Leave your troubles outside!
So--life is disappointing? Forget it!
We have no troubles here.
Here life is beautiful...
The girls are beautiful...
Even the orchestra is beautiful!
(musical interlude)
You see? I told you the orchestra was beautiful.
And now presenting the Cabaret Girls!
Rosie! (Rosie is so called because of the color of her cheeks.)
Lulu! (Oh, you like Lulu? Well, too bad! So does Rosie.)
Frenchie! (You know I like to order Frenchie on the side. On your side, Frenchie! Just kidding!)
Texas! (Yes, Texas is from America! But she's a very cunning linguist!)
Fritzie! (Oh, Fritzie, please, will you stop that! Already this week we have lost two waiters, a table, and three bottles of champagne up there.)
and Helga! (Helga is the baby. I'm just like a father to her. So when she's bad, I spank her. And she's very, very, very, very, very, very bad!)
Rosie, Lulu, Frenchie, Texas, Fritzie...Und Helga.
Each and every one a virgin!
You don't believe me?
Well, don't take my word for it.
Go ahead. Try Helga.
Outside it is winter. But in here it's so hot,
Every night we have to battle with the girls to keep from taking off all their clothings.
So don't go away.
Who knows?
Tonight we may lose the battle!
