Lyrics
When we were young and trod the boards
Our cardboard lyres played silver chords
And flowers were flung.
We gave our all each matinee
And never named the Scottish play
When we were young.
When I played St. Joan
Their minds were "blown"
And yours too
It was for my tone that I was known.
All too true.
We sported hats with six foot plumes
And wore no green in dressing rooms
We flew
We swung
Princes came to see me as Ophelia
Me too.
I made Portia mine
You said each line right on cue
We bounced about with cardboard swords
When we were young and trod the boards
We trod the boards, luvvy.
