Lyrics: Stephen Sondheim
Music: Stephen Sondheim
Good times and bum times
I’ve seen them all and , my dear
I’m still here
Plush velvet sometimes
Sometimes just pretzels and beer
But I’m here
I’ve stuffed the dailies in my shoes
Strummed ukuleles, sung the blues
Seen all my dreams disappear
But I’m here
I ‘ve slept in shanties, guest of the WPA
But I’m here
Danced in my scanties
Three bucks a night was the pay
But I’m here
I’ve stood in breadlines
with the best
Watched while the headlines did the rest
In the Depression,was I depressed?
Nowhere near
I became a big financier
And I’m here
I’ve gotten through “Hey,lady”
“Aren’t you whoozis?
“Wow,what a looker you were”
Or better yet,“Sorry,I thought you were whoozis”
Whatever happened to her?
Oh,good times and bum times
I’ve seen them all and , my dear
I’m still here
Plush velvet sometimes
Sometimes just pretzels and beer
But I’m here
I’ve run the gamut
A to Z
Three cheers and damn it
C’est la vie
I got through all last year
And I’m here
Lord know，at least I was there
And I’m here
Look who’s there
I’m still here…
