[max, spoken]
any poor fool can start an affair. but to end one… that takes style… finesse! that takes anatol.

[max]
he thought he would love with undying love
but now there is no denying
his undying love is dying
and the bloom is off the rose

he’ll buy her a new enchanting bijou
to make the break seem less cruel
the bloom will be on the jewel
when the bloom is off the rose

in a private room where they’ll consume
a feast fit for a czar
she’ll know no pain, she can’t complain
when her mouth is full of caviar

they’ll call it a day, the civilized way
together they’ll be decided
how happy they’ll be divided
when the bloom is off the rose
[ensemble]
when the bloom is off the rose

[max]
la*la, la*la

[ensemble]
and the fuzz is off the peach

[max]
la*la, la*la

[ensemble]
when the icing’s off the layer cake
and the white sand’s off the beach
give a parting party

[max]
make*believe no one knows!

[ensemble]
that the bloom is off the rose

[max, spoken]
oh, ludwig, when the lady leaves, she might be feeling a bit unhappy. i suggest you have a handkerchief ready.
[instrumental]

[max, spoken]
here, take mine.

[max]
in a private room with sprayed perfume
will spray away regret
she will not wear a mournful air
the only crêpe is crêpe suzette

the way it began is how it should end
not low on a sad goodbye note
but high on a festive high note
when the bloom is off the rose

[ensemble]
when the bloom is off the rose

[max]
do*do, do*do

[ensemble]
and the fuzz is off the peach

[max]
do*do, do*do, do*do
[ensemble]
when the icing’s off the layer cake
and the white sand’s off the beach

[max, spoken]
sing it!

[ensemble]
make it a show of shows
you can tell

[max]
your heart’s a bell

[ensemble]
it rings

[max]
a fond farewell

[ensemble]
the bloom is off the rose!
