Show People Lyricsby . From Curtains Show People by Cioffi: You're a special kind of people known as show people You live in a world of your own The audience paid plenty to sit there and clap Hearing you sing Watching you tap Did you know your dentist longs to be in show business? Your window washer wants to be a star And though your analyst may never couch it that way - Carmen: (spoken) Analyst - Couch! Cioffi: -You don't know how lucky you are Some policemen and detectives dream of show business They can't get arrested but still They sit around the station and fancy this life. They jeer Sherlock Holmes and Cheer Mack the Knife. Carmen: Ask your cleaning lady, "Don't you dream of show business To vocalize or stretch beside a barre?" Cioffi: Her affirmative shrug As she shampoos your rug Both: Lets you know how luck you are! Oscar, Cioffi, and Carmen: There's a special kind of aura 'Round a show person (Just ask the next waiter you meet) Belling: He walks in fifth position His voice is just grand Georgia: He gives you the check You give him a hand All of them: If the boys in valet parking turned to show business They could scalp a higher ticket for your car Oscar: And my tree surgeon now Started taking a bough (spoken) A bough, get it? b-o-u-g-- The rest: -Don't know how lucky you are Company: We're a special kind of people known as show people We live in a world of our own Our days are tied to curtains They rise and they fall We're born every night At Half-hour call We can't picture being anything but show people Civilians find the whole thing quite bizarre But that hop in our hearts When the overture starts Helps us know how lucky we are! Carmen: (spoken) All right - EVERYBODY Full company: It's an honor and a joy to be in show business I feel that spotlight hit me and I'm gone At the last curtain call I'm the envy of all So I know the show must Carmen: Go on! Company: So Thrilling! We're show people! Carmen: And on! Company: So Willing! We're show people! Carmen: And on! Company: So Thrilling that show people All: GO ON!
