I'm inviting you to my vaudeville

"Oui encore" you say

"And on with the show"

Ladies gentlemen

Before I sing to you

The light that shines twice as bright

Burns half as long

Come let me entertain you all

Leave your troubles big and small

Life's a ball life's a ball

Hitch a ride on my crooked

Merry go round

Hear the clinking clanking sound

Of the song that I bring

Take my song take my hand

Never let me down

Like love let me down

Like love pushed me around

So long goodbye

I lost did try

This is the last song I'll ever sing

The last song I'll sing

I played in the cabaret of love

I wore heart

Fist and glove

Push and shove

Push and shove

And all for love

Take my song take my hand

Never let me down

Like love let me down

Like love pushed me around

So long goodbye

I lost did try

This is the last song

I'll ever sing

The last song I'll sing

This is the last song

I'll ever sing

The last song I'll sing

Here with words

That can't be said

We take songs to our bed

Sing a long sing a long

To my last song
