Listen to that Will you listen to that? Do you know what that means? Let me tell you what that means Wait, no, anyone who even thinks it Don't say it, you'll jinx it Listen to that Will you listen to that? Does that make you feel proud? Well, feel more than just proud Okay, wait, I'll tempt fate And I'll state it out loud That unless I miss My guess is I can't stand it! Listen! Yes! That's the sound of a hit It's a hit! Gang, I think This is it No more writing clever little shows For those basement saloons No more proclamations from the pros That you can't hum the tunes No more sneaking in at intermission To the place you wish you could afford Or producers having you audition Whenever they're bored And who'll say right away As you play the first chord "Boys, that's just great, but next time Don't be so clever!" It's a hit! We're a hit! You're a hit! You should quit! No more coaching those sopranos With voices like bees No more secondhand pianos With six broken keys No more agents giving you opinions While they turn you over to their minions Just for these guarantees We should at least thank the Lord It's a hit! It's a hit! We are in-laws to spit After all that baloney They made you go through All that muttering that you're a phony 'Cause what do you do Will their faces be stony When they see on their Sony Someone handing the phony The Tony Award? I would like to begin by thanking everyone who turned Down everything I have written so I could win this! It's a hit! Hold it, folks, there's still the reviews left Both the Trib and the News left Early, surly Not a good sign Also, even if there's a chance, folks Let's not forget the advance, folks Not a lotta cash, folks Also, even if it's a smash, folks Doesn't that mean we sell out? Well, I hope we sell out What I mean is sell out Well, you know Success is like failure It's how you perceive it It's what you do with it Not how you achieve it And I can't believe It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's aโ€”! Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Tell me, is that a noise, or is that a noise? That is the noise we've been waiting The whole of our lives to hear Listen to that! Will you listen to that? Buddy, is that a noise, or is that a noise? Where's the machine? Gotta get it on tape for our wives to hear Listen to that! That's obscene! Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? Will you listen to that? That's the sound of an audience losing its mind It's the hope on its balcony blessing mankind Folks, it's funny Earl Fidler and Dolly Combined! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a palpable hit! If it only even lasts a minute At least it's a wedge It's the theater and we're really in it But just on the edge If your spirits ever need improving You can drop in any night for free But the thing that's positively moving You could have fooled me Is we're still good friends Nothing can kill good friends Where there's a will, good friends Don't need success to survive And us good friends What's to discuss, good friends? We've got a sharp eyed Genuine Block away Blockbuster Might of Broadway But all a sensational Box office Bada bada Gargantuan hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit! It's a hit!
