The King of Broadway - Nathan Lane/The Producers Orchestra[00:00:00]
I used to be the king the king of old Broadway[00:00:05]
The best of ev'rything was mine to have each day[00:00:12]
I always had the biggest hits[00:00:21]
The biggest bathrooms at the Ritz[00:00:24]
My showgirls had the biggest tits [00:00:26]
I never was the pits in any way [00:00:28]
We believe you thousands wouldn't[00:00:31]
We believe you ev'ry word[00:00:33]
We believe you thousands couldn't[00:00:36]
We believe each word we've heard[00:00:39]
I used to be the king [00:00:47]
The King [00:00:50]
The king of old Broadway [00:00:51]
It's good to be the king [00:00:54]
My praises they would sing[00:00:55]
A Ziegfeld so they'd say[00:00:59]
My shows were always filled with class[00:01:05]
The best champagnes would fill my glass[00:01:08]
My lap was filled with gorgeous ass[00:01:10]
You couldn't call me crass in any way [00:01:12]
We believe you thousands wouldn't[00:01:14]
We believe you ev'ry word[00:01:17]
We believe you thousands couldn't[00:01:20]
We believe each word we've heard[00:01:23]
There was a time[00:01:25]
When I was young and gay [00:01:27]
But straight[00:01:30]
There was a time[00:01:31]
When I was bold[00:01:33]
There was a time[00:01:37]
When each and ev'ry play I touched[00:01:39]
Would turn to gold[00:01:45]
There was a time[00:01:50]
He wore the finest clothes[00:01:52]
His shoes were always new[00:01:55]
Ahh [00:02:00]
Now I wear a rented tux[00:02:03]
That's two weeks overdue [00:02:08]
Poor Bialy what a shmoozer[00:02:14]
Poor Bialy what a shame[00:02:16]
Poor Bialy what a loser[00:02:19]
Poor Bialy goodbye fame[00:02:22]
Such reviews How dare they insult me in this manner [00:02:25]
How quickly they forget I am Max Bialystock [00:02:29]
The first producer ever to do summer stock in the winter [00:02:33]
Once he was the king [00:02:36]
You've heard of Theatre in the Round [00:02:38]
You're looking at the man who invented Theatre in the Square [00:02:41]
Nobody had a good seat [00:02:44]
King of old Broadway[00:02:46]
I've spent my entire life in the theater [00:02:48]
I was a protege of the great Boris Tomaschevski [00:02:51]
Yes He taught me everything I know [00:02:56]
I'll never forget he turned to me on his deathbed and said [00:02:59]
"Maxella alle menschen muss zu machen jeden tug a gentzen kachen "[00:03:06]
What does that mean [00:03:12]
Who knows I don't speak Yiddish Strangely enough neither did he [00:03:14]
But in my heart I knew what he was saying [00:03:19]
He was saying when you're down and out and everybody thinks you're finished [00:03:22]
That's the time to stand up on your two feet and shout [00:03:26]
"Who do you have to f**k to get a break in this town "[00:03:30]
Yay [00:03:33]
I used to be the king[00:04:06]
The king of old Broadway[00:04:08]
Again I will be king[00:04:11]
And be on top to stay[00:04:15]
There'll be gala opening nights again[00:04:18]
You'll see my name in lights again[00:04:24]
I'll go from dark to brights again[00:04:26]
My spirits high as kites again[00:04:29]
I'll never suffer slights again[00:04:31]
I'll taste those sweet delights again[00:04:32]
No plethora of plights again[00:04:34]
No blossoming of blights again[00:04:35]
No frantic fits or frights again[00:04:36]
Fame is in my sights again[00:04:38]
I'll take those fancy flights again[00:04:40]
I'm gonna scare the heights again[00:04:41]
Bialystock will never drop[00:04:44]
Bialystock will never stop [00:04:48]
Bialystock will be on top again[00:04:52]
Fame is in his sights again[00:04:58]
He'll take those fancy flights again[00:04:59]
He's gonna scale the heights again[00:05:01]
