Glitter and Be Gay - Original Cast Recording[00:00:00]

Glitter and be gay[00:00:12]

That's the part i play[00:00:16]

Here am i oh sorry chance[00:00:21]

Forced to bend my soul[00:00:31]

To a sordid role[00:00:36]

Victimized by bitter bitter circumstance[00:00:41]

Alas for me had i remained[00:00:49]

Beside my lady mother[00:00:54]

My virtue had remained unstained[00:00:56]

Until my maiden hand was gained[00:01:01]

By some grand duke or other[00:01:05]

Ah 'twas not to be[00:01:16]

Harsh necessity[00:01:20]

Brought me to this gilded cage[00:01:25]

Born to higher things[00:01:34]

Here i droop my wings[00:01:38]

Ah singing of a sorrow nothing can assuage[00:01:41]

And yet of course i rather like to revel[00:01:57]

Ha ha[00:01:59]

I have no strong objection to champagne[00:02:00]

Ha ha[00:02:03]

My wardrobe is expensive as the devil[00:02:04]

Ha ha[00:02:07]

Perhaps it is ignoble to complain[00:02:07]

Enough enough[00:02:12]

Of being basely tearful[00:02:14]

I'll show my noble stuff[00:02:16]

By being bright and cheerful[00:02:19]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha[00:02:22]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha[00:02:30]

Pearls and ruby rings[00:03:10]

Ah how can worldly things[00:03:13]

Take the place of honor lost[00:03:17]

Can they compensate[00:03:21]

For my fallen state[00:03:22]

Purchased as they were at such an awful cost[00:03:25]

Braceletslavalieres[00:03:30]

Can they dry my tears[00:03:34]

Can they blind my eyes to shame[00:03:36]

Can the brightest brooch[00:03:39]

Shield me from reproach[00:03:41]

Can the purest diamond purify my name[00:03:45]

And yet of course these trinkets are endearing[00:03:50]

Ha ha[00:03:53]

I'm oh so glad my sapphire is a star[00:03:54]

Ha ha[00:03:56]

I rather like a twenty-carat earring[00:03:57]

Ha ha[00:04:00]

If i'm not pure at least my jewels are[00:04:01]

Enough enough[00:04:05]

I'll take their diamond necklace[00:04:07]

And show my noble stuff[00:04:10]

By being gay and reckless[00:04:12]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha[00:04:16]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha[00:04:24]

Observe how bravely i conceal[00:04:43]

The dreadful dreadful shame i feel[00:04:46]

Ha ha ha ha[00:04:49]
