The clown with his pants falling down Or the dance that's a dream of romance Or the scene where the villain is mean That's entertainment! The lights on the lady in tights Or the bride with the guy on the side Or the ball where she gives him a roar That's entertainment! The plot can be hot, simply teeming with sex A gay divorcee who is after her ex It can be Oedipus Rex Where a chap kills his father And causes a lot of bother The clerk who is thrown out of work By the boss who is thrown for a loss By this girl who is doing him dirt The world is a stage, The stage is a world of entertainment! It might be a fight like you see on the screen A swain getting slain for the lot of a queen SongtexteSome great Shakespearean scene Where a ghost and a prince meet And everyone ends in mincemeats The gag may be waving the flag That began with a mystical hand Hip hooray, the American way The world is a stage, The stage is a world of entertainment!
