[Stephin Merritt, January LaVoy, Francis Jue - Theatre Is Fun lyrics]
You simply stand upon a stage
And that is Art
Deliver one line, and it's a "part"
And if you don't know your line by heart?
Read your sleeve!
Theatre is grand!
You've got the world at your command
You simply say
"I'm in Hawaii"
And you're there
You can be Antigone
Or Cher
Mention that you are a trillionaire
And you are!
It's the only way to find a lover
Sure beats hanging out in discotheques
When your perfect lover you discover
You need only change your wig
To change your sex
Whee, theatre is fun!
Why learn to play accordion
When you can play a virtuoso on the stage?
You can be a Queen, of any age
You can be a bum, and make a wage!
Of some sort
