Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Thus for fairy stories end
Only an actress would pretend
Affairs of state
Are her latest play
Eight shows a week
Two matinees
My how the worms begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn?
My how the worms begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn?
[Verse 2]
The chorus girl
Hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't go scrambling over the backs
Of the poor to be accepted
By making donations
Just large enough
To the correct charity
She won't be president
Of your wonderful societies of philanthropy
Even if you asked her to be
As you should have asked her to be
[Verse 3]
The actress hasn't learned the lines
You'd like to hear
She won't join your clubs
She won't dance in your halls
She won't help the hungry once a month
At tombolas
She'll simply take control as you disappear
[Verse 4]
Forgive my intrusion
But fine as those sentiments sound
Little has changed
For us peasants down here on the ground
I hate to sound childish
Ungrateful, I don't like to moan
But do you now represent
Anyone' cause but your own?
Everything done
Will be justified by my foundation
Written by: Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tim Rice
