As the world watches
It’s time for a party
A celebration
Designers’ fashion
Glittering skin
Pearly smiles
As the world watches
It’s time for a match
Equal to equal
High profile to higher
Foot to foot
Goal to goal
As the world watches
It’s time for a song
From strapless to thong
No wrapping it wrong
One day stop and gone
As the world watches
It’s time for that time
Where we discuss the sublime
Give it worth a dime
Who cares who will die?
As the world watches
It’s time for the news
Sorrowful and morose
Like what’s the use
But there’s more behind the green screen views
As the world watches
We needed the world to watch
Remove the gag stuffed in the mouth
Speak loud enough to reverberate
To the other side of the globe
But while the world just watches
Other eyes, somewhere in sky, also watch
And count count count
