Theatre
Theatre, theatre,
How it can closely resemble our lives
We tend to criticize, dramatize!
Our heads can become oversized
And yet, we’re masters of disguise!
How could you be scandalous
We’d never do that on our own!
We never prod the common lad
Or the King upon his throne!
The wretched, adulterous woman
And her do no wrong groom
One or both is telling an awful lie
We’ll find out which one soon!
The evil witch, to the heartsick lovers
Or Rapunzel with her draping hair
Poverty, prejudice, you just name it
We’ll tackle everything out there!
Theatre, theatre
Life is but a production on the grandest stage
It’s in different rooms, different places
And yet, it’s all the same!
And with all the time that has passed
It still has yet to fade
