A MUSICAL - SOMETHING ROTTEN Lyrics
Composer * Wayne, Karey Kirkpatrick
Genre * Musical / Male Vocal
Producer * A. Pastor
=======================================================
Well that is the...
Stu-pi-dest thing that I have e-ver heard
You're do-ing a play, got some-thing to say
So you sing it?
It's ab-surd!
Who on earth is go-ing to sit there
While an ac-tor breaks in-to song?
What pos-sib-le thought could the au-di-ence think
O-ther than, "this is hor-rib-ly wrong?"
(Re-mar-kab-ly, they won't think that.
Se-ri-ous-ly? Why not?
Be-cause...)
It's a Mu-si-cal
A mu-si-cal
And no-thing's as a-maz-ing as
A mu-si-cal
Where croo-ners croon a cat-chy tune
And lim-ber lit-tle la-dies thrill ya 'til ya swoon
Oohs, aahs, big app-lause
And a stand-ing o-va-tion
The fu-ture is bright if you could just write
A mu-u-si-cal
Some make you hap-py
Some make you sad
Some are quite big
Some quite small
Some are too long
Some are just plays with song
Some mu-si-cals have
No talk-ing at all
(No talk-ing at all?)
That's right, there's no talk-ing
All of the di-a-logue is sung
In a ve-ry dra-ma-tic fa-shion
(Umm, real-ly?)
Yes, real-ly
(There's no talk)
There's no talk-ing
And they of-ten stay on one note for a ve-ry long time
So that when they change to a dif-fe-rent note
You no-tice
And it's sup-posed to cre-ate a dra-ma-tic eff-ect
But most-ly you just sit there ask-ing your-self
"Why a-ren't they talk-ing?"
(Sounds mi-se-ra-ble)
I bel-ieve it's pro-nounced
'Mi-ser-a-bles'
(And peo-ple act-ual-ly like this?
No, they Love it! And what's not to love!)
Five! Six! Se-ven! Eight!
(It's a mu-sic-al
Whad-da-ya-talk whad-da-ya-talk
It's a mu-si-cal
A Seus-si-cal?
No a mu-si-cal
With girls on stage)
A mu-si-cal
We've got sap-py re-par-tee
And the wo-men are ris-que
And the cho-rus boys are kind-of gay
A mu-si-cal
A big and shi-ny
Migh-ty fine-y
Glit-ter, glitz and cho-rus line-y
Bob your head and shake your hi-ney
Mu-si-cal
It's a mu-si-cal
I-it's a mu-si-cal
And for some un-ex-plai-na-ble rea-son
The crowd goes wild eve-ry time
When dan-cers kick in u-ni-son
In one big won-der-ful line
And then you got your-self
A spla-shy style
And a big, fake smile
A snaz-zy hand-some, jaz-zy hands
I swear that I'll
Cross my heart, hope to die
If it is-n't a doo-zy
Take it from me
They'll be flock-ing to see
Your star-lit, won't quit, big hit
Mu-si-cal
A big hit mu-si-cal!
