Lyrics
Limelight
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.
From the Kid to the Gold Rush
You can see the Modern Times
From the Rink to the Pay Day
You can see the City Lights
From the Count to the Circus
I'm still here behind the screen
One a.m. at the pawnshop
I'm the champion in your dream
Gotta get to England
Someday I'll get even
Washington's a boys' club cabaret
Cinematic treason
If Hollywood's a kingdom
Jesters get their justice either way
In the park, I get shanghaied
In a prehistoric past
I get caught in the limelight.
So bring on the laughing gas
Take a shot at the keystones
take the squareheads to the queen
Water cures for McCarthy
Talking pictures, silent scenes
