lisa stokke - cabaret lyrics

[verse]
what good is sitting alone in your room?
come hear the music play
life is a cabaret, old chum
come to the cabaret

[chorus]
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

[verse]
come taste the wine
come hear the band
come blow your h+rn, start celebrating
right this way, your table’s waiting

[verse]
what good’s permitting some prophet of doom
to wipe every smile away?
life is a cabaret, old chum
so come to the cabaret

[verse]
i used to havе this girlfriend known as elsie
with whom i shared four solid rooms in chеlsea
she wasn’t what you’d call a blushing flower
as a matter of fact she rented by the hour
[verse]
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

[bridge]
what good is sitting all alone in your room?
come hear the music play
life is a cabaret, old chum
come to the cabaret

[chorus]
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

[verse]
and as for me
and as for me
i made my mind up back in chelsea
when i go
i’m going like elsie
[verse]
start by admitting from cradle to tomb
it isn’t that long a stay
life is a cabaret, old chum
it’s only a cabaret, old chum
and i love a ca+ba+ret
