Sparks - Simple Ballet lyrics

In the city, in the country, in the towns throughout the world All will join in, in the big scene, So won't you please take off your shoes? It's a ballet, simple ballet, so let's dance on Pick a partner, take a tall one, take a small one, take a fat one and let's dance on Crews will film it, add the music while the world has its feet engaged Some critics love it, yet some pan it, some say "it's likely to cause a rage" There'll be long shots, there'll be close shots, there'll be mid-shots Simple ballet was an idea, then a novel, next a movie, soon on T.V. It's promotion of a new way of thinking Instead of "Hey, orange drink," vendors will say, "get your souvenir posters of the ballet." Do a plie for the D.A. when he comes round Your alleged conduct with the director has raised some questions that he wants answered (Good for the ratings) It's a ballet, we thought a ballet and we danced on We had no idea you'd hang out your coat on an issue thin as tissue so we danced our ballet And we danced our ballet And we danced our ballet
