Simple Ballet
[Verse 1]
In the city, in the country
In the towns throughout the world
All will join in, in the big scene
So won't you please take off your shoes?
[Chorus 1]
It's a ballet, simple ballet
So let's dance on
Pick a partner, take a tall one
Take a small one, take a fat one
And let's dance on
[Verse 2]
Crews will film it, add the music
While the world has its feet engaged
Some critics love it, yet some pan it
Some say, "It's likely to cause a rage"
[Chorus 2]
There'll be long shots
There'll be close shots
There'll be mid-shots
Simple ballet was an idea
Then a novel, next a movie
Soon on TV
Oh, no!
[Bridge]
It's promotion of a new way of thinking
Instead of "Hey, orange drink," vendors will say
"Get your souvenir posters of the ballet!"
[Chorus 3]
Do a plie for the D.A. when he comes 'round
Your alleged conduct with the director
Has raised some questions that he wants answered
Good for the ratings
[Chorus 4]
It's a ballet, we thought a ballet
And we danced on
We had no idea you'd hang your coat on
An issue thin as tissue
So we danced our ballet
[Outro]
And we danced our ballet
And we danced our ballet
And we danced our ballet
And I danced our ballet
