"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.
It's time for a holiday.
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, Your table's waiting.

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

I used to have a girlfriend Known as Elsie,
With whom I shared A four sordid rooms in Chelsea
She wasn't what you'd call a blushing flower...
As a matter of fact she rented by the hour.

The day she died the neighbors Came to snicker:
"Well, that's what comes from too much pills and liquor."
But when I saw her laid out like a Queen,
She was the happiest... corpse... I'd ever seen.

I think of Elsie to this very day.
I remember how she'd turn to me and say:
"What good is sitting all alone in you room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

And as for me, And as for me,
I made my mind up, back in Chelsea,
When I go, I'm going like Elsie.

Start by admitting, From cradle to tomb
It isn't that a long a stay.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
It's only a Cabaret, old chum
And I love a Cabaret.

    I have always enjoyed Liza Minelli as a great actress and as a wonderful singer. Also I might be the only person person in the world who cannot compare Liza to her famous Mom and Dad. Liza is extremely talented and I sense she had to work extremely hard to get those talents. Nothing was handed to her.

    Why is this song considered a breakdown? Not just here, but in the musical in general. I saw Susan Egan do it and she angrily threw her microphone down at the end. Why is that? I can assume some reasons why Sally might be angry while singing this song but i'm not completely sure why....

    I was at work today and I thought of this song and was singing it in my head and now it's put me in an even better mood! Fantastic Miss Sally Bowles! AKA Liza Minelli

    After listening and seeing this magnificent performance, this is what you're thinking about? Some day you will get old, and you will indeed be sad if you can't enjoy something without thinking of something negative about the performer.

    This is the second best performance of her career (after Lucille Austero.)
