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

Time for a holiday

Life is a cabaret old chum

Come to the cabaret

Come taste the wine

Come hear the band come blow a horn

Start celebrating right this way your table's waiting

No use permitting some prophet of doom

To wipe every smile away

Life is a cabaret old chum

Come to the cabaret

Come taste the wine

Come hear the band come blow a horn

Start celebrating right this way your table's waiting

No use permitting some prophet of doom

To wipe every smile away

Life is a cabaret old chum

Only a cabaret old chum

So come to the cabaret
