Later, when I was in middle school, I was watching the Tony Awards (before I really realized exactly what it was all about) and someone sang a bit of "Some People" from Gypsy as part of a big medley:
"Get yourself some new orchestrations, new routines and red velvet curtains
Get a feathered hat for the baby, photographed in front of the theater
Get an agent and in jig time, you'll be being booked in the big time"
The lyrics and that rhythmic pattern were pretty cool to my fairly inexperienced ears.
