Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Dee da, da dee da da da dee da dee
Dee da, da dee da da da dee da dee
Da dee da da da da
Da dee da da da da
Da dee da da da da
Da dee da da da da
Da dee da da da dee da da da da, da da, ah

[Verse 2]
I've heard that all the world is just a stage
On which we live life's drama page by page
We're each assigned a part
And given lines to say
Well, I know mine by heart
But no one wants to play

[Bridge]
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee

[Verse 3]
I'm sure that I could be a hit
If life would simply quit
Upstaging me a bit

[Verse 4]
I'm oh, so well rehearsed in all my cues
I know the gestures I'm supposed to use
But what good does it do
To know the whole routine
If you're not sure that you
Will ever make th5 scene?

[Verse 5]
My timing's just as smooth as it can be
And my t5chnique's been called a joy to see
I improvise with soul
I'm versed in many things
But still, my only role
Is watching from the wings

[Verse 6]
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah, ah ah
But what good does it do
To know the whole routine
If you're not sure that you
Will ever make the scene?

[Outro]
Ah, ah, ah
