So Exciting! (The Pitch Song)

Oh, the story! Ah! Yes, uh

There'll be

Lovers

And singers

And entrepreneurs

Depravity

Ecstasy

And love that endures

Worthy of even the best rock on tour

A tale in the shadows of dear sacré-coeur

We! See!

Along the seine

Upon it's filthy shore

The bloated corpses of those

Killed the night before

But it's a family show

With art both high and low

A tale of love

And death

And sex

And money

Dancing and away we go

Sweet satine

Who plays our ingenue

A sparrow singing up and

Down each avenue

She wears a thin black dress

And tells a tale of woe

Of pain and loneliness

But that's not all, as these things go!

She's rather sick

With some obscure malaise

No doubt a crueler trick from

Wilder desperate days

But one day

Singing through her pain

The song kicks out the rain

And there he stands

A lover

Yes

One day, everything changes

When she meets a man

A man

Unlike any she has known

He's uh

A ventriloquist

No! He's a matador

Striding across the sands of destiny

No no no

He's a sailor

Yes! A sailor! That's it

A man who has spent his life voyaging across the turbulent seas

He's been searching for a mate

And now it seems like fate

A gift from God above

A love divine forevermore

Their bodies intertwined

But fate has many other things in store

There's a man who already claims her

An evil gangster who runs this town

She's unhappy and no one blames her

The most lascivious racketeer around

He buys her love

He buys her clothes

He's rough but this is all the poor girl knows

He buys her love

There's no escape

But now a triangle has taken shape

And so the sailor, driven mad

Determined to unseat this cad

Swears to risk his life for love

And there's our show

All of the above

A spectacle of savagery

A testament to lunacy

Fun for the whole family

And all of it designed by me

So exciting

The audience will stomp and cheer

So delighting

It will run for fifty years

So exciting

Make them laugh or make them cry

So delighting

And in the end should someone die?

So exciting

Make our dream reality

So delighting

Make it happen just for me

Make it happen just for me
