Cabaret
(专辑: Dee Does Broadway - 2010)
What good is sitting alone in your room? Come hear the
music play. Life is a
cabaret, old chum, Come to the
cabaret. Put down the
knitting, The
book and the
broom. It's time for a
holiday. Life is a
cabaret, old chum, Come to the
cabaret. Come taste the
wine, Come hear the
band, Come blow your horn, Start celebrating; Right this way, Your table's waiting What good admitting some prophet of doom? To wipe every smile away. Life is a
cabaret, old chum, So come to the
cabaret! I
used to have this roommate Known as Kelsey With whom I
shared Four sordid rooms in Chelsea. He wasn't what you'd call A
blushing flower As a
matter of fact He rented by the
hour. The
day he died the
neighbors Came to snicker: "Well, that's what comes From too much pills and liquor." But when I
saw him laid out like a
queen He was the
happiest corpse I'd ever seen. I
think of Kelsey to this very day. I'd remember how'd he turn to me and say: "What good is sitting alone in your room? Come hear the
music play. Life is a
cabaret, old chum, Come to the
cabaret." And as for me, as for me I
made my mind up back in Chelsea, When I
go, I
ain't going like Kelsey. Start by admitting From cradle to tomb It isn't that long a
stay. Life is a
cabaret, old chum, Only a
cabaret, old chum, And I
love a
cabaret!
