[houdini]
i’m buried alive
i hang by a thread
and people pay money
to see if i’m dead
like mama once said
“that’s the showbiz”

[evelyn]
i’m packin’ ’em in
from summer to fall
come may and i’m playin’
a half-empty hall
well, you said it all

[both]
that’s the showbiz

[evelyn]
it’s sad

[houdini]
it’s strange

[both]
times change and change and change

[houdini]
and still i’m on top

[evelyn]
i’m third on the bill

[houdini]
i’m ready to stop

[evelyn]
i’m nervous, i will

[both]
and both of us still
in showbiz

[houdini]
i’m out on a ledge
wrapped up in a chain
and starting to think
as it’s starting to rain
my life is insane

[evelyn]
that’s the showbiz
my partner’s a dud
my gown doesn’t fit
the band is demanding
a grand, or they’ll quit
my lawyer does sh-t

[houdini]
that’s the showbiz

[both]
it’s sad
it’s strange
times change and change and change

[houdini]
i’m losing my hair

[evelyn]
i’m losing my voice

[houdini]
i’m using a chair

[evelyn]
i lost the rolls royce

[both]
but what other choice
than showbiz

[houdini]
i’m only a sham
well, that’s my appeal
the people need sham
cause the world is too real

[evelyn]
i know how they feel
i sit and reflect
up there on my swing
stenography lessons
might just be the thing
i wish i could sing

[houdini]
a hundred years from now, the name houdini will be gone and forgotten. and it wasn’t even my real name!

and mama is gone

[evelyn]
my stanny was shot

[houdini]
but we carry on

[evelyn]
for like it or not

[both]
we’re lucky we’ve got
the showbiz
where if you are down

[houdini]
or dead on your feet

[evelyn]
or hear from some elderly dear
on the street
that you’re obsolete

[both]
that’s ok
cause sad or strange
there’s one thing that will never change-

[houdini]
like mama would say

[both]
that’s the showbiz
the showbiz
the showbiz
