lyrics

Ladies and Gentlemen!
So let us raise the curtain now,
Welcome here in the show,
We're here to entertain you all,
Without any self-respect!

And i sing for the rich,
i sing for the poor,
i sing for the beggar and the well-doer!
I dance with fools,
i dance with the wise,
i dance for myself from time to time.
I cry when i hear about cruel,
i cry when kids are oppressed in school…
…but when the news is over,
i dont even remember,
because i know,
it will be gone in a flow,
our life is like smoke,
it's all a big joke!

So let us raise the curtain now,
Welcome here in the show,
We're here to entertain you all,
Without any self-respect!
