Matinee Idyll |
| Hiding in the wings forever |
| We’ll take the stage, cos it’s now or never |
| And the whole thing reeks of cheap striptease |
| The matinee idylls they all fall to their knees |
| It’s not all first nights at all |
| There’s nothing more dull than a curtain call |
| 'get on with it' |
| Playing Romeo, you make your debut (yes you do) |
| Rose red cheeks but your face is all blue |
| It’s not all bouquets & white crayons |
| They’re going to laugh when you look down |
| I’m going to ask you if you want to be a chorus boy |
| You can mime the tragedy while we all sing along |
| But it’s |
| It’s not all first nights at all |
| There’s nothing more dull than a curtain call |
| 'jolly good show' |
