Ode to Hilton

The Dark Poet continues his homages to our ladies of the Theatre ...


Drama Queen

You can teach, you can judge, having the time of your life
See that play, watch that scene, she digs it the Drama Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the pathos and flow
Hoping they play the right person, getting in the swing
You come in to look for someone playing a King
Not everyone could play that guy
But the cast is young and the adrenalineÂ’s high
With a bit of direction, you feel itÂ’ll be fine
This time theyÂ’re in the nude as they prance
And itÂ’s five more points for young Lance

You are the Drama Queen, serious and appraising, really keen
Drama Queen, feel the heat from the cast and team
You can teach, you can judge, having the time of your life
See that play, watch that scene, she digÂ’s it the Drama Queen

YouÂ’re an adjudicator, you could tell em whatÂ’s wrong
Leave them burning when youÂ’re gone
Looking out for another, any nomination will do
This time theyÂ’re not nude as they prance
So thereÂ’s no extra points for young Lance

You are the Drama Queen, serious and appraising, really keen
Drama Queen, impervious to the heat of the cast and team
You can MC, you can judge, ignoring the stuff-ups and strife
See that play, watch that scene, she digs it the Drama Queen
