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 the horn start celebrating
Right this way your tables waiting

No use permitting some prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret

Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret

Come taste the wine
Come hear the band
Come blow the horn start celebrating
Right this way your tables waiting

Start by admitting from cradle to tomb
It isn't that long a stay
Life is a cabaret old chum
Come to the cabaret

Life is a cabaret old chum
So come to
The cabaret.
