Off Broadway - Every Time I Die [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

This isn't at all unpleasant. I'm enchanted by the lavish ballet
And I'll whistle the tune all the way to the gallows that I heard at the cabaret

At the sheriff's signal, the orchestra moves the floor
Don't it make you feel wonderful?
Body twisting strictly ballroom. Criminally elegant, ideal postured Viennese waltzer

I'm dressed to kill. I'm weightless and well rehearsed
In my godless opera my character is canonized
Uphand me. This is a musical and nothing goes wrong

Can't keep the classics out of the head of the masochists. Strike up the band
It's 245 beats for a measure or 5 beats per 6 steps on alternating feet

The show must go on. Never mind the teeth and fingernails, the show must go on
I don't feel at all like I thought I would, but I could probably go on like this forever

Tonight, we dance, for tomorrow they release the dogs. 1,2,3. Keep it up
1,2,3. Savor it
(Where is my head? Where is my heart?)
Everything vanishes
