The oscars are a few hours away For some it'll be quite the day All dressed up in their favourite attire Ready to set the red carpet on fire It will be a starry affair Some will experiment with fashion and choose to dare Flashbulbs and interviews will be the order of the day While the sun shines the broadcasters will make hay The nominations are once again a white affair Makes everyone want to question and stare The nominees will all be here The crowd and the audience will cheer But in the end it is the winner who will give that speech and shed a tear When the winners' speeches get long The men with the violins start to play their song Later the victors will pose with their awards For the hard work they put in it will be for them deserving rewards Just wish for the awards to be filled with a little bit more diversity It would only strengthen everyone's belief in equality
