At the Ballet - Musical Cast Recording/The New Musical Cast
Daddy always thought that he married beneath him
That's what he said that's what he said

When he proposed he informed my mother
He was probably her very last chance

And though she was twenty two
Though she was twenty two

Though she was twenty two

She married him

Life with my dad wasn't ever a picnic

More like a come as you are

When I was five I remember my mother

Dug earrings out of the car

I knew they weren't hers but it wasn't
Something you'd want to discuss

He wasn't warm

Well not to her

Well not to us

But
Everything was beautiful at the ballet

Graceful men lift lovely girls in white

Yes
Everything was beautiful at ballet

Hey

I was happy at the ballet

That's why I started class

Up a steep and very narrow stairway

To the voice like a metronome

Up a steep and very narrow stairway

It wasn't paradise
It wasn't paradise

It wasn't paradise

But it was home

Mother always said I'd be very attractive
When I grew up when I grew up

Diff'rent she said with a special something
And a very very personal flair

And though I was eight or nine
Though I was eight or nine
Though I was eight or nine

I hated her

Now
Diff'rent is nice but it sure isn't pretty
Pretty is what it's about

I never met anyone who was diff'rent

Who couldn't figure that out

So beautiful I'd never lived to see

But it was clear

If not to her

Well then to me

That
Everyone is beautiful at the ballet

Every prince has got to have his swan

Yes
Everyone is beautiful at the ballet

Hey

I was pretty

At the ballet

Up a steep and very narrow stairway

To the voice like a metronome

Up a steep and very narrow stairway

It wasn't paradise

It wasn't paradise

It wasn't paradise

But it was home

I don't know what they were for or against really
Except each other

I mean I was born to save their marriage

But when my father came to pick my mother up
At the hospital
He said well I thought this was going to help
But I guess it's not

Anyway I did have a fantastic fantasy life

I used to dance around the living room
With my arms up like this
My fantasy was that there was an indian chief
And he'd say to me
Maggie do you wanna dance

And I'd say daddy I would love to dance
Doo doo doo doo
But it was clear
Doo doo doo
When he proposed
Doo doo do
That I was born to help their marriage and when
Doo doo doo doo
That's what he said
Doo doo doo
That's what she said
Doo doo doo
I used to dance around the living room
Doo doo doo doo
He wasn't warm
Doo doo doo
Not to her

It was an indian chief and he'd say
Maggie do you wanna dance

And I'd say daddy I would love to

Everything was beautiful at the ballet

Raise your arms and someone's always there

Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet

At the ballet

At the ballet

Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet

Hey

I was pretty

I was happy

I would love to

At the ballet
