Why Do Broadway Musicals Appear So Rotten?
Tune: Daniel Decatur Emmett's "Dixie Land"
Why do Broadway musicals appear so rotten?
Old Times Square is long forgotten.
And the blame for the shame is the lame Disney fare.
Whether Disney's nominated for a Tony™—
Win or lose—it's still baloney,
'Cause the name of the game is the same Disney fare.
I've had my fill of Disney, okay? Okay?
If Disneyland is dull and bland, you ain't seen half of Disney!
It's tame. It's lame. It's shameless pap from Disney.
No Mame—no Fame—just aimless crap from Disney.
Dumb it down, to cater to the Friends Of Mickey;
No big words, and nothin' tricky
Is the goal and the role of the ol' Disney game.
Build a score of Reddi-wip™ and old marshmallow;
Hallmark™ rhymes—and keep it shallow;
Use the whole sugar bowl in the ol' Disney game!
Is wit reborn with Disney? No way, José!
Cole Porter's dead and Coward's fled, before the tripe of Disney.
If Noël is droll, it cuts no ice with Disney.
Does Cole have soul?—that don't mean squat to Disney!
