A Big Black Lady Stops The Show Lyrics

hey hey old man it's time for you to shut up!

who the hell are you?

Honey, don't you know what time it is? Check your watch, take your bow and get the hell out. Hit it!

Now the show's wrapping up
You know what that means
No matter the plot the sets or the scenes
it's a broadway tradition
if the show needs some bling
for someone like me to come out and sing

(take it home kid)

Yeeeeeeaaaaahhhhhh
ha cha cha cha cha
Yes I have just one question
that i'll ask if I may
why the hell did they name it the great white way
cause if you want a hit
learn what Sondheim doesn't know
and let a big black lady stop the show

next the audience will stand
nobody ever dares walk out
when a big bold mama starts to wail and shout
if your something something
and your ticket sales are slow
let a big black lady stop the show

(Conversation)

you know the show is almost over
seems your star has up and died
he sure sounds like a ...
so white folks step aside

and you break out the organ
(more on its way...)
