Lyrics
The overture is over
The curtain starts to rise
You're suddenly in clover
You can't believe your eyes
You're sitting on the aisle
You break into a smile
Why this magic feeling?
And then you realize...
That there is nothing like a show on Broadway
Nothing like a Broadway show
Hearts will skip a beat on Broadway
If you're feeling blue
I'm telling you, that's the place to go
Movies drag, their endings sag
TV's just a bore
So hit the street and move your feet
To the place we all adore
Because there's nothing like a show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
It's often been said, "The theatre is dead"
The critics repeat it en masse
But the theatre's alive, it's gonna survive
Although it's a pain in the ass
You waited forever and finally got tickets
To get to your seat, you gotta cross pickets
The guy to your right is frightfully tight
The guy to your left appears to have rickets
The music's yuck, the lyrics suck
The casting is all wrong
And when you reach the bathroom
The line is five miles long
But still, there's nothing like a show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
You swear you'll never go again
It's simply not worthwhile
You make that vow and then, somehow
You're back there on the aisle
That's why there's nothing like a show on Broadway
There's nothing like a Broadway show
Tell your removees
There's nothing like a Broadway show
And though it is expensive at a hundred bucks a throw
There's nothing like a Broadway show
