No Shame Theatre Song

(Jan 24, 2003 Version)

music by Jonathan Price

lyrics by Brian Anderson


Tonight is kinda creepy, with all you staring down
And with us singing in full voice, ....we're sure to fail right now....
We walked into this theater, a director caught our eye
He asked if we could sing on key,...we said we'd surely try...

Chorus
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
We're just three dumb guys.

A Man came up and said that we should get off this damn stage!
I wonder what will happen next?....I guess we'll turn the page...
(turning the page)
He yelled and screamed, tore up his script, this show will not go on!
He stormed right out of the theater... The director is now gone....

Chorus
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
Yes, we're winging it!
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
We're making up this shit!

We're standing here, in tacky clothes, and holding just a script..
And then we got up on this stage, ...(uncomfortable silence w/ vamp)...Oh...just. Fuck it....
What happened next we cannot tell, until we've sung this song.
And maybe we can have your help.. if you all just sing along...

Chorus
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
This is a bumpy ride!!
No Shame Theater! (No Shame Theater)
No Shame, .....don't mean no pride......
