Lyric Matinee Idyll (129) (P Judd, T Finn) 2:57

Hiding in the wings forever
We ll take the stage, cos it s now or never
And the whole thing reeks of cheap striptease
The matinee idylls they all fall to their knees

It s not all first nights at all
There s nothing more dull than a curtain call
`get on with it

Playing Romeo, you make your debut, ha!
Rose red cheeks but your face is all blue
It s not all bouquets & white crayons
They re going to laugh when you look down
I m going to ask you if you want to be a chorus boy
You can mime the tragedy while we all sing along

It s not all first nights at all
There s nothing more dull than a curtain call
`jolly good show everyone
