What good is sitting alone in your room

Come hear the music play - that's the music

Life is a cabaret, ol' chum

Come on, ah come to the cabaret



Put down that knitting, put down the book

Put down that broom

Time for a holiday

Life is a cabaret, ol' chum

Ah come on, come on, come to the cabar-ar-et



Come taste the wine, come over here and hear the band

Come on and blow your horn, start celebrating

Right this way your table's waiting



There's no use permitting some prophet of doom

Oh, wipe every smile away, oh yeah

Life is a cabaret, my friend

Ah come on, come on, come to the cabaret



Put down that knitting, put down that book

Put down that broom as well

It is time for a holiday right now-ow

Because I'm sayin' life is a cabaret, my very best friend

Co-ome to the cabaret



Come taste the wine, come hear-ear the band

Come blow your horn, start celebrating

Right this way your table's waiting

Yeah



Start by admitting from cradle to tomb

It isn't that far away

Life is a cabaret, my friend

Only a cabaret, my very best friend

Life is a cabaret, ol' chum

Come to the cabaret, cabaret...

Come, the cabaret, let's have some fun, cabaret

Come to the cabaret



What use is sitting alone in your room
