I want to me
0:30
Oathes me upgebeaut a house Like a pence Daph can, mitten from the street
0:36
A shone in a dark And a caimum what's blost a raich
0:41
A longed trep of Holtz would leupe A second night long Lange a rope
0:48
A trite a loit, I know not how high I have my coffee in the morning
0:56
my brandy in the evening and Avrov in the afternoon I don't have any great days
1:08
since I've my matinee days With Aram In the afternoon He's got a small apartment
1:16
In the center of town You could hardly say it was posh But I got my gremlin
1:21
And I hurry on down to hear the banister squeak And the waterbed slosh
1:24
I think you're PM, every AM, every PM, because this too exciting tune
1:32
because she's got a rum, that's right, I said, Arup, there's nothing like a rom in the afternoon
1:42
I'm the greatest star. I am by far
1:52
But no one knows it. Wait! You're gonna hear a voice, a silver flute
2:02
Oh, they'll cheer each toot. Oh, wow, she's good when I expose it
2:10
Now, can't you see to look at me that I'm a natural Camille
2:17
As Camille, I just feel. I have so much to offer. Hey listen, I know I'd be divine
2:25
because I'm a natural copper. So many voices telling me to choose
2:37
It like a game where either team I lose This kind of noise just makes me want to shout
2:50
I'd like to buy a one-way ticket out. Rules on the road say, don't look back
2:59
Eyes straight ahead, don't jump the track. Try a new game. And pray that I can win
3:07
Because I just don't feel at home in mind, so I'll slip now into someone else's skin
3:16
Can find each other in the crowded streets and the guarded parks by the rusty fountains and the dusty trees with the battered barks
3:26
And they walk together, cast the postered walls with the crude remarks
3:33
And they meet a party to the friends of friends who they never know
3:37
Will you pick me up or do I meet you there? Shall we let it go
3:42
Did you get my message? Because I looked in vain. Can we see each other Tuesday if it doesn't rain
3:47
Look, I'll call you in the morning or my service will explain. And another hundred people just got off of the train
3:58
Because in putting together tonight's show, I was so excited about the Yiddish performances
4:03
and about the fact that this show is happening in Yiddish that I decided the way that we were going to avoid tickets this evening
4:09
was to provide the lyrics to four popular show tunes in Yiddish
4:17
These people on the stage are going to receive the lyrics in Yiddish
4:21
and they're going to perform these four very popular songs in Yiddish
4:25
and Adam it's up to you to decide who will be deserving of the tickets
5:48
This is easier I hope and to say in a few He's gonna love for in free
5:58
Get to get fin in my and vinko From dem him I don't know why he tried to act like he didn't practice this this afternoon
6:09
He practiced this When I meet the wizard Once I prove my worth
6:16
And then I meet the wizard What I've waited for Since, since birth
6:23
And with all his wizard wisdom By my looks, he won't be blinded
6:29
Do you think the wizard is dumb Or like Munchkin's so small-minded
6:36
No He'll say to me I see who you truly are A girl whom I can rely
6:42
And that's how we'll be good The wizard and I I I can fix
6:53
this I can twist it into sugar butter covered pieces never mind
7:03
what's underneath it I have done it before I'll make me a dawn to
7:13
help make it through. I learned that from you. Mama, it's amazing
7:23
what they can do. It's nine o'clock in the morning
7:36
I teach what's been instilled in me. But is this all were meant for
7:41
condemned to mere tranquillity But women feel as men do We must engage our mind and souls
7:52
And though we promise Have our worth define our roles Over mountains, over oceans
8:02
Let tradition give way For we all need our liberty for sweet liberty we pray
8:14
And I wake from my bed with the urge to depart and to follow the dreams of my heart
8:26
Unglevee, her, you haste, My heart, my heart, my..
9:02
This is my quest, no matter how homeless, no matter how far, to fight for the right, without question of course, without question of bores, to be willing to hell, to hell, to be willing to march into hell
9:29
for a heavenly course. And I know if I'll only be true
9:36
To this glorious quest That my heart will I peaceful and calm
9:44
When I'm laid to my rest. Mama, please take our advice. We aren't the lunch
9:55
I'm not many price. Father will buy you the right If only this was
10:01
You hadn't been twice It could be so nice If Mama got married to stay
10:15
But Mama gets married And married And Married
