Lyrics:
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
Come to the cabaret

Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band
Come blow the horn start celebrating,
Right this way your table's waiting.
No use permitting some prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away
Life is a cabaret, old chum
Come to the cabaret!

Only a cabaret, old chum
So come to the cabaret!
