Susan Boyle
She came to audition
Jolly good venture
Frumpish, plumpish Scottish
And Simon rolled his eyes
The lights then changed
Sounds re-arranged
All judges were SURPRISED.
Where was the cool?
Not showing.
Some giggles fore and aft
But as she made the song take wings.
Nobody laughed. Nobody laughed.
And now with the
Right presentation, wardrobe
Arrangements, promotion
Writing and composing.
Coupled with knockout musicians.
She is a Masterpiece. Worldwide.
Sincere little spinster woman.
Coming out of an isolated village.
Expressing overwhelming love
And belonging.
Listen to the Music of the Night.
(Phantom of the Opera).
