M.C.:

Meine Damen und Herren, Madames et Messieurs,

Ladies and Gentlemen!

Und now the Kit Kat Club is proud to present the toast of Mayfair,

Fräulein Sally Bowles!

SALLY BOWLES:

Mama

Thinks I'm living in a convent

A secluded little convent

In the Southern part of France

Mama

Doesn't even have an inkling

That I'm working in a nightclub

In a pair of lacy pants

So, please, sir,

If you run into my mama

Don't reveal my indiscretion

Give a working girl a chance

Hush up, don't tell mama

Shush up, don't tell mama

Don't tell mama whatever you do.

If you had a secret you bet

I could keep it

I would never tell on you!

I'm breakin' ev'ry promise that I gave her

So, won't you kindly do a girl a great big favor

And please, my sweet potato,

Keep this from my mater,

Thou my dance is not against the law

You could tell my papa, that's alright!

'Cause he comes in here ev'ry night

But don't tell mama what you saw!

GIRLS:

Mama

Since I wanted go to Europe

With a couple of my school chumps

And a lady chaperon

Mama

Doesn't even have an inkling

That I left the morning after

And I'm touring on my own

So, please, sir,

If you run into my mama

Don't reveal my indiscretion

SALLY BOWLES:

Just leave well enough alone

SALLY and GIRLS:

Hush up, don't tell mama

Shush up, don't tell mama

Don't tell mama whatever you do.

If you had a secret you bet

I could keep it

I would never tell on you!

You wouldn't want to get me in a pickle

And have a girl ain't cut me off without a nickel

So let's cross one another

Keep this from my mother

Thou I'm still as pure as mama's soul

You can tell my uncle here and now

'Cause he's my agent anyhow

But don't tell mama what you know!

You can tell my grandma, suits me fine

Just guess s'mday she join the line

But don't tell mama what you know!

You can tell my brother, that ain't grim

So if he squeals on me

I'll squeal on him

But don't tell mama, bitte

Don't tell mama, please sir

Don't tell mama what you know!

If you see my mammy mums the word
