The Pitch (Spectacular, Spectacular)

Zidler:
Spectacular, Spectacular
No words in the vernacular
Can describe this great event
You'll be dumb with wonderment
Returns are fixed at ten percent
You must agree, that's excellent
And on top of your fee

All:
You'll be involved artisticly....

Chorus:
So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years
So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years

Various:

Arabians!

India!

and courtesans!

Acrobats!

and juggling bears!

So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting

So exciting

So delighting
It will run for fifty... years....

Spectacular, Spectacular
No words in the vernacular
Can describe this great event
You'll be dumb with wonderment

The hills are alive, with the sound of music

So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years
So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years

Duke:
"Yes, but what happens in the end?"

Christian: *cough*
The courtesan and sitarman
are pulled apart by an evil plan

Satine:
But in the end she hears his song

Christian:
And they're love is just too strong...

Duke:
It's a little bit funny
this feeling inside

All:
So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years

Christian:
The sitar plays secret song
helps defeat the evil one
Though the tower of thrills and riddles
but it's all to no avail.

Zidler:
I am the evil maharaja
You will not bestow me

Satine:
Oh Harold, no one could play him like you could!

Zidler:
No one's going to.

All:
So exciting
Will make them laugh, will make them cry
So delighting

Duke:
"And in the end should someone die?"

All:
So exciting
The audience will stop and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty... years...

Duke:
Generally I like it.
