After The Theatre

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Learn to play the lover's part It's really quite the art Every night at the second house Break their little hearts Push and tease them, try to please them Give them heart and soul Loved your act, want you back [Refrain] And after the theatre, there's always something Some gala production of one new Broadway show That gets lost out in New Haven But you're told that they loved you And you need that loving So you always do one more [Verse 2] It's not your placе to criticize You're not quite yеt a star Though I really must insist Things sometimes go too far You know you're act's the greatest thing Since two and two were five They'll love your act, want you back [Refrain] And after the theatre, there's one more opening They want one more movie or maybe just a tour Of the nightclubs, across all Europe There's west coasts and east coasts Back to the theatre Round and round you go [Refrain] And after the theatre, there's always nightlife And friendship abounds crawling out of every floor The brightness it damn near blinds you But they told you, they loved you, and you need that loving You always sing one more [Outro] So after the theatre, what really happens With no one around you It's one large empty One quite lonely room
