Meine Damen und Herren, mesdames et messieurs, Ladies and Gentlemen!
Guten Abend, bonsoir, good evening!
Wie geht's? Comment ça va? Do you feel good? Yeah, I bet you do.
Ich bin euer Conférencier; je suis votre compère
I am your host!

Leave your troubles outside! So, life is disappointing? Err? Forget it! We have no troubles here!
Here life is beautiful. The girls are beautiful. Even the orchestra is beautiful!
[Orchestra plays.]
You see? I told you the orchestra was beautiful!
And now presenting the Cabaret Girls!
Rosie! Rosie is so called because of the color of her cheeks
LuLu! Oh, you like LuLu? Huh, yeah? Well, too bad, so does Rosie
Frenchie! You know I like to order Frenchie on the side
Mmm hmm. On your side Frenchie! Just kidding.
Texas! Yes, Texas is from America! Mmm hmm. But she's a very cunning linguist!
Fritzie! Oh, Fritzie, would you stop that? Already this week we have lost two waiters, a table, and three bottles of champagne up there like this.
And Helga! Helga is the baby. I'm like a father to her, mmm hmm. So when she's bad, I spank her. And she's very, very, very, very, very, very bad.
Rosie, LuLu, Frenchie, Texas, Fritzie, and Helga
Each and every one a virgin.
You don't believe me, hmm?
Well, don't take my word for it.
Go ahead, try Helga.
Outside it is winter but in here it's so hot, ooh. Every night we have to battle with the girls to keep them from taking off all of their clothings. So don't go away. Who knows?
Tonight we may lose the battle!

You know, there's only really one way to tell the difference
I'll show you later
Hans! Oh Hans, baby, go easy on the sauerkraut
Herman. You know the funniest thing about Herman?
There's nothing funny about Herman!
And, finally, the toast of Mayfair, Fräulein Sally Bowles!
