Old year
Old show
About to fold
The single was a truly dismal flop
It's been remaindered in a discount shop
As a joke we're going to spray it gold
That's the kind of year we had
New Year
New Show
New Fantasy
We play the Rainbow there are screaming scenes
We're sewing diamonds on our denim jeans
There's an Authorised Biography
That's the kind of year we'll have
Won't we?
Welcome to the
Follies of '77
Do you get the feeling
We have only changed the name
Welcome to the
Follies of '77
The fantasies are different
But the formula's the same
You know
Nothing really changes
Nothing really changes
Nothing really changes
In the Follies
Same hopes
Same jokes
Same numbers done
The people have hysterics while we sing
Some comic's pulling faces from the wings
We stay bright and show our sense of fun
That's the kind of pro's we are
We're all on our toes we are
Tho' we're down - God knows we are
We're on speed and slows we are
Stay cool
Stay right
Stay put
Stay bright
Everything's gonna be alright
Isn't it? Welcome to the
Follies of '77
Do you get the feeling
We have only changed the name
Welcome to the
Follies of '77
The fantasies are different
But the formula's the same
You know
Nothing really changes
Nothing really changes
Nothing really changes
In the Follies
