The No 'No Shame Theatre Song' Song

music by Jonathan Price (who couldn't be here tonight)

lyrics by Jeff Goode

JEFF (a capella)
You know we start each show here
With the No Shame The'ter Song.
Jon plays the keys and someone sings
And you all sing along.

Tonight though something has gone
Very, very, very wrong.
Cuz Jon's not here and J.J.'s out
The pi'nists are all gone.

No Shame Theatre
Does not have a song.
No Shame Theatre
Something has gone wrong.

So Brian called up Scott McGee
And Scotty called up me.
But I pretended at my home
That I was not to be.

Then Brian called my cell phone and
Left messages on that.
And while I was deleting them.
I guess I called him back.

(ad lib awkward phone conversations with Brian about how I was not trying to avoid his calls, then...) So what's up?

BRIAN
No Shame Theatre
Has no song tonight!
No Shame Theatre
Can you make it right?
JEFF
So what I guess I'm saying is
I tried to pass the buck.
Know all your cell phone key codes, kids.
Or you too could be fucked.

And now I stand before you with
A song inside my heart.
And there it stays till someone plays
The damn piano part!

No Shame Theatre
(to Brian) I hope you're satisfied!
No Shame Theatre
No Shame Don't Mean No Pride!
