That's Entertainment／島田歌穂 歌詞

歌：島田歌穂

作詞：Howard Dietz

作曲：Arthur Schwartz

Everything that happens in life
can happen in a show
You can make them laugh
You can make them cry
Anything, anything can go

The clown with his pants falling down
or the dance that's a dream of romance
or the scene, where the villian is mean
That's entertainment!

The lights on the lady in tights
or the bride with a guy on the side
or the ball where she gives him her all
That's entertainment!

The plot can be hot, simply teeming with sex
A gay divorcee who is after her "ex"
It could be Oedipus rex
Where a chap kills his father
and causes a lot of bother

The clerk who is thrown out of work
by the boss who is thrown for a loss
by the skirt who is doing him dirt

The world is a stage
the stage is a world of entertainment!

It might be a fight like you see on the screen
A swain getting slain for the love of a queen
Some great Shakespearean scene
Where a ghost and a prince meet
and every one ends in mince meat

The gag may be waving the flag
that began with a Mister Cohan
Hip hurray the American way

The world is a stage
the stage is a world of entertainment!
