"Cabaret" lyrics

What good is sitting alone in your room
Come hear the blue notes play, oh
Life is a cabaret, old chum
Come to the cabaret

Put down the knitting, the book and the broom
Time for a holiday, oh
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, the blue notes are waiting

What good's permitting some prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret, old chum
Life is a cabaret, old chum
Come to the Cabaret!
