paroles de chanson Cabaret - Edurne

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 Cabaret, old chum
Come to the Cabaret
Come taste the wine
Come hear the band
Come blow your horn
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 a 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'd remember how'd she turn to me and say
"What good is sitting 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 up my mind back in Chelsea
When I go, I'm going like Elsie

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 Cabaret
