Academy Award Performance

歌詞

Ron Mael Play the shark Play the bride Joan of Arc Mrs. Hyde You're a girl with a thousand faces to choose from, do one Do the saint Do the waif Do the child That was great Great performances only come with some inspiration CHORUS Oh, what a great performance What a convincing performance An Academy Award performance Well produced Clever lines Well rehearsed Well defined There's a goldmine in what you do, but of course you know that That's not bad Nor is that Very good So was that On behalf of the guys you've known, here's your golden trophy CHORUS Play the scene Naturelle Drop the lights Drop the towel No director can tell you what you should do, you'll do it What panache Oh, what style Pack the house Pack the aisles Everyone's in the dark when you're in the room, those rumors
