Opera Bows lyrics
by Sparks
[Henry:]
Wish that she could be here now
But she's at the opera tonight
Opera, where everything is... Sacred
[Chorus girls:]
Amen!
[Henry:]
First she dies and dies and dies
And then she bows and bows and bows
She’ll be bowing now 'til dawn
Ann, dear, I love you so
But all that bowing's gotta go
Take a last bow—enough!
Make it seem more off the cuff
[Woman in audience:]
But Henry, you didn’t answer: why?
Yes why did you become a comedian?
So why did you become a comedian?
Yes why did you become a comedian?
Hеy, Henry!?
[Henry:]
Why? I'll tell you why
To disarm peoplе
Make them laugh
It's the only way I know to tell the truth
Without getting killed
OK, well that's it for tonight!
Oh no, no!
