make a great sensation with wealth and fame your reward,
And if you should kiss the way you kiss when we are all alone,
You’d make every girl and man a fan worshipping at your throne,
You ought to shine as brightly as Jupiter and Mars,
You oughta be in pictures, my star of stars.
