Glitter and be gay[00:00:11]
That's the part I play[00:00:23]
Here I am in Paris France[00:00:23]
Forced to bend my soul[00:00:29]
To a sordid role[00:00:38]
Victimized by bitter bitter circumstance[00:00:39]
Alas for me had I remained beside my lady mother[00:00:50]
My virtue had remained unstained[00:00:53]
Until my maiden hand was gained by some grand duke[00:00:58]
Or other[00:01:05]
Ah 'twas not to be[00:01:13]
Harsh necessity[00:01:17]
Brought me to this gilded cage[00:01:18]
Born to higher things[00:01:30]
Here I droop my wings[00:01:35]
Singing of a sorrow[00:01:40]
Nothing can assuage[00:01:45]
And yet of course I rather like to revel ha ha[00:01:50]
I have no strong objection to champagne ha ha[00:01:54]
My wardrobe is expensive as the devil ha ha[00:01:58]
Perhaps it is ignoble to complain[00:02:02]
Enough enough[00:02:06]
Of being basely tearful[00:02:08]
I'll show my noble stuff[00:02:11]
By being bright and cheerful[00:02:14]
Ha Ha Ha[00:02:57]
Pearls and ruby rings[00:03:05]
Ah how can worldly things take the place of honor lost[00:03:09]
Purchased as they were at such an awful cost[00:03:17]
Bracelets lavalieres can they dry my tears[00:03:22]
Can they blind my eyes from shame[00:03:28]
Can the brightest broach shield me from reproach[00:03:31]
Can the purest diamond purify my name[00:03:34]
And yet of course these trinkets are endearing ha ha[00:03:40]
I'm oh so glad my sapphire is a star ha ha[00:03:43]
I rather like a 20 carat earring ha ha[00:03:49]
If I'm not pure at least my jewels are[00:03:51]
Enough enough I'll take that diamond necklace[00:03:57]
And show my noble stuff[00:04:02]
By being gay and reckless[00:04:38]
Ha Ha Ha[00:04:42]
