cabaret - cabaret/soundtrack version - liza minnelli lyrics

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
so come to the cabaret
come taste the wine
come hear the band
come blow your h-rn
start celebrating right this way
your table’s waiting
what good’s permitting 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 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 too much pills and liquor”
but when 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 remember how she’d turn to me and say
“what good is sitting all alone in your room?
come hear the music play
life is a cabaret, old chum
come to the cabaret
and as for me
and as for me
i made my mind up, back in chelsea
when i go, i’m going like elsie
start by admitting from cradle to tomb
isn’t that long a stay
life is a cabaret, old chum
it’s only a cabaret, old chum
and i love a cabaret
