At The Ballet (Glee Cast Version)

歌詞

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 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 Isabelle, Santana, Rachel & Kurt Yes, everyone is beautiful at the ballet Hey! Isabelle, Santana, & Kurt I was pretty At the ballet 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" A few months later he left And he never came back 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 I was an Indian Chief And he'd say to me "Izzie, 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-doo 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: "Izzie, 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 The ballet The ballet Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet. The ballet The ballet Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet Hey! I was pretty I was happy "I would love to" Isabelle, Santana, Rachel and Kurt At the ballet
