Morality Is Vanity |
Nobody is evil, nobody is good |
All the guilty people have misunderstood |
It’s really nothing personal |
You shouldn’t blame yourself |
The crimes are irreversible |
The life sentence is death |
So here we are again in cabaret |
At the cave of the Golden Calf |
Sensitive flowers stay at home tonight |
We are playing for the others |
The ones given to pleasures |
The ones who still remember how to laugh |
A problem is no problem after all |
In the noise and smoke of the music hall |
And if you get no joy from music hall |
Remember there is always alcohol |
And if you get no joy from gin |
Here is the abyss: jump in! |
Seven million people died in the great war |
A bout of influenza quadrupled that score |
Why pimp to posterity? |
Why should they admire us? |
All the heroes of Valhalla |
Weigh less than a virus |
Standing on the courthouse dome |
Justice puts her blindfold on |
Down below the innocent are strutting |
On a catwalk of shame |
This year’s fashion in crime will be |
Less child abuse, more blasphemy |
Morality is vanity |
The ugly given flattery grow vain |
So here we are again in cabaret |
At the cave of the Golden Calf |
Laughing in the face of desperation |
As we spin towards the future |
At one second per second |
Like records on the pin of a phonograph |
The future is no problem after all |
In the noise and smoke of the music hall |
And if you get no joy from music hall |
Remember there is always alcohol |
And if you get no joy from gin |
Give this world a miss |
Everybody sing |
Here is the abyss: jump in! |
