Everything that happens 
in life happens in a show 
You can make 'em laugh 

You can make 'em cry 
Anything, anything can go 
The clown with his 
pants falling down 

Or the dance that's 
the 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 her all 
That's entertainment 

The plot can be hot 
simply teaming 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 slung 
for a loss by the skirt 

Who is doing him dirt 
The world is a stage 
The stage is a world 
of entertainment 

The clown with his 
pants falling down 
Or the dance that's 
the 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 her all 
That's entertainment 
It might be a scene 
like you see on the screen 

A swain getting slain 
for the love of a queen 
Some great 
Shakespearean scene 

Where a ghost 
and a prince meet and 
everything ends 
in mincemeat 

The gag maybe 
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...
