起承転結のはっきりしない曲ですが、病みつきになるほど好きでした。innuendoという言葉はここで覚えました。

しかし、久しぶりに歌詞を読み返しましたが、やっぱり・さっぱりです。何について歌ってるんでしょうかね⁉

"Where's The Orchestra?"

Where's the orchestra?
Wasn't this supposed to be a musical?
Here I am in the balcony
How the hell could I have missed the overture?
I like the scenery
Even though I have absolutely no
Idea at all
What is being said
Despite the dialogue
There's the leading man
The movie star who never faced an audience

Where's the orchestra?
After all
This is my big night on the town
My introduction to the theatre crowd
I assumed that the show would have a song
So I was wrong
At least I understand
All the innuendo and the irony
And I appreciate
The roles the actors played
The point the author made
And after the closing lines
And after the curtain calls
The curtain falls
On empty chairs
Where's the orchestra?
