WHY IS NO ONE GUESSING THESE: If it’s said / you are dead / you will get the worst reviews you ever read! The Producers! I can’t quite remember if this is the correct name of the song, but it’s certainly the chorus: It’s Bad Luck to Say Good Luck on Opening Night. Or is it, Opening Night? I’m crying in the hoosegow / you’re in Rio getting laid! From the Producers, too! BETRAYED.
