Cabaret




















Cabaret (1972)
a film by Bob Fosse












The babe in his cradle is closing his eyes
The blossom embraces the bee.
But soon, says a whisper;
Arise, arise,
Tomorrow belongs to me













If you haven't any coal in the stove
And you freeze in the winter
And you curse on the wind
At your fate
When you haven't any shoes
On your feet
And your coat's thin as paper
And you look thirty pounds
Underweight.
When you go to get a word of advice
From the fat little pastor
He will tell you to love evermore.
But when hunger comes a rap,
Rat-a-tat, rat-a-tat at the window...
