Play your part
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here are your lines,
Now stick to the page
Like the wise man said, "all the world's a stage"
And don't forget, you have a role to play
You can't improvise
You can never stray
Play your part
You'll go far I can see it now
Play your part
And never stray
Play your part
One of these star we can show you how it goes
Everyones knows
You can't stop the show
It's a treacherous business
It's hard to make a buck
If you don't like how the story ends, you may be out of luck
'Cause the writer's left the building
The script has been approved
You know who's gonna win this,
and who's gonna lose
Play your part
You'll go far I can see it now
Play your part
And never stray
Play your part
One of these star we can show you how
Play your part
And never stray
Play your part
You'll go far I can see it now
Play your part
And never stray
Play your part
One of these star we can show you how it goes
Everyone knows
You can't stop the show
