Karaoké Betrayed The Producers

Mail call Here Bialystock ya got a postcard Brazil

A postcard from where

Brazil who do I know in Brazil

Dear Max

Rio is everything you said it was and more

Ulla and I think of you every chance we get

In the morning when we have breakfast on our terrace

Many different herrings and in the evening when we

Samba together in the moonlight

Sorry must run Ulla's waiting it's almost eleven wish you were here Leo

Just like Cain and Abel you pulled a sneak attack

I thought that we were brothers

Then you stabbed me in the back betrayed oh boy I'm so betrayed

Like Samson and Delilah your love began to fade

I'm crying in the hoosegow you're in Rio getting laid

Betrayed let's face it I'm betrayed

Boy have I been taken oy I'm so forsaken

I should have seen what came to pass

I should have known to watch my ass

I feel like Othello everything is lost

Leo is Iago

Max is double crossed

I'm so dismayed did I mention I'm betrayed

I used to be the king but now I am the fool

A captain without a ship a rabbi without a shul

Now I'm about to go to jail there's no one who will pay my bail

I have no one who I can cry to no one I can say goodbye to

I'm drowning I'm drowning here

I'm going down for the last time

I I got see my whole life flashing before my eyes

I see a weathered old farmhouse with a white picket fence

I'm running through fields of alfalfa with my collie Rex hu, Rex stop it

And I see my mother standing on the back porch

In a worn but clean gingham gown

And I hear her calling out to me

Alvin don't forget your chores

The wood needs a cordin and the cows need a milkin'

Alvin Alvin

Wait a minute my name's not Alvin

That's not my life

I'm not a hillbilly

I grew up in the Bronx

Leo's taken everything even my past

My past's a dying ember but wait now I remember how did it begin

He walked into my office with his cockamamie scheme

You can make more money with a flop than with a hit

We can do it we can do it

I can't do it

We can do it

I can't do it goodbye Max

Lord I want that money

I'm back Max

Come on Leo we can do it step one

Find the play see it swirl it touch it kiss it hello mister Liebkind

Guten Tag hop clop guten Tag hop clop

Adolf Elizabeth Hitler

Guten Tag hop clop guten Tag hop clop step two hire the director

Keep it gay keep it gay keep it two three kick turn turn turn kick turn

Ulla, ooh wah wah wah wah wah wah

Step three raise the money along came Bialy intermission

Step four hire all the actors a wandering minstrel I

A think of shreds and next the little wooden boy

Next that's our Hitler opening night

Good luck good luck good luck break a leg I broke my leg

Springtime for Hitler and Germany a surprise smash

Springtime for Hitler and

Germany it'll run for years

Where did we go right where did we go right

Gimme those books fat fat fatty gimme those books fat fat fatty

Books fat books fat books fat books fat lousy fruit kill the actors you ever eat with one

Then you ran to Rio and you're safely out of reach

I'm behind these bars you're banging Ulla on the beach

Just like Julius Caesar was betrayed by Brutus

Who'd think an accountant would turn out to be my Judas

I'm so dismayed is this how I'm repaid to be betrayed betrayed
