Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

This Vicious Cabaret

[Verse]
E
They say that there's a broken light for every heart on Broadway
E
They say that life's a game, then they take the board away
E
They give you masks and costumes and an outline of the story
E
Then leave you all to improvise their vicious cabaret...

B D E D E
In no-longer-pretty cities there are fingers in the kitties
D E F E D E D
There are warrants, forms, and chitties and a jackboot on the stair

E B D B D
There’s Sex and death and human grime, in monochrome for one thin dime
B E
At least the trains all run on time but they don't go anywhere

F# B D
Facing their responsibilities, either on their backs or on their knees
B F# B D
There are ladies who just simply freeze and dare not turn a- way

A B C D C A B C D C
And the widows who refuse to cry will be dressed in garter and bow-tie
A B C D C A B A B
And be taught to kick their legs up high in this vicious cabaret

[Chorus]
B A# B
At last! The 1998 Show!
B A# B
The ballet on the burning stage
B A# B
The documentary seen
B A# B
Up on the fractured screen
B A# A
The dreadful poem scrawled upon the crumpled page...

B D E G E
There's a policeman with an honest soul
D E G E
Who’s seen whose head is on the pole
D E D E D E D E
And he grunts and fills his briar bowl with a feeling of unease

[Verse]
A B D B
Then he briskly frisks the torn remains
A B D B
For a fingerprint or crimson stains
A B C D C A B A
And endevours to ignore the chains that he walks in to his knees

C D E F# B E
While his master in the dark nearby inspects the hands, with brutal eye
B E F# B D
That have never brushed a lover's thigh but have squeezed a nation's throat

A B C D C
And he hungers in his secret dreams
A B C D C
For the harsh embrace of cruel machines
A B C D C
But his lover is not what she seems
A B A B
And she will not leave a note

[Chorus]
B A# B
At last! The 1998 Show!
B A# B
The Situation Tragedy
B A# B
Grand Opera slick with soap
B A# B
Cliffhangers with no hope
B A# A
The water-colour in the flooded gallery...

B D E G E
There's a girl who'll push but will not shove
D E G E
And she's desperate for her father's love
D E D G E D E D E
She believes the hand beneath the glove may be one she needs to hold

[Verse]
A B C D C
Though she doubts her host's moralities
A B C D C
She decides she is more at ease
A B C D C
In the Land Of Doing-As-You-Please
A B A B
Than outside in the cold

B E
But the backdrops peel and the sets give way
F# B D
And the cast get eaten by the play
B E
There's a murderer at the Matinee,
F# B D
There are dead men in the aisles

A B D B
And the patrons and the actors too
A B C D C
Are uncertain if the show is through
A B C D C A B A B
And with side-long looks await their cue, but the frozen mask just smiles

[Chorus]
B A# B
At last! The 1998 Show!
B A# B
The torch-song no one ever sings!
B A# B
The curfew chorus line!
B A# B
The comedy divine!
B A# A
The bulging eyes of puppets strangled by their strings!

E
There's thrills and chills and girls galore, sing-songs and surprises!
E
There's something hear for everyone, reserve your seat today!
E
There's mischief and malarkies but no queers or yids or darkies
E
Within this bastard's carnival, this vicious cabaret!
