Ladies and gentlemen, And those who aren't quite alive... Welcome to the Midnight Cabaret! Heh. Enjoy your stay. The skeletons are dressed in gold The ghosts complain about the cold A pumpkin laughs behind the bar And someone's dancing with a star The violins have lost their strings The chandelier has grown some wings But don't you worry, take your seat We've got a show that's quite a treat One, two, three — the curtains rise One, two, three — what a surprise! The dead are dancing, dressed to kill And darling, here's your unpaid bill Round and round, the night is young A thousand crooked songs are sung Step to the left, then spin away Welcome to the cabaret! One, two, three, don't miss a beat The shadows dance beneath your feet No need to scream, no need to pray Just dance the night away! A headless waiter serves the wine He says the vintage's quite divine A phantom sings a little flat The drummer's lost his other hand The mirrors show a different face The clocks have all forgotten grace And if you ask me where's the door I'll smile and ask, "What door is that for?" One, two, three — the lights go low One, two, three — enjoy the show! You came for thrills, you came for fun Don't look so shocked — we've just begun! Round and round, the night is young A thousand crooked songs are sung Step to the left, then spin away Welcome to the cabaret! One, two, three, don't miss a beat The shadows dance beneath your feet No need to scream, no need to pray Just dance the night away! Oh, you're leaving? Already? How disappointing. Round and round, the candles flare The ghosts are flying everywhere Take a bow, enjoy the play At the Midnight Cabaret! One, two, three, the final chime You've danced away your borrowed time The curtains fall, the lights decay... Thank you for coming. Do visit us again. ...If you can find the door.
