“Musical Theatre Boys” is a spoof off of the fact that many guys who do theatre are gay. It has an upbeat tempo, with a lot of references to musicals from throughout the years. It also mentions some stereotypical facts about gays and musical It also references a lot of the main male characters from...
[Verse 1: Girl 1 (Girl 2) ((Girl 1 & 2))]
When I was a little girl
I went to lots of shows
(I thrilled when Fannie met Nicki Arnstein
and Harold Hill sang) "Lida) ((Rose"))
so I became a theatre geek
(took singing and dancing lessons three times a week)
((and when I got cast in my first show
my heart was all aglow))
[Pre Chorus: Girl 1 (Girl 2) (Girl 1 & 2)]
But where was my Sky Masterson?
(Where was my Lancelot?)
((Where the heck was my Emile Debeque?
It seems like all I've got was
musical theatre boys
musical theatre boys
musical theatre boys))
[Verse 2: Girl 1 (Girl 2) ((Girl 1 & 2))]
Musical theatre boys
Are mostly gay
(They're not all gay)
But they're pretty much gay
And that's ok
But I wanna boy
((Who will take my breath away))
[Verse 3: Girl 1]
Someone like Captain von Trapp
not someone better than me
at both ballet and tap
but I'm surrounded by
musical theatre boys
[Verse 4: Girl 1 (Girl 2) ((Girl 2 & 1))]
(Musical theatre boys
aren't into sports
they'd rather cheer for Stephen Schwartz)
It takes all sorts
(But I wanna boy)
((Who won't steal my booty shorts))
[Verse 5: Girl 2]
Someone like Jean Valjean
not someone who wants to put my makeup on
but I'm surrounded by
musical theatre boys
[Bridge: Girl 1 (Girl 2) ((Girl 1 & 2))]
Why are they all shorter than me?
(And more into Cole Porter than me?)
((Won't they ever learn
that I'll never yearn
for a boy who's ever sung
even secretly to himself
"Rose's Turn"
"I Had a Dream" but-))
[Verse 7: ((Girl 1 & 2))
((musical theatre boys
are all I've got
and that's just fine
wait, no it's not
on second thought
I wanna boy
who's profile picture isn't his headshot))
[Verse 8: ((Girl 1 & 2))
((I guess when it comes down to it
I don't wanna duet I just wanna do it!
But not with a
musical theatre boy))
[Coda: Girl 1 (Girl 2) ((Girl 1 & 2))]
I'm surrounded by
(confounded by)
((my loneliness is compounded by
musical theatre boys))
