Make 'Em Laugh (Falli ridere) una canzone tratta dal musical Cantando sotto la pioggia e presente nell'episodio La supplente, il settimo della Seconda Stagione.
Will prende la febbre e sogna di essere guarito completamente e finalmente di ritornare a scuola in perfetta salute. In auditorium sorprende Mike e improvvisano una balletto simile a quello del film, cantato da lui. Alla fine della performance si sente la sveglia e Will finalmente torna al mondo reale.
Will:
Though the world is so full of a number things
I know we should all be as happy as
But are we?
No, definitely no, positively no
Decidedly no. Mm mm
Short people have long faces and
Long people have short faces
Big people have little humor
And little people have no humor at all!
And in the words of that immortal God
Samuel J. Snodgrass, as he was about to be lead
To the guillotine
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh? (Ha ha!)
My dad said "Be an actor, my son but be a comical one,
they'll be standing in lines for those old honky tonk monkeyshines"
Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite
And you can charm the critics and have nothin' to eat
Just slip on a banana peel
The world's at your feet
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em...
Make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh
My grandpa said "Go out and tell 'em a joke but give it plenty of hoke"
Make 'em roar
Make 'em scream
Take a fall
But a wall
Split a seam
You start off by pretending
You're a dancer with grace
You wiggle 'till they're
Giggling all over the place
And then you get a great big custard pie in the face
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh?
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ah ha ha ha ha ha
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Make 'em laugh, ah ah!
Make 'em laugh, ah ah!
Make 'em laugh, ah ah!
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh!
Curiosità[]
Nella performance era previsto un salto alla parete. Questo preoccupava i due attori ancora al giorno delle riprese.
