《Bernstein: Candide -Glitter and Be Gay》歌词

[00:00:00] Act I 'Glitter and be Gay' (Live) - Edita Gruberova

[00:00:16] Glitter and be gay

[00:00:21] That's the part I play

[00:00:26] Here I am in Paris France

[00:00:38] Forced to bend my soul

[00:00:43] To a sordid role

[00:00:49] Victimized by bitter bitter circumstance

[00:00:59] Alas for me had I remained

[00:01:04] Beside my lady mother

[00:01:06] My virtue had remained unstained

[00:01:12] Until my maiden hand was gained

[00:01:18] By some grand duke or other

[00:01:32] Ah 'twas not to be

[00:01:37] Harsh necessity

[00:01:43] Brought me to this gilded cage

[00:01:55] Born to higher things

[00:02:00] Here I droop my wings

[00:02:04] Ah singing of a sorrow nothing can assuage

[00:02:20] And yet of course I rather like to revel

[00:02:25] I have no strong objection to champagne

[00:02:29] My wardrobe is expensive as the devil

[00:02:32] Ha ha

[00:02:32] Perhaps it is ignoble to complain

[00:02:38] Enough enough

[00:02:40] Of being basely tearful

[00:02:43] I'll show my noble stuff

[00:02:46] By being bright and cheerful

[00:02:50] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:01] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:08] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:13] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:16] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:19] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:21] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:25] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:03:48] Pearls and ruby rings

[00:03:51] Ah how can worldly things

[00:03:55] Take the place of honor lost

[00:03:58] Can they compensate

[00:04:01] For my fallen state

[00:04:04] Purchased as they were at such an awful cost

[00:04:10] Bracelets lavalieres

[00:04:13] Can they dry my tears

[00:04:16] Can they blind my eyes to shame

[00:04:20] Can the brightest brooch

[00:04:22] Shield me from reproach

[00:04:24] Can the purest diamond purify my name

[00:04:31] And yet of course these trinkets are endearing

[00:04:34] Ha ha

[00:04:35] I'm oh so glad my sapphire is a star

[00:04:37] Ha ha

[00:04:38] I rather like a twenty carat earring

[00:04:41] Ha ha

[00:04:42] If I'm not pure at least my jewels are

[00:04:47] Enough enough

[00:04:50] I'll take their diamond necklace

[00:04:53] And show my noble stuff

[00:04:56] By being gay and reckless

[00:04:59] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:11] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:14] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:18] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:21] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:25] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:28] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:31] Observe how bravely I conceal

[00:05:34] The dreadful dreadful shame I feel

[00:05:37] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:40] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:42] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:43] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:45] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:48] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:50] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:53] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:05:59] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:06:02] Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:06:16] Ha ha ha
