We Open In Venice

We Open In Venice - Harold Lang/Patricia Morison/Lisa Kirk/Alfred Drake

A troupe of strolling players are we

Not stars like LB Mayer's are we

But just a simple band

Who roams about the land

Dispensing fol de rol frivolity

Mere folk who give distraction are we

No Theater Guild aspection are we

But just a crazy group

That never ceases to troop

Around the map of little Italy

We open in Venice

We next play Verona

Then on to Cremona

Lotsa laughs in Cremona

Our next jump is Parma

Then totally move in Venice

Then Mantua then Padua

Then we open again where

We open in Venice

We next play Verona

Then on to Cremona

Lotsa aboards in Cremona

Our next jump is Parma

That heartless tartless menace

Then Mantua then Padua

Then we open again where

We open in Venice

We next play Verona

Then on to Cremona

Lotsa doe in Cremona

Our next jump is Parma

That singy dingy menace

Then Mantua then Padua

Then we open again where

We open in Venice

We next play Verona

Then on to Cremona

Lotsa quail in Cremona

Our next jump is Parma

That heartless tartless menace

Then Mantua then Padua

Then we open again where

In Venice
