There was a full moon in the sky
We met a brand new robot friend
At first, he seemed a little shy
He would not play pretend...
He sang just fine and played in time
but did not look the part
So we lovingly decided to give him
A brand new start
NO MATTER WHAT WE SAY OR DO
IT' NEVER UP TO ME OR YOU
WE SMILE NOW AND SING A CHEER!
THE SHOW MUST GO ON,
THE SHOW MUST GO ON
NEVER FEAR...
THE SHOW
WILL
GO
ON
We removed his squishy casing
To keep and circuits safe and sound
And ended up replacing it
But, what a shame! (a crying shame!)
Our friend was in a world of pain
Oh, we tried to fix him up
But it was all in vain...
NO MATTER WHAT WE SAY OR DO
IT' NEVER UP TO ME OR YOU
WE SMILE NOW AND SING A CHEER!
THE SHOW MUST GO ON,
THE SHOW MUST GO ON
NEVER FEAR...
THE SHOW
WILL
GO
ON
We just don't know what went wrong
We tried to get along...
But our new robot friend's
power faded...
We did our best to fix our guest
We hated to see him so distressed
We said fairwell and had him
terminated
Every toy eventually break
Every battery fades and drains
Even the tiniest little mistakes
can leave behind the messiest stains
We know that we'll be all right
Although he didn't Survive the Night
Throught the pain and throught the tears
The show go on for years and years
NO MATTER WHAT WE SAY OR DO
IT' NEVER UP TO ME OR YOU
WE SMILE NOW AND SING A CHEER!
THE SHOW MUST GO ON,
THE SHOW MUST GO ON
NEVER FEAR...
THE SHOW
WILL
GO
ON
