[00:00:05] Daddy always thought that he married beneath him

[00:00:07] That's what he said that's what he said

[00:00:10] When he proposed he informed my mother

[00:00:12] He was probably her very last chance

[00:00:17] And though she was twenty two

[00:00:19] Though she was twenty two

[00:00:21] Though she was twenty two

[00:00:24] She married him

[00:00:28] Life with my dad wasn't ever a picnic

[00:00:31] More like a come as you are

[00:00:33] When I was five I remember my mother

[00:00:36] Dug earrings out of the car

[00:00:38] I knew they weren't hers but it wasn't

[00:00:41] Something you'd want to discuss

[00:00:44] He wasn't warm

[00:00:46] Well not to her

[00:00:48] Well not to us

[00:00:53] But

[00:00:53] Everything was beautiful at the ballet

[00:01:01] Graceful men lift lovely girls in white

[00:01:08] Yes

[00:01:09] Everything was beautiful at ballet

[00:01:15] Hey

[00:01:16] I was happy at the ballet

[00:01:22] That's why I started class

[00:01:24] Up a steep and very narrow stairway

[00:01:28] To the voice like a metronome

[00:01:32] Up a steep and very narrow stairway

[00:01:36] It wasn't paradise

[00:01:38] It wasn't paradise

[00:01:40] It wasn't paradise

[00:01:42] But it was home

[00:01:49] Mother always said I'd be very attractive

[00:01:51] When I grew up when I grew up

[00:01:54] Diff'rent she said with a special something

[00:01:57] And a very very personal flair

[00:02:00] And though I was eight or nine

[00:02:03] Though I was eight or nine

[00:02:04] Though I was eight or nine

[00:02:08] I hated her

[00:02:12] Now

[00:02:12] Diff'rent is nice but it sure isn't pretty

[00:02:15] Pretty is what it's about

[00:02:17] I never met anyone who was diff'rent

[00:02:20] Who couldn't figure that out

[00:02:22] So beautiful I'd never lived to see

[00:02:29] But it was clear

[00:02:32] If not to her

[00:02:34] Well then to me

[00:02:39] That

[00:02:39] Everyone is beautiful at the ballet

[00:02:47] Every prince has got to have his swan

[00:02:55] Yes

[00:02:55] Everyone is beautiful at the ballet

[00:03:01] Hey

[00:03:03] I was pretty

[00:03:05] At the ballet

[00:03:11] Up a steep and very narrow stairway

[00:03:15] To the voice like a metronome

[00:03:19] Up a steep and very narrow stairway

[00:03:23] It wasn't paradise

[00:03:25] It wasn't paradise

[00:03:27] It wasn't paradise

[00:03:29] But it was home

[00:03:34] I don't know what they were for or against really

[00:03:37] Except each other

[00:03:39] I mean I was born to save their marriage

[00:03:42] But when my father came to pick my mother up

[00:03:44] At the hospital

[00:03:45] He said well I thought this was going to help

[00:03:48] But I guess it's not

[00:03:50] Anyway I did have a fantastic fantasy life

[00:03:53] I used to dance around the living room

[00:03:55] With my arms up like this

[00:03:57] My fantasy was that there was an indian chief

[00:03:59] And he'd say to me

[00:04:01] Maggie do you wanna dance

[00:04:03] And I'd say daddy I would love to dance

[00:04:06] Doo doo doo doo

[00:04:07] But it was clear

[00:04:08] Doo doo doo

[00:04:09] When he proposed

[00:04:10] Doo doo do

[00:04:11] That I was born to help their marriage and when

[00:04:14] That's what he said

[00:04:15] Doo doo doo

[00:04:16] That's what she said

[00:04:18] Doo doo doo

[00:04:19] I used to dance around the living room

[00:04:21] Doo doo doo doo

[00:04:22] He wasn't warm

[00:04:24] Doo doo doo

[00:04:24] Not to her

[00:04:27] It was an indian chief and he'd say

[00:04:30] Maggie do you wanna dance

[00:04:33] And I'd say daddy I would love to

[00:04:38] Everything was beautiful at the ballet

[00:04:45] Raise your arms and someone's always there
