Lyrics Betrayed - Nathan Lane
Mail
call!
Here
ya
go,
Bialystock,
ya
got
a
postcard.
A
postcard?
From
where?
Brazil.
Brazil?
Who
do
I
know
in
Brazil?
Dear
Max,
Rio
is
everything
you
said
it
was
and
more.
Ulla
and
I
think
of
you
Every
chance
we
get.
In
the
morning,
when
we
have
breakfast
on
our
terrace,
Many
different
herrings.
And
in
the
evening,
when
we
samba
together
in
the
moonlight.
Sorry,
must
run.
Ulla's
waiting,
it's
almost
eleven.
Wish
you
were
here,
Leo
Just
like
Cain
and
Abel
You
pulled
a
sneak
attack
I
thought
that
we
were
brothers
Then
you
stabbed
me
in
the
back
Betrayed!
Oh
boy,
I'm
so
betrayed!
Like
Samson
and
Delilah
Your
love
began
to
fade
I'm
crying
in
the
hoosegow
You're
in
Rio
getting
laid!
Betrayed!
Let's
face
it,
I'm
betrayed!
Boy,
have
I
been
taken
Oy,
I'm
so
forsaken
I
should
have
seen
what
came
to
pass
I
should
have
known
to
watch
my
ass!
I
feel
like
Othello
Everything
is
lost
Leo
is
Iago
Max
is
double-crossed!
I'm
so
dismayed
Did
I
mention
I'm
betrayed?
I
used
to
be
the
king
But
now
I
am
the
fool
A
captain
without
a
ship
A
rabbi
without
a
shul!
Now
I'm
about
to
go
to
jail
There's
no
one
who
will
pay
my
bail
I
have
no
one
who
I
can
cry
to
No
one
I
can
say
goodbye
to
I'm
drowning!
I'm
drowning
here!
I'm
going
down
for
the
last
time.
I-I-I
see
my
whole
life
flashing
before
my
eyes.
I
see
a
weathered
old
Farmhouse
with
a
white
picket
fence.
I'm
running
through
fields
of
Alfalfa
with
my
collie,
Rex.
Stop
it,
Rex!
I
see
my
mother
standing
On
the
back
porch,
in
a
worn
but
clean
gingham
gown,
and
I
hear
her
Calling
out
to
me,
"Alvin!
Don't
forget
your
chores.
The
wood
needs
A-cordin
and
the
cows
need
a-milkin'.
Alvin,
Alvin..."
Wait
a
minute!
My
name's
not
Alvin!
That's
not
my
life.
I'm
not
a
hillbilly.
I
grew
up
in
the
Bronx.
Leo's
taken
everything.
Even
my
past!
My
past's
a
dying
ember
But
wait...
now
I
remember
How
did
it
begin?
He
walked
into
my
office
With
his
cockamamie
scheme
You
can
make
more
money
With
a
flop
than
with
a
hit
"We
can
do
it,
we
can
do
it"
"I
can't
do
it"
"We
can
do
it!"
"I
can't
do
it!"
Goodbye
Max!
Lord,
I
want
that
money!
I'm
back,
Max!
"Come
on,
Leo,
we
can
do
it!"
Step
one,
find
the
play!
See
it,
swirl
it,
touch
it,
kiss
it!
Hello,
Mister
Liebkind
"Guten
Tag,
hop
clop
"Guten
Tag,
hop
clop"
Adolf
Elizabeth
Hitler?
"Guten
Tag,
hop
clop
"Guten
Tag,
hop
clop!"
Step
two,
hire
the
director
"Keep
it
gay,
keep
it
gay,
keep
it..."
Two-three,
kick,
turn,
turn,
turn,
kick,
turn
Ulla!
Oooh
wah
wah
woo-woo-
wah-wah
Step
three,
raise
the
money
"Along
came
Bialy!"
Intermission!
Step
four,
hire
all
the
actors
"A
wandering
minstrel
I,
A
think
of
shreds
and...
Next!
The
little
wooden
boy
Next!
That's
our
Hitler!
"Opening
night!"
Good
luck,
good
luck,
good
luck
Break
a
leg!
I
broke
my
leg!
"Springtime
for
Hitler
and
Germany!"
A
surprise
smash!
"Springtime
for
Hitler
and
Germany!
It'll
run
for
years!
"Where
did
we
go
right?
Where
did
we
go
right?"
Gimme
those
books
Fat,
fat,
fatty!
Gimme
those
books
Books,
fat
Books,
fat
Books,
fat
Books,
fat!
Lousy
fruit
Kill
the
actors
You
ever
eat
with
one?!
Then
you
ran
to
Rio
And
you're
safely
out
of
reach
I'm
behind
these
bars
You're
banging
Ulla
on
the
beach!
Just
like
Julius
Caesar
Was
betrayed
by
Brutus
Who'd
think
an
accountant
Would
turn
out
to
be
my
Judas!
I'm
so
dismayed
Is
this
how
I'm
repaid?
To
be...
Betrayed!
BETRAYED!!
