Theatre Is Fun Lyrics by Stephin Merritt

Coraline Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording

2010

[Other Miss Spink & Other Miss Forcible]
Theatre is fun!
There's a role for everyone
You simply stand upon a stage, and that is Art
Deliver one line, and it's a "part"
And if you don't know your line by heart?
Read your sleeve!
Theatre is grand!
You've got the world at your command
[Other Miss Forcible]
You simply say
[Other Miss Spink]
"I'm in Hawaii"
[Other Miss Forcible]
And you're there
[Other Miss Spink]
You can be Antigone
[Other Miss Forcible]
Or Cher
[Other Miss Spink]
Mention that you are a trillionaire
[Other Miss Spink & Other Miss Forcible]
And you are!
[Other Miss Spink]
It's the only way to find a lover
[Other Miss Forcible]
Sure beats hanging out in discotheques
[Other Miss Spink]
When your perfect lover you discover
[Other Miss Forcible]
You need only change your wig
[Other Miss Spink & Other Miss Forcible]
To change your sex
Whee, theatre is fun!
Why learn to play accordion
When you can play a virtuoso on the stage?
You can be a Queen, of any age
You can be a bum, and make a wage!
Of some sort
