Another Op’nin’, Another Show (1999 Revised) Lyrics by Cole Porter

2000

[STAGE DOORMAN]
Another op'nin', another show
[1ST STAGEHAND]
In Philly, Boston or Baltimo'
[2ND & 3RD STAGEHANDS]
A chance for stage folks to say hello
[HATTIE]
Another op'nin' of another show
Another op'nin', another show
In Philly, Boston or Baltimo'
[WARDROBE LADY]
A chance for stage folks to say hello
[HATTIE & WARDROBE LADY]
Another op'nin' of another show
[HATTIE]
Another job that you hope, at last
Will make your future forget your past
Another pain where the ulcers grow
[HATTIE & WARDROBE LADY]
Another op'nin' of another show
[HATTIE]
Four weeks, you rehearse and rehearse
Three weeks, and it couldn't be worse
One week, will it ever be right?
Then out o' the hat, it's that big first night!
[HATTIE, POPS & THREE STAGEHANDS]
The overturе is about to start
You cross your fingers and hold your heart
It's curtain time and away wе go!
[ENSEMBLE (ALL)]
Another op'nin', another show
[MEN]
In Philly, Boston or Baltimo'
[WOMEN]
A chance for stage folks to say hello
[ALL]
Another op'nin', another show
Another job that you hope, at last
Will make your future forget your past
Another pain where the ulcers grow
Another op'nin' of another show
[HATTIE]
Four weeks, you rehearse and rehearse
[PAUL]
Three weeks, and it couldn't be worse
[HATTIE]
One week, will it ever be right?
[HATTIE & PAUL]
Then out o' the hat, it's that big first night!
[ALL]
The overture is about to start
You cross your fingers and hold your heart
It's curtain time and away we go!
Another op'nin' of another show
(Instrumental)
Overture
(Instrumental)
[ALL (except HATTIE)]
Four weeks, you rehearse and rehearse
Three weeks, and it couldn't be worse
One week, will it ever be right?
Then out o' the hat, it's that (spoken) big first night!
[HATTIE]
Another op'nin', another show
[WOMEN]
Another op'nin'
[WOMEN, MEN & HATTIE]
Another show (Yeah!)
[ENSEMBLE & HATTIE]
Another op'nin' (Alright!)
Another op'nin' (Hey!)
Another op'nin', another show (Ooh!)
It's another op'nin' of another show (La la la la ooh la ooh yeah)
[HATTIE (freely) & ENSEMBLE]
The overture is about to start, Another show!
You cross your fingers and hold your heart, Another show!
It's curtain time and away we go!
[ALL]
Another op'nin'
Just another op'nin' of another show!
