Take a bow
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.
Lieutenant Brando, brave commando
We hardly know you rolling in one scene
Sheriff Charles, you're a marvel
You're better when you don't do anything
If you have a bell let it ring
You're alive, you should sing
But the show's over for now
Take a bow
[Incomprehensible] hero, dear oh, dear oh
We liked you though you had to go away
Hey aunt Lily may sound silly
To try to wait, may come back someday
We won't say anything
We are ghosts, we just sing
But the show's over for now
Take a bow
If you have a bell let it ring
You're alive, you should sing
But the show's over for now
Take a bow
Christopher hears us, he used to fear us
Then decided, he dreamt us all alone
Here's a question for just a vision
Who's been singing all these ghostly songs?
If we learned anything
You should love, you should sing
But the show's over for now
Take a bow
If you have a bell let it ring
While you live you should sing
But the show's over for now
Take a bow
Yeah, the show's over for now
Take a bow
Oh, the show's over for now
Take a bow
