Limelight

From the Kid to the Gold Rush

You can see the Modern Times

From the Rink to the Pay Day

You can see the City Lights

From the Count to the Circus

Some still here behind the screen

One a m at the pawnshop

I'm the champion in your dream

Gotta get to England

Someday I'll get even

Washington's a boys' club cabaret

Cinematic treason

If Hollywood's a kingdom

Jesters get their justice either way

In the park I get shanghaied

In a prehistoric past

I get caught in the limelight

So bring on the laughing gas

Take a shot at the keystones

Take the squareheads to the queen

Water cures for McCarthy

Talking pictures silent scenes

Gotta get to England

Someday I'll get even

Washington's a boys' club cabaret

Cinematic treason

If Hollywood's a kingdom

Jesters get their justice either way

Gotta get to England

Someday I'll get even

Washington's a boys' club cabaret

Cinematic treason

If Hollywood's a kingdom

Jesters get their justice either way
