Comedy Tonight |
| Something familiar, |
| Something peculiar, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Something appealing, |
| Something appalling, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Nothing with kings, nothing with crowns; |
| Bring on the lovers, liars and clowns! |
| Old situations, |
| New complications, |
| Nothing portentous or polite; |
| Tragedy tomorrow, |
| Comedy tonight! |
| Something convulsive, |
| Something repulsive, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Something aesthetic, |
| Something frenetic, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Nothing with gods, nothing with fate; |
| Weighty affairs will just have to wait! |
| Nothing that’s formal, |
| Nothing that’s normal, |
| No recitations to recite; |
| Open up the curtain: |
| Comedy Tonight! |
| Something erratic, |
| Something dramatic, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Frenzy and frolic, |
| Strictly symbolic, |
| Something for everyone: |
| A comedy tonight! |
| Something familiar, |
| Something peculiar, |
| Something for everybody: |
| Comedy tonight! |
| Something that’s gaudy, |
| Something that’s bawdy-- |
| Something for everybawdy! |
| Comedy tonight! |
| Nothing that’s grim. |
| Nothing that’s Greek. |
| She plays Medea later this week. |
| Stunning surprises! |
| Cunning disguises! |
| Hundreds of actors out of sight! |
| Pantaloons and tunics! |
| Courtesans and eunuchs! |
| Funerals and chases! |
| Baritones and basses! |
| Panderers! |
| Philanderers! |
| Cupidity! |
| Timidity! |
| Mistakes! |
| Fakes! |
| Rhymes! |
| Crimes! |
| Tumblers! |
| Grumblers! |
| Bumblers! |
| Fumblers! |
| No royal curse, no Trojan horse, |
| And a happy ending, of course! |
| Goodness and badness, |
| Panic is madness-- |
| This time it all turns out all right! |
| Tragedy tomorrow, |
| Comedy tonight! |
