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
So come to cabaret
Come taste the wine
Come hear the band
It is the time of sorrow breaking
Right this way your table's waiting
No use permitting some prophet of doom
Wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret old chum
So come to cabaret
Yeah come taste the wine
Come hear the band
It is time of sorrow breaking
Right this way your table's waiting
No use permitting some prophet of doom
Wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret old chum
Only a cabaret old chum
So come to the cabaret
