At the Ballet (Glee Cast Version)歌词

[00:05.39]Daddy always thought that he married beneath him.
[00:07.77]That's what he said, that's what he said.
[00:10.32]When he proposed he informed my mother
[00:13.01]It was probably her very last chance.
[00:16.42]And though she was twenty-two,
[00:19.04]Though she was twenty-two,
[00:21.53]Though she was twenty-two,
[00:26.78]She married him.
[00:31.08]Life with my dad wasn't ever a picnic
[00:33.39]More like a "Come as you are."
[00:35.95]When I was five I remember my mother
[00:38.57]Dug earrings out of the car
[00:41.06]I knew that they weren't hers, But it wasn't
[00:43.73]Something you'd wanna discuss.
[00:46.60]He wasn't warm.
[00:49.97]Well, not to her.
[00:53.09]Well, not to us
[00:57.71]But
[00:58.02]Everything was beautiful at the ballet.
[01:05.01]Graceful men lift lovely girls in white.
[01:11.38]Yes,
[01:11.81]Everything was beautiful at the ballet.
[01:17.55]Hey!
[01:19.24]I was happy... at the ballet.
[01:26.00]That's when I started ballet class...
[01:28.31]Up a steep and very narrow stairway.
[01:31.93]To the voice like a metronome.
[01:35.67]Up a steep and very narrow stairway.
[01:39.42]It wasn't paradise...
[01:41.23]It wasn't paradise...
[01:43.04]It wasn't paradise...
[01:45.47]But it was home.
[01:49.59]Mother always said I'd be very attractive
[01:52.09]When I grew up, when I grew up.
[01:54.64]"Different," she said, "With a special something
[01:56.99]And a very, very personal flair."
[02:01.04]And though I was eight or nine,
[02:03.16]Though I was eight or nine,
[02:05.35]Though I was eight or nine,
[02:09.78]I hated her.
[02:13.83]Now,
[02:14.14]"Different" is nice, but it sure isn't pretty.
[02:16.65]"Pretty" is what it's about.
[02:18.95]I never met anyone who was "different"
[02:21.38]Who couldn't figure that out.
[02:23.63]So beautiful I'd never lived to see.
[02:30.23]But it was clear,
[02:32.60]If not to her,
[02:35.47]Well, then... to me...
[02:36.16]
[02:38.42]That ...
[02:39.55]Everyone is beautiful at the ballet.
[02:46.04]Every prince has got to have his swan.
[02:52.22]Yes,
[02:52.71]Everyone is beautiful at the ballet.
[02:58.15]Hey!...
[02:59.77]I was pretty...
[03:02.30]At the ballet
[03:08.29]
[03:08.81]I was born to save their marriage
[03:11.31]
[03:11.90]but when my father came to pick my mother up
[03:14.64]at the hospital
[03:15.89]he said, "Well, I thought this was going to help.
[03:18.84]but I guess not..."
[03:19.65]
[03:22.67]A few months later,he left,and never came back
[03:28.37]Anyway, I had this fantastic fantasy life.
[03:32.99]I used to dance around the living room
[03:34.86]with my arms up like this
[03:37.42]And in my fantasy there was an Indian Chief
[03:42.10]And he would say to me,
[03:44.47]"Izzie, do you wanna dance?"
[03:47.85]And I would say, "Daddy, I would love to dance!"
[03:54.40]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[03:55.78]But it was clear...
[03:56.96]Doo-doo-doo
[03:57.64]When he proposed...
[03:58.58]Doo-doo-doo
[03:59.71]That I was born to help their marriage and when
[04:03.51]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[04:04.01]That's what she said...
[04:05.01]Doo-doo-doo
[04:05.38]That's what he said...
[04:06.50]Doo-doo-doo
[04:06.70]I used to dance around the living room...
[04:09.94]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[04:10.87]He wasn't warm...
[04:12.18]Doo-doo-doo
[04:12.74]Not to her...
[04:13.93]
[04:14.94]It was an Indian chief and he'd say:
[04:17.83]"Izzie, do you wanna dance?"
[04:21.14]And I'd say, "Daddy, I would love to..."
[04:26.00]Everything was beautiful at the ballet,
[04:32.68]Raise your arms and someone's always there.
[04:39.17]Yes, everything was beautiful at the ballet,
[04:45.54]the ballet,
[04:48.97]the ballet!!!
[05:00.77]
[05:05.14]Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet.
[05:11.69]HEY!...
[05:13.06]I was pretty...
[05:15.37]I was happy...
[05:17.61]"I would love to..."
[05:20.50]At...the...ballet.
