Star Of The Backstage

Script notes and sound cues
Take me there again
In my blacks in the backs of the wings
So I'm not seen

No one knows the magic
That hides behind the scenes

It's me!
The cast said yes! We're putting on a musical!

Places, everybody
It's time to start the show
That's what actors need me to say
Otherwise, they wouldn't know where to go

Cinch up the hemlines
Sound check all the mics
Close the door, ring the bell
And bring down the house lights

It's curtains up for marge bouvier
'Cause I'm once again the star
Of the backstage

Wow, you're the director?

No, more important
The stage manager
Five minutes, guys!

Thank you, five

Five minutes
I always used to love saying that, before

The endless loads of laundry
The dishes piled high
The whining and complaining

It's mine!

It's mine!

It's mine!

Enough!

I'm returning to my theater family
A revival of our fondest memories
Singin'

Do-re-mi-this-show-will be

The talk of the town
A hit, a smash, the rage

And there's nothing springfield needs more
Than a play!

Good!

'Cause I'm once again the
Appreciated, well-respected, never, ever disconnected
Nothing but the most impressive
Everybody's dearest friended
Star
Of the backstage

She's the star, see how she shines
She answers when we call for lines

Places, everybody!

Script notes and sound cues
They never saw me as a friend
In my blacks in the backs of the wings
I was unseen

So much for the magic
No one wants old Marjorie
