10000 Maniacs - Cabaret Lyrics
Music by 10,000 maniacs - lyrics by mary ramseyShards of glass cut through my gazeBroken streamers hanging at my legsDrunk and giddy full of fateAt the cabaretSmokey stares from the barDo stray bottles tumbleI feel the misty sprayWhat a perfect, perfect day for the cabaretFrom afar he seesVenus rise overwhelmingly beautifulHe sighs the look of love was in her eyesPuts his hand upon her legLooking closer his lust begins to fadeWhat a drag the queen did say.Could this be a dream Im in? ( fellini would be proud )Gluttony enfolds the sceneGive them one last round ,Shining faces dance awaySwinging skirts between the panted legsKaleidescopingThen shassez in a blink the glasses flySuddenly joy becomes a fightThere they tossed and turned a sight.
