Peter Allen (10 February 1944 – 18 June 1992) was an Australian songwriter and entertainer. His songs were made popular by many recording artists, including Elkie Brooks, Melissa Manchester and Olivia Newton-John, with one, "Arthur's Theme", winning an Academy Award in 1981. In addition to recording many albums, he enjoyed a cabaret and concert career, including appearing at Radio City Music Hall riding a camel. His marriage to Liza Minnelli ended in divorce, and culminated his heterosexual guise. He subsequently proclaimed his homosexuality and publicly entered a relationship with Gregory Connell that lasted until Connell's death, 15 years later. more »

Quiet please, there's a lady on stage
She may not be the latest rage
But she's singing and she means it
And she deserves a little silence

Quiet please, there's a woman up there
And she's been honest through her songs
Long before your consciousness was raised
Now doesn't that deserve a little praise

So put your hands together and help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Stand for the ovation
And give her one last celebration

Quiet please, there's a person up there
Who's singing of the things
That none of us could bear to hear for ourselves
Give her your respect if nothing else

Put your hands together and help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Rise to the occasion
Give her one last celebration

Quiet please, there's a lady on stage
Conductor, turn the final page
When it's over we can all go home
She lives on, on the stage alone

So put your hands together, help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Stand for the ovation
And give her one last celebration

Put your hands together and help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Rise for the ovation
Give her one last celebration

Put your hands together, help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song

Put your hands together, help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Stand for the ovation
And won't you give her one last celebration?

Put your hands together and help her along
Let's just stay here all night and let's sing every song
Won't you rise to the occasion?
And won't you give her one last celebration?

Put your hands together, help her along
All that's left of the singer's all that's left of the song
Stand, stand for the ovation
Yes, give her one last, just one last celebration

Come on, put your hands together, won't you help her along?
Let's just stay here all night and sing every song
Won't you rise? Can you rise to the occasion?
And give her, a just one last, one last celebration?
