Mel Brooks, Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick - There's Nothing Like a Show on Broadway lyrics
[Mel Brooks, Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick - There's Nothing Like a Show on Broadway lyrics]
The overture is over
The curtain starts to rise
You're suddenly in clover
You can't believe your eyes
You're sitting on the aisle
You break into a smile
Why this magic feeling? And then you realize
That there is-
Nothing like a show on Broadway
Nothing like a Broadway show
Hearts will skip a beat on Broadway
If you're feeling blue, I'm telling you
That's the place to go
Movies drag, their endings sag
TV's just a bore
So hit the street and move your feet
To the place we all adorе
Because therе's nothing like a
Show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
It's often been said that theatre is dead
The critics repeat it en masse
Well, the theatre's alive and
It's gonna survive
Although it's a pain in the ass
You waited forever and finally got tickets
To get to your seat, you gotta cross pickets
The guy to your right is frightf'lly tight
The guy to your left appears to have rickets
The music's yuck, the lyrics suck
The casting is all wrong
And when you reach the bathroom
The line is five miles long!
But still there's nothing like
A show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
You swear you'll never go again
"It's simply not worthwhile"
You make that vow and then somehow-
You're back there on the aisle
That's why there's nothing like
A show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show!
('Til you're in movies)
There's nothing like a Broadway show!
And though it is expensive and
A hundred bucks a throw
There's nothing like a Broadway show
The curtain starts to rise
You're suddenly in clover
You can't believe your eyes
You're sitting on the aisle
You break into a smile
Why this magic feeling? And then you realize
That there is-
Nothing like a show on Broadway
Nothing like a Broadway show
Hearts will skip a beat on Broadway
If you're feeling blue, I'm telling you
That's the place to go
Movies drag, their endings sag
TV's just a bore
So hit the street and move your feet
To the place we all adorе
Because therе's nothing like a
Show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
It's often been said that theatre is dead
The critics repeat it en masse
Well, the theatre's alive and
It's gonna survive
Although it's a pain in the ass
You waited forever and finally got tickets
To get to your seat, you gotta cross pickets
The guy to your right is frightf'lly tight
The guy to your left appears to have rickets
The music's yuck, the lyrics suck
The casting is all wrong
And when you reach the bathroom
The line is five miles long!
But still there's nothing like
A show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
You swear you'll never go again
"It's simply not worthwhile"
You make that vow and then somehow-
You're back there on the aisle
That's why there's nothing like
A show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show!
('Til you're in movies)
There's nothing like a Broadway show!
And though it is expensive and
A hundred bucks a throw
There's nothing like a Broadway show
