Frederic H. Mayerson - Where Did We Go Right? lyrics

MAX: Look at these reviews! "A satiric masterpiece." LEO: No way out MAX: "A surprise smash!" LEO: No way out MAX: "It was shocking, outrageous, insulting...and I loved every minute of it!" LEO: No way out MAX: How could this happen? The show was lousy and long We did everything wrong Where did we go right? LEO: "Christmas came early to Broadway this year - And guess who they stuffed in our stocking? Adolf Hitler!" MAX: It was so cra** and so crude Even Goebbels would've booed Where did we go right? LEO: "Last night a star was born on Broadway - the lovely Miss Ulla Inga Hansen Bensen Yonsen Tallen-Hallen Svaden-Svanson We predict that her name will soon be up in lights. If they can find enough bulbs MAX & LEO: We searched Broadway on and off For singers with a cough We had tryouts and auditions by the score And to trip the light fantastic We picked dancers who were spastic If anyone jeted, we jeted them out the door! MAX: They shouted hooray For that sausage on display Where did we go right? LEO: Our leading man was so gay He nearly flew away Where did we go right? MAX: A show so easy to despise... LEO: Now it's up for the Pulitzer Prize! MAX & LEO: Oh, where, oh, where, tell us Where did we go right? MAX: "The best new music of the decade! Max Bialystock is a theatrical genius!" Now they like me! Oh, we knew we couldn't lose MAX & LEO: Half the audience were Jews! LEO: It's the end of our careers MAX: It'll run for twenty years! MAX & LEO: Tell us where... Did we go right?!
