[00:50.991]FATHER: No!
[00:52.040]There's one God we've missed
[01:01.308]To the God of Broadway Musicals
[01:08.223]And the hope that dreams come true
[01:13.785]From the God of Broadway Musicals
[01:19.108]To the New York Times review
[01:24.155]I believe our Lester's got that thing
[01:28.950]That'll make Long Island stop and sing
[01:33.724]When your hope is gone on the losing streak
[01:38.258]Call the God who's on 8 shows a week
[01:42.524]MOTHER: If the God of Broadway Musicals
[01:46.502]Has a heart or answers prayers
[01:50.493]There's a Rodgers and a Hammerstein
[01:54.496]Writing standards right upstairs
[01:58.481]LISI: He'll be famous here and overseas
[02:02.216]FATHER: While his agent counts the royalties

[02:13.901]JIMMY: As the God of Broadway musicals
[02:17.610]We expect a little glitz
[02:21.352]FATHER: Every season there's a show or two
[02:25.064]Join the pantheon of hits
[02:28.784]LISI: You'll decide what flops and what’s divine
[02:32.514]MOTHER: What they'll hail the next “A Chorus Line”
[02:35.975]FATHER: If you are a God
[02:37.848]Let the spotlight burn
[02:39.705]ALL: ‘Cause tonight is Uncle Lester’s turn
[02:43.427]To the God of Broadway Musicals
[02:47.164]Though it may be premature
[02:50.881]Let the audience be large enough
[02:54.333]For a first-class national tour (First-class tour)
[02:58.049]There are well-known Gods or avant-garde
[03:01.526]There are some who went to Julliard
[03:04.997]But the one we want, and we all agree
[03:08.725]Is the God who reads Variety
[03:13.508]Everyone reads Variety
[03:18.060]ALL: So the God of Broadway Musicals
[03:23.370]Knows the future, cursed or blessed
[03:28.450]We beseech you, God of Musicals
[03:33.494]With a singular request
[03:38.011]Uncle Lester wrote the perfect song
[03:41.202]Made the backers cry and hum along
[03:44.644]All we have is one more simple thing to say:
[03:51.022]Give him dancing girls and color lights
[03:55.023]Give him acrobats and dogs in tights
[03:58.218]Giant orchestras and singing trees
[04:01.948]JIMMY: Give him magic tricks and Twizzlers please?
[04:06.948]ALL: Put his musical on Broadway!
