Cabaret _Liza Minnelli (Live) - Miss Congeniality
What good is sitting alone in your room
Come hear the music play
Life is a cabaret, old chum
So 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
And listen to the band
Come blow your horn
Start celebrating right this way
Your table's waiting
What good's permitting some prophet of gloom
To wipe every smile away
I'll tell you 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
Just scream, come to think about it
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 by yourself in your room
You speak English
Come hear the music play
Oh 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 what, a cabaret, old chum
And I love a cabaret
