The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter)

[00:11.40] Her name was Kitty
[00:13.42] Made her money being pretty and witty
[00:16.39] They gave her the keys to this city
[00:19.37] Then they said she didn't do it legitly, uh
[00:23.42] I bought a ticket
[00:25.53] She's dancing in her garters and fishnets
[00:28.65] 50 in the cast, zero missteps
[00:31.80] Looking back, I guess it was kismet
[00:35.61] I waited by the stage door
[00:38.04] Packed in with the autograph hounds
[00:39.90] Barking her name
[00:40.95] Then glowing like the end of a cigarette
[00:43.32] Wow, she came out
[00:45.17] I said, "You're living my drеam"
[00:48.11] Then she said to me
[00:51.73] "Hеy, thank you for the lovely bouquet
[00:55.52] You're sweeter than a peach
[00:57.43] But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:01.91] And you're never, ever gonna
[01:03.74] Wait, the more you play, the more that you pay
[01:07.58] You're softer than a kitten
[01:09.50] So you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:14.08] And you're never gonna wanna"
[01:18.39] She was a menace
[01:20.05] The baby of the family in Lenox
[01:22.94] Her father whored around like all men did
[01:26.09] Her mother took pills and played tennis
[01:30.14] So she waited by the stage door
[01:32.41] As the club promoter arrived
[01:34.09] She said, "I'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life
[01:38.15] That's all mine"
[01:39.72] But that's not what showgirls get
[01:42.62] They leave us for dead
[01:45.94] Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
[01:50.28] You're sweeter than a peach
[01:52.04] But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:56.48] And you're never, ever gonna
[01:58.24] Wait, the more you play, the more that you pay
[02:02.24] You're softer than a kitten
[02:04.09] So you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[02:08.69] And you're never gonna wanna
[02:10.65] I took her pearls of wisdom
[02:12.54] Hung them from my neck
[02:14.01] I paid my dues with every bruise
[02:15.63] I knew what to expect
[02:17.36] Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins?
[02:20.15] They ripped me off like false lashes
[02:22.15] And then threw me away
[02:23.80] And all the headshots on the walls
[02:27.36] Of the dance hall are of the witches
[02:30.50] Who wish I'd hurry up and die
[02:35.59] But I'm immortal now, baby dolls
[02:39.86] I couldn't if I tried
[02:44.58] So I say
[02:46.57] "Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[02:49.82] I'm married to the hustle
[02:51.52] And now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
[02:55.87] And I'll never know another
[02:57.76] Pain hidden by the lipstick and lace (lipstick and lace)
[03:01.94] Sequins are forever, and now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
[03:07.86] Wouldn't have it any other way"
[03:11.31] (Thank you for the lovely bouquet) oh
[03:14.26] Wouldn't have it any other way
[03:17.18] (Thank you for the lovely bouquet)
[03:21.56] Hey, Kitty
[03:23.35] (Thank you for lovely bouquet)
[03:26.03] Now I make my money being pretty and witty
[03:29.34] Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[03:32.98]
[03:36.00] Thank you for an unforgettable night
[03:38.78] We will see you next time
[03:41.04] Give it up for the band
[03:44.09] And the dancers
[03:46.13] And of course, Sabrina
[03:48.38] I love you, Taylor
[03:49.71] That's our show
[03:50.96] We love you so much
[03:52.35] Goodnight!
[03:52.61]
