  • Winning the best presentation award was the company of Avenue Q, which lamented The Lion King’s perennial status as the winner of the presentation award. In "Bonnet of Life," the Avenue Q cast delivered a side-splitting parody of the long-running Disney hit’s signature number "Circle of Life," which left the audience roaring.
    Lyrics:
    TREKKIE
    SSCCHHAAAADDEEENNFRRUUEEDDEE BABAKITHIBABO
    ENSEMBLE
    OOOOOOH, WHAT HE SAY?
    TREKKIE
    SHAAAAADEEENNNFFRRRUUEEEDDEEEE BABABOOBIESABO
    ENSEMBLE
    OOOOOOOOH WHAT HE SAY?
    WHAT HE SAY? WHAT HE SAY?
    WHAT HE SAY? WHAT HE SAY?
    ENSEMBLE
    PENGUINS ON THE BOTTOM
    PINK PAJAMAS
    PENGUINS ON THE BOTTOM
    GARY
    FROM THE DAY WE ARRIVED
    AT NEW WORLD STAGES,
    HIGHEST TOTAL OFF-BROADWAY
    WE’VE WON.
    BUT WITH COMPETITION HIGH,
    FOR THE BEST SKIT PRIZE,
    BY THE LION KING,
    WE ARE ALWAYS OUTDONE.
    THEY ARE FAR TOO FIT AND ATTRACTIVE
    WHILE OUR PUPPETS
    HAVE NO LEGS AT ALL.
    WE CAN CHOREOGRAPH A DANCE,
    FOR A SLUT WITH NO PANTS,
    OR SING A SONG ON ACOUSTIC GUITAR.
    ITS THE BONNET OF LIFE,
    AND TO WIN IT ALL,
    WE’LL NEED FAITH AND HOPE,
    AND JUDITH LIGHT.
    WE WILL MAKE A POINT
    HEARTFELT AND INSPIRING,
    AT THE BONNET,
    THE BONNET OF LIFE.
    ITS THE BONNET OF LIFE,
    AND TO WIN IT ALL,
    WE’LL NEED FAITH AND HOPE,
    AND JUDITH LIGHT.
    COMPANY
    TIL WE WIN FIRST PLACE
    OR AT LEAST BEAT LION KING,
    AT THE BONNET,
    THE BONNET OF LIFE!
