<br>

Albin:<br>

Here at "LA CAGE" we live life - how should I put it? On angle! <br>

Not to worry. You'll soon get your bearings. Just take a deep breath, <br>

a sip of champagne and open your eyes. What do you see?<br>

<br>

It's rather gaudy but it's also rather grand.<br>

And while the waiter pads your check he'll kiss your hand.<br>

The clever gigolos romance the wealthy matrons<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

It's slightly forties, and a little bit "New Wave".<br>

You may be dancing with a girl who needs a shave.<br>

Where both the riffraff and the royalty are patrons<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

La Cage Aux Folles,<br>

The Maitre d' is dashing,<br>

Cage Aux Folles,<br>

The hat check girl is flashing,<br>

We import the drinks that you buy,<br>

So the Perrier is Canada Dry.<br>

Eccentric couples always punctuate the scene.<br>

A pair of eunuchs and a nun with a marine.<br>

To feel alive you get a limousine to drive you <br>

To La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

Angelique:<br>

It's bad and beautiful, <br>

It's bawdy and bizarre.<br>

Albin:<br>

I know a Duchess who got pregnant at the bar.<br>

Albin and Angelique:<br>

Just who is who and What is What <br>

Is quite a question at La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

Angelique, Trio, Albin:<br>

Go for the mystery, the magic and the mood.<br>

Paulette:<br>

Avoid the hustlers,<br>

Angelique:<br>

And the men's room,<br>

Two Men:<br>

And the food.<br>

All:<br>

For you get glamour and romance and indigestion<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

La Cage Aux Folles, a Sait Tropez tradition,<br>

Cage Aux Folles <br>

You'll lose each inhibition,<br>

Albin:<br>

All week long we're wondering who<br>

Left a green Givenchy gown in the loo.<br>

All:<br>

You go alone to have the evening of your life.<br>

Albin:<br>

You meet your mistress <br>

And your boy-friend and your wife.<br>

All:<br>

It's a bonanza, it's a mad extravaganza,<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

<br>

Boy? Girl?<br>

Oui? Non?<br>

Hot. Cold.<br>

Chaud. Froid. N'est pas?<br>

Want? Like? Call me!<br>

La la la la la la la <br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la <br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la<br>

<br>

[CAN-CAN Interlude]<br>

<br>

Albin:<br>

You'll be so dazzled by the ambience you're in.<br>

You'll never notice that there's water in the gin.<br>

Come for a drink and you may wanna spend the Winter<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

La Cage Aux Folles, a Saint Tropez tradition,<br>

Cage Aux Folles <br>

You'll lose each inhibition,<br>

We indulge each change in your mood.<br>

Come and sip your Dubonnet in the nude.<br>

La la la la la la la <br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la<br>

La la la la la la la <br>

La la la la la<br>

<br>

Albin:<br>

You go alone to have the evening of your life.<br>

You meet your mistress, and your boy-friend, and your wife.<br>

It's a bonanza, it's a mad extravaganza<br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

All:<br>

You cross the thresh-hold and your bridges have been burned.<br>

The bar is cheering for the Duchess has returned.<br>

The mood's contagious; <br>

You can bring your whole<br>

Outrageous entourage - Outrageous entourage - Outrageous entourage<br>

Outrageous Entourage!<br>

It's hot and hectic, effervescent and eclectic <br>

At La Cage Aux Folles.<br>

<br>
