[00:12.256]Glitter and be gay
[00:16.936]That's the part i play
[00:21.944]Here am i oh sorry chance
[00:31.364]Forced to bend my soul
[00:36.113]To a sordid role
[00:41.493]Victimized by bitter bitter circumstance
[00:49.293]Alas for me had i remained
[00:54.372]Beside my lady mother
[00:56.592]My virtue had remained unstained

[01:05.700]By some grand duke or other
[01:16.118]Ah 'twas not to be
[01:20.748]Harsh necessity
[01:25.318]Brought me to this gilded cage

[02:07.02]Ha ha
[02:07.982]Perhaps it is ignoble to complain
[02:12.211]Enough enough
[02:14.110]Of being basely tearful
[02:16.729]I'll show my noble stuff
[02:19.387]By being bright and cheerful
[02:22.546]Ha ha ha ha ha ha
[02:30.495]Ha ha ha ha ha ha
[03:10.357]Pearls and ruby rings
[03:13.847]Ah how can worldly things
[03:17.397]Take the place of honor lost
[03:21.226]Can they compensate
[03:22.946]For my fallen state
[03:25.774]Purchased as they were at such an awful cost
[03:30.534]Braceletslavalieres
[03:34.174]Can they dry my tears
[03:36.573]Can they blind my eyes to shame
[03:39.701]Can the brightest brooch
[03:41.560]Shield me from reproach
[03:45.359]Can the purest diamond purify my name
[03:50.768]And yet of course these trinkets are endearing
[03:53.247]Ha ha
[03:54.87]I'm oh so glad my sapphire is a star
[03:56.957]Ha ha
[03:57.727]I rather like a twenty-carat earring
[04:00.515]Ha ha
[04:01.315]If i'm not pure at least my jewels are
[04:05.703]Enough enough
[04:07.782]I'll take their diamond necklace
[04:10.111]And show my noble stuff
[04:12.580]By being gay and reckless
[04:16.480]Ha ha ha ha ha ha
[04:24.49]Ha ha ha ha ha ha
[04:43.356]Observe how bravely i conceal
[04:46.94]The dreadful dreadful shame i feel

Glitter and Be Gay -Original Cast Recording
Glitter and be gay
That's the part i play
Here am i oh sorry chance
Forced to bend my soul
To a sordid role
Victimized by bitter bitter circumstance
Alas for me had i remained
Beside my lady mother
My virtue had remained unstained
Until my maiden hand was gained
By some grand duke or other
Ah 'twas not to be
Harsh necessity
Brought me to this gilded cage
Born to higher things
Here i droop my wings
Ah singing of a sorrow nothing can assuage
And yet of course i rather like to revel
Ha ha
I have no strong objection to champagne
Ha ha
My wardrobe is expensive as the devil
Ha ha
Perhaps it is ignoble to complain
Enough enough
Of being basely tearful
I'll show my noble stuff
By being bright and cheerful
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Pearls and ruby rings
Ah how can worldly things
Take the place of honor lost
Can they compensate
For my fallen state
Purchased as they were at such an awful cost
Braceletslavalieres
Can they dry my tears
Can they blind my eyes to shame
Can the brightest brooch
Shield me from reproach
Can the purest diamond purify my name
And yet of course these trinkets are endearing
Ha ha
I'm oh so glad my sapphire is a star
Ha ha
I rather like a twenty-carat earring
Ha ha
If i'm not pure at least my jewels are
Enough enough
I'll take their diamond necklace
And show my noble stuff
By being gay and reckless
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Observe how bravely i conceal
The dreadful dreadful shame i feel
Ha ha ha ha
