Stephen Flaherty & Lynn aherns – The Glorious ones Lyrics
Artist: Stephen Flaherty & Lynn aherns
Song: The Glorious ones
Dear audience, let us take you now to our humble theater of the streets
Picture Venice in spring, feel the mist in the air
Picture Venice
There’s a crude little stage that’s been built in the square
In Venice
Actors call to the passersby
Scandalizing the nuns
And your spirits fly
As you hear the cry
We’re the glorious ones
Ciao, senori, e senorine
Welcome dear senori to our story
We’ll be playing all the parts
I am Flaminio Scala, our founder and lead actor
Slapstick and disaster from the master of the common works
In honor of all actors on earth and in Heaven
And their daughters and sons
Raucous comedy
Grand vulgarity
Tears and tragedy
All to do with me
And the glorious ones
At the age of sixteen, I found myself on the streets, living by my wits, looking for my life’s calling. and then, I found it
I saw misers and pretenders
Benders and buffoons
Ragged street performers dancing
wh#res with bosoms round as spoons
Musicians and their tunes
Overwhelming throngs of glorious humanity
Characters of every hue
And I knew
From that early age
I would make my mark upon the world
Improvise this comic world
I would put the world upon the stage
That’s insolence
Oratory
Unrequited love
Drama
In short, senori, the pride and the glory
Of my life
Hear our glorious tale of adversity and art
Be forewarned you may hear the occasional fart
With one hand on the crotch
And one hand on the heart
(?) banter
And pantomimes
Welcome!
Enjoy!
Ciao!
Come with me
See our show
Commedia
Flaminio Scala presents
The Glorious ones!
