    What good is sitting,
    alone In you 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 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.

    What good's admitting
    Some prophet of doom
    To wipe every smile away.
    Life is a cabaret, old chum,
    So come to the cabaret!

    I used to have this 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 neighbours
    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:
    "What good is sitting, all alone in you 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 my mind up, back in Chelsea,
    When I go: "I'm going like Elsie".

    Start by admitting,
    From cradle to tomb
    It isn't that a long a stay.
    Life is a cabaret, old chum,
    It's only a cabaret, old chum
    And I love a cabaret.
