Lyrics
Hello Cabaret,
I love your bling and sway,
your bright display,
it isn’t everyday you get to have your way.
Cheers and hoorays!
Here’s to a brand new day,
a brand new day of running with the
wolves, who’ll never understand
the reason for the circumstance.
How is this the way the story goes?
Most will never comprehend,
till’ they’re in the very predicament,
and then it’s oh, oh, oh.
Hello Cabaret,
you’re like a rainy day,
I’ve gotta break away.
Well, look now, this is everything I’ve saved
for just such a day.
Diamonds and spades.
For when you come calling, dancing on my
grave for all my choices made,
judging me for how I played.
The hand you dealt me stains the blood that flows.
Most will never comprehend,
till’ they’re in the very predicament,
and then it’s oh, oh, oh.Hello rainy day,
come wash away
my doubts and my convictions.
Got me waylaid.
Come clean my slate.
Don’t keep me waiting
restless and afraid
of all I once did love but lost.
Nothing comes without a cost.
The wise fool said
that’s just the way it goes.
Most will never comprehend,
till’ they’re in the very predicament,
and then it’s oh, oh.
Are you alright my love?Hello Cabaret,
hope you enjoyed your stay,
and this lil’ soiree,
the mock ballet,
the Beaujolais, and me,
all overlaid,
while I sang and played.
Now it’s a brand new day
for running with the wolves.
