Le Jeté - La cage aux folles

It's rather gaudy but it's also rather grand
And while the waiter pads your check he'll kiss your hand
The clever gigolos romance the wealthy matrons
At la cage aux folles

It's slightly forties, and a little bit "new wave"
You may be dancing with a girl who needs a shave
Where both the riffraff and the royalty are patrons
At la cage aux folles

[Cage aux folles]
A Saint Tropez tradition
[Cage aux folles ]
You'll lose each inhibition
All week long we're wondering who
Left a green givenchy gown in the Loo

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Here at "La Cage" we live life - how should I put it? On angle!
Just take a deep breath, a sip of champagne and open your eyes
What do you see?

You'll be so dazzled by the ambience you're in
You'll never notice that there's water in the gin
Come for a drink and you may wanna spend the winter
At la cage aux folles

It's bad and beautiful
It's bawdy and bizarre
I know a duchess who got pregnant at the bar
Just who is who and what is what
Is quite a question at la cage aux folles

[Cage aux folles]
The Maitre D' is dashing
[Cage aux folles]
The hat check girl is flashing
We import the drinks that you buy
So the Perrier is Canada dry

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

You go alone to have the evening of your life
You meet your mistress
And your boyfriend and your wife
It's a bonanza, it's a mad extravaganza
At la cage aux folles

[Cage aux folles]
A Saint Tropez tradition
[Cage aux folles]
You'll lose each inhibition

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
