19.There's No Business Like Show Business
Lyrics：Irving Berlin
Music：Irving Berlin
Arranger：Axel Stordahl
There's no business like show business like no business I know
Everything about it is appealing, everything that traffic will
allow
Nowhere could you get that happy feeling when you are stealing
that extra bow
There's no people like show people, they smile when they are low
Even with a turkey that you know will fold, you may be stranded
out in the cold
Still you wouldn't change it for a sack of gold, let's go on
with the show
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Are secretly unhappy men because
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Get paid for what they do but no applause.
They'd gladly bid their dreary jobs goodbye for anything
theatrical and why？
There's no business like show business and I tell you it's so
Traveling through the country is so thrilling, standing out in
front on opening nights
Smiling as you watch the theater filling, and there's your
billing out there in lights
There's no people like show people, they smile when they are low
Angels come from everywhere with lots of jack, and when you lose
it, there's no attack
Where could you get money that you don't give back？ Let's go on
with the show
(There's no business like show business like no business I know)
You get word before the show has started that your favorite
uncle died at dawn
Top of that, your pa and ma have parted, you're broken-hearted,
but you go on
(There's no people like show people, they smile when they are
low)
Yesterday they told you you would not go far, that night you
open and there you are
Next day on your dressing room they've hung a star, let's go on
with the show!!
