The whole world’s a stage

 

The whole world’s a stage.

And on that stage there is violent drama.

Come see the action.

 

A dramatic setting of blood and death.

Of betrayal, of loyalty.

Of heroism and of bravery.

The drama of war.

 

---------------------------------------

The whole world’s a stage.

And on that stage there is beautiful drama.

The drama of passion.

 

A dramatic setting of passion and compassion.

Of concern, of affection.

Of friendship and of giving.

The drama of love.

 

You’ll be mesmerized by what you see.

Come see the action;

‘its life’.

The whole world is a stage
