Based on a true story.

lyrics

This could be my breakout role
My first-class ticket out of this hole

When you made your reservation
You didn't realize
History was being made
Before your very eyes

This could be my breakout role
My first-class ticket out of this hole

My name is Gregory
Shall we start with some drinks?
You can count on me, Sir
With smile and a wink

Pitcher of water at your elbow... again
Is everything tasting delicious? I ask you... again
Interrupting your conversation to check on things... again
Gauging your reaction of satisfaction... my friend

In my white shirt and black bow tie
Sleeves rolled up to the elbow
My flawless diction
My hair perfectly coiffed
Superb in my humility
Superb in my humility!

This could be my breakout role
My first-class ticket out of this hole

My name is Gregory
Shall we start with some drinks?
You can count on me, Ma'am
With smile and a wink

My name is Gregory
Your new best friend
You can tell me anything
I'm with you to the end

Pitcher of water at your elbow... again
Is everything tasting delicious? I ask you... again
Interrupting your conversation to check on things... again
Gauging your reaction of satisfaction... my friend

Perhaps one day
Broadway, MacBeth
Leave my adoring fans
Gasping for breath

A mountain of roses
Landing at my feet
Standing ovation
And my victory is complete

I'm Gregory The Magnificent Waiter

I have infiltrated the wait staff
Now the place is mine
I float across the floor
All eyes are on me as they dine

Graciously I endure
With deportment so divine
My delivery impeccable
As I pour the glass of wine

That guy in the sport coat
Is he on to me?
Where did he get that tie?
Can't he see?

Ill be all the more obsequious
They'll fall for me delirious
They condescend and order large
But I'm Gregory and I'm in charge

Pitcher of water at your elbow... again
Is everything tasting delicious? I ask you... again

I'm Gregory The Magnificent Waiter
