《King of Broadway》歌词

[00:00:00] The King of Broadway (45 Edit) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)

[00:00:04] I used to be the king, the king of old Broadway

[00:00:12] The best of ev'rything was mine to have each day

[00:00:21] I always had the biggest hits

[00:00:24] The biggest bathrooms at the Ritz

[00:00:26] My showgirls had the biggest tits!

[00:00:27] I never was the pits in any way!

[00:00:30] We believe you, thousands wouldn't

[00:00:32] We believe you, ev'ry word

[00:00:35] We believe you, thousands couldn't

[00:00:38] We believe each word we've heard

[00:00:46] I used to be the king...

[00:00:49] The King?

[00:00:50] The king of old Broadway...

[00:00:54] My praises they would sing

[00:00:57] A Ziegfeld so they'd say

[00:01:06] My shows were always filled with class

[00:01:08] The best champagnes would fill my glass

[00:01:10] My lap was filled with gorgeous ass

[00:01:12] You couldn't call me crass in any way!

[00:01:14] We believe you, thousands wouldn't

[00:01:16] We believe you, ev'ry word

[00:01:19] We believe you, thousands couldn't

[00:01:22] We believe each word we've heard

[00:01:25] There was a time

[00:01:28] When I was young and gay...

[00:01:30] But straight

[00:01:31] There was a time

[00:01:33] When I was bold

[00:01:36] There was a time

[00:01:39] When each and ev'ry play I touched

[00:01:44] Would turn to gold

[00:01:48] There was a time

[00:01:51] He wore the finest clothes

[00:01:54] His shoes were always new

[00:01:59] Ahh!

[00:02:01] Now I wear a rented tux

[00:02:06] That's two weeks overdue!

[00:02:11] Poor Bialy, what a shmoozer

[00:02:14] Poor Bialy, what a shame

[00:02:17] Poor Bialy, what a loser

[00:02:20] Poor Bialy, goodbye fame

[00:02:24] Such reviews! How dare they insult me in this manner?

[00:02:27] How quickly they forget. I am Max Bialystock!

[00:02:29] The first producer ever to do summer stock in the winter!

[00:02:34] Once he was the king...

[00:02:37] You've heard of Theatre in the Round?

[00:02:39] You're looking at the man who invented Theatre in the Square!

[00:02:42] Nobody had a good seat!

[00:02:44] King of old Broadway

[00:02:46] I've spent my entire life in the theater.

[00:02:49] I was a protege of the great Boris Tomaschevski.

[00:02:52] Yes. He taught me everything I know.

[00:02:56] I'll never forget, he turned to me on his deathbed and said,

[00:03:01] "Maxella, alle menschen muss zu machen, jeden tug a gentzen kachen!"

[00:03:08] What does that mean?

[00:03:09] Who knows? I don't speak Yiddish. Strangely enough, neither did he.

[00:03:15] But in my heart I knew what he was saying.

[00:03:18] He was saying, when you're down and out, and everybody thinks you're finished,

[00:03:21] That's the time to stand up on your two feet and shout,

[00:03:26] "Who do you have to f**k to get a break in this town?!"

[00:03:29] Yay!

[00:03:36] I used to be the king

[00:03:59] The king of old Broadway

[00:04:02] Again I will be king

[00:04:05] And be on top to stay

[00:04:07] There'll be gala opening nights again

[00:04:13] You'll see my name in lights again

[00:04:16] I'll go from dark to brights again

[00:04:18] My spirits high as kites again

[00:04:20] I'll never suffer slights again

[00:04:22] I'll taste those sweet delights again

[00:04:23] No plethora of plights again

[00:04:25] No blossoming of blights again

[00:04:26] No frantic fits or frights again

[00:04:28] Fame is in my sights again

[00:04:29] I'll take those fancy flights again

[00:04:31] I'm gonna scare the heights again

[00:04:35] Bialystock will never drop

[00:04:39] Bialystock will never stop...

[00:04:44] Bialystock will be on top again

[00:04:49] Fame is in his sights again

[00:04:50] He'll take those fancy flights again

[00:04:51] He's gonna scale the heights again

[00:04:52] I'll be on top again, hey!
