The World's Greatest Number

from Tui by James Constable

lyrics

It's coming close to curtain call
This is why I couldn't sleep last night
I feel pinned against the wall
To be honest, if I broke a leg, I wouldn't mind

In the wings, all I can see
Is the director whose been so mean to me
In my mind he says carefully:
"I'd never lie to you, but you lie about me!"

It's time to push all that aside
There's not enough time to try to hide
It's time for the world's greatest number
We're going down swinging so let's all cheer!
It's gonna be good, I know it
It's gonna be good, I know it

I see the Aussies, they are on fire
With singing voices I could only dream to have
All the crew is in the same attire
But there's so many different faces in this cast.

It's time to push all that aside
There's not enough time to try to hide
It's time for the world's greatest number
We're going down swinging so let's all cheer!
It's gonna be good, I know it
It's gonna be good, I know it

As you can see, all the world's a stage
So many people; servent, prince, vizer
So, together, let's turn the page
The finale of the world is almost here

It's time to push all that aside
There's not enough time to try to hide
It's time for the world's greatest number
We're going down swinging so let's all cheer!
It's gonna be good, I know it
It's gonna be good, I know it
