The casts of KINKY BOOTS, PIPPIN, MATILDA and many more shows and entertainers joined host Neil Patrick Harris on last night's broadcast of the 67th Annual Tony Awards on CBS. Below, we bring you the lyrics to his closing number with Audra McDonald!
Aw, SH-I can't help myself.
Here's a Tony hit list, try to write em all down.
First we started bigger than a Cinderella ball gown.
Shout out to the ladies, all the women winnin'!
Andrea Martin, Diane Paulus, Pam MacKinnon.
Heavenly, now I need a melody. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome in Audra McD!
New York, singing all the lyrics we made up,
there's nothing we can't do.
Broadway in New York,
these Tony winners are brand new,
their work will inspire you.
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York
Neil: This was Tony Sunday all up in your face.
Bill Porter's gonna keep the Tony at his place.
Then at nine O'clock you changed to watch the games.
The nerds, Game of Thrones. The jocks, LeBron James.
Now you're watching Audra, singing to her own flow.
Audra's got so many Tonys she could host her own show.
Courteny Vance, Tracy Letts, Judith Light, hit it.
Edward Albee, Pippin, and Patina Miller did it.
Cicely Tyson, standing ovation.
Kinky for the win and the eyes of the nation are on:
Audra: New York, singing all these lyrics we made up.
There's nothing we can't do.
Tonys and New York,
one more Broadway season behind you,
these shows will remind you.
It happens in New York
Both Singing: In New York, New York, New York.
Neil: That's the Tonys! Good night everybody, go see a Broadway show.
