HELLO ARTSIE

 

Hello Artsie

Well hello Artsie

It’s so great to celebrate us every year

 

You’re 10 years old Artsie

Now we’re sold Artsie

And we’re overjoyed you filled the void

Since Phoebe’s gone

 

We’ll hear some flowery speeches

And some piercing screeches

From those young theatric types right down your row

so

Glad you’re here Artsie

Now that you’re 10 this year Artsie

We’re gonna cheer for all of us today (right here)

 

Hello Artsie

I didn’t win for that best Artsie last year

I went thru a very bad phase

But now that I’m up for the best Artsie this year…

I hope those critics took the time

to RE-appraise

 

Hello Artsie

Well hello Artsie

 

Glad to see you Art

Looking glamorous, kicking up a fuss

At our theatre prom

EVERYTHING’S COMING UP ARTSIES

 

I had a dream

A dream about ME Artsie

It involved you too Artsie

I’m long overdue

Oh Artsie

 

I was swell

This year I’m gonna win – it’s my fate

 

Because I was the best

Sweetie

Everything’s coming up Atsie

 

Gotta pick out a dress

Oh geez look at my hair, it’s a mess

Gotta lose 20 pounds

This year everything’s coming up Artsie

 

Now it’s my turn

I can feel that it’s here

Oh how I yearn

We all know that this should be MY year

 

No one’s better than me

It’s like that part was written for me

If I don’t win tonight

Those critics I will fight

Like I said, I’m so long overdue

 

Richmond everything’s coming up Artsie

Please let this be true

 

Worked straight 10 years

I’m top dog it’s so clear

Each time I bow

Huge cheers ’cause I’ve got the know how

 

Now I’m here it’s tonight

And it feels like my Spanx are too tight.

When they call out my name

I’ll be glad that I came
