Honey, if I want to see theatre, I’ll go see a play! With no singing or dancing to get in the way! Theatre is language and that should be all Music belongs at the Carnegie Hall!

The story is moving Chocked full of suspense The plot takes a twist And the mood is intense Then someone sings a song (Like this!) That doesn’t make sense! Please! I hate musicals! I hate the new shows They’re nothing but sets! I miss the von Trapp kids The Sharks and the Jets! Unplug those keyboards!

Where can I get the piano sheet music for this song?
Honey, if I want to see
theatre, I’ll go see a play!
With no singing or dancing
to get in the way!
Theatre is language
and that should be all
Music belongs at the Carnegie Hall!
Not a reason on Earth, as far as I know
To write, mount, and
open a musical show!
Honey - I've been a theatre critic
For a hudnred years and it's
always the same...
The story is moving
Chocked full of suspense
The plot takes a twist
And the mood is intense
Then someone sings a song (Like this!)
That doesn’t make sense!
Please!
I hate musicals!
I hate the new shows
They’re nothing but sets!
I miss the von Trapp kids
The Sharks and the Jets!
Unplug those keyboards!
Give me real clarinets
Miss Otis says,
“With no regrets,
I hate musicals!”
There doesn’t seem to be
a shred of anything new!
The hottest shows were
all composed by late ’62!
Now if you want to create a sensation,
Use a Hollywood star and amplification!
And whether the show is a hit or a flop,
They sell T-shirts and caps
with their logo on top!
So even though ya hate the show,
At least ya can shop!
One size fits all
At a musical!
How I hated Phantom down
to each candelabra!
I took the book along and
read through Les Misera-blah!
When it comes to subtlety,
the Brits fall a hair short!
If I want helicopters,
I’ll go to the airport!
So keep your chorus lines
of gypsies and mames!
I’d rather see a flick
or bowl a few frames!
No matter who is starring,
I never entice!
It’s way overpriced
And I never pay!
Yes
I hate musicals!
But not as much as I hate…
…Ballet!
