Opening Night

Members of the audience, if you could please find your seats
Our production is about to begin
Alright, c'mon now we don't have all day

So, are you ready
Who? M-- me? Yeah, you already know, you feel me
I'm just... I'm always ready
Born ready, always ready
Are you nervous
What
You look nervous
I'm not-- I'm not nervous, I'm just... I mean
Maybe a little nervous, but, like... you know... I'm always a little nervous
You feel me? I'm ready to go
Okay, it's opening night, though. You know it's a big show
This one better count
Yeah, I remember. We-- we've-- we've talked about this before
I'm... listen you just gotta trust me on this one
Remember
Aw, here we go
It's not your show
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's just a play, it's just an act
It's only as real as you (I) make it
I remember, okay... I got it
Look, I'm... I don't want to miss my cue
Hey, hey hey! Hey... one more thing
What is it
Don't forget the mask
Yeah, I got it right here
How could I forget

And now, sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

They laugh to shield their crying
They shuffle through their dreams
They stepped 'n fetched a country
And wrote the blues in screams
I understand their meaning
It could an did derive
From living on the edge of death
They kept my race alive
By wearing the mask
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha
