The Show Must Go On — текст песни (Carly Simon)

Some folks like to stay at home
Some folks like to be alone
So when they finally come out of their nest
Ive got to turn it on
Ive got to be my best
The street may be slick with ice
And Im sick with butterflies
And some other girl may be the talk of the town
I could lose my voice
Or I could split my gown

But when Im in the spotlight
Its got to be a hot night
Even when Im feeling down
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on

Ive won some and I have lost
But what I enjoy the most
Is never knowing how the evening will end
Will I be the joke or the comedienne

And when Im in the spotlight
Its got to be a hot night

Even when Im shivering cold
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on
The show must go on

Repeat to end.

Background answers:
Even in a hurricane
Your contact lens goes down the drain
When your agent goes insane
When you can hardly stay awake
Youd rather stay at home and bake
When youve got a tummy-ache
To an audience of one
And you think hes got a gun
When laughing isnt any fun
You want to watch the end of Cheers
