Miss Lapotaire
Artist: Roger Whittaker
Title: Miss Lapotaire
-----------------------
I'm one of the backstage boys.
I shift the scenery.
I try not to make a noise,
while I move away the greenery
or the front drum set,
the Bank ride scene.
You'll see me movin' in between
I'm the shadow of a shadow show.
If you don't know I'm there,
I've done it right.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
She sings the sparrow songs.
She moves the people so.
She moves the all night long.
Me, I move the piano and the base I led
and the cigarette.
You lonely see my silhouette
I'm did it in a naked blame
I'll be made, standing this days right.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
She moves ahead and she weeks an eye
Oh, she never had to learn that line.
She knock's some dad and you'll hear me cry.
Please, tell my heart one more time.
I've see them come and go
I've worked with all the names.
Done every kind of show,
treating heroes and pan tow Danes
and the up less stars and the circus clowns.
I put it up and I pull it down
I'm the maker of the masquerade.
My part is playing; I'll be there just out of sight.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
She moves ahead and she weeks an eye
Oh, she never had to learn that line.
She knock's some dad and you'll hear me cry.
Please, tell my heart one more time
I'm one of the backstage boys.
I shift the scenery.
I try not to make a noise,
while I move away the greenery
or the front drum set,
the Bank ride scene
You'll see me movin' in between.
I'm the shadow of a shadow show.
You don't know I'm there,
I've done it right.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
You've come to see Miss Lapotaire tonight.
