文本歌词

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 that knitting the book and the broom
Time for a holiday
Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret
Come taste the wine come taste the wine
Come hear that band come hear that band
Come blow your heart night celebrating
Let me right your table's waiting
No use permitting a prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret
I used to have a girlfriend
Known as elsie
With whom i shared
Four sordid rooms in chelsea
She wasn't what you'd call
A blushing flower
As a matter of fact
She rented by the hour
The day she died the neighbors
Came to snicker
Well that's what comes
From to much pills and liquor
But then i saw her laid out like a queen
She was the happiest corpse
I'd ever seen
I think of elsie to this very day
I'd remember when she 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
Come taste the wine
Come hear the band
Come blow your horn
Start celebrating
Right this way
Your table's waiting
No use permitting
Soem prophet of doom
Eager the loud play
Life is a cabaret old chum
Life is a cabaret old chum
And only a cabaret
