When We Were Young and Trod the Boards

Lyrics

[Miss Forcible] When we were young and trod the boards Our cardboard lyres played silver chords And flowers were flung We gave our all each matinee And never named the Scottish play [Miss Spink & Miss Forcible] When we were young [Miss Forcible] When I played St. Joan Their minds were blown [Miss Spink] And yours too It was for my tone That I was known [MIss Forcible] All too true [Miss Spink] We sported hats with six foot plumes And wore no green in dressing rooms We flew [Miss Forcible] We swung Princes came to see Me as Ophe- Lia [Miss Spink] Me too I made Portia mine [Miss Forcible] You said each line Right on cue [Miss Spink & Miss Forcible] We bounced about With cardboard swords When we were young And trod the boards We trod the boards Luvvy
