When the girls come out
In red fishnet stockings
A motley drill team
Of mismatched legs
The curtain call
Brings forth their dim-lit days
In a room painted black
Three high kicks
One forced curtsy
The stage unfolds
Under theater lights
Playbill perfection
From February frost
To searing melted nights
Working girls in tights
Another season begins
In candy apple madness
Dancing girls all in a row
Ready……. go!
Spotlights burn down upon
Their undulating steps
