Come on bring up the curtain and let the play being |
|
We are actors and here's our gig |
|
Life's a stage where it takes your best to win |
|
So give it your all folks while you may |
|
Too soon the shadows they call |
|
And someday that curtain will fall |
|
If you are rich , if you are poor |
|
It's all the same |
|
I'm sure When the curtain comes down |
|
Just go along doing your best |
|
And you'll find peace and rest |
|
When the curtain comes down |
|
What if everything goes wrong |
|
What if sorrow comes along |
|
Hide your feelings from the throne |
|
Life can't always be a song |
|
While you are here if you play fair |
|
You will be welcomed up there |
|
When the curtain comes down |
|
While the heroes are applauded |
|
The villain is hist |
|
The heroin's happy |
|
She's fond of and pissed |
|
We smile at the ending |
|
We'll laugh at the clown |
|
And when it's all over |
|
The curtain,the curtain comes down |
