Cabaret: The Money Song (Sitting Pretty)

My father needs money
My uncle needs money
My mother is thin as a reed
But me
I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need (ooh)

My dearest friend Fritzie
Is south of his wits
He has four starving children to feed
But me
I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need (doo-wa)

I know my little cousin Eric has
His creditors hysterical
And also cousin Herman
Had to pawn his mother's ermine
And my sisters and my brothers took to
Hawking one another too

But I've got some talents which
Filled up my balance so
Even my bankers agree (ooh ah)
That me
I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need!

I know my little cousin Eric has
His creditors hysterical
And also cousin Herman
Had to pawn his mother's ermine
And my sister and my brothers took to
Hawking one another too

But I'm not a nincompoop
I've got an income you
Put in the bank to accrue
Yes, me
I'm sitting pretty
Life is pretty sitting with
Pretty sitting with
Pretty sitting with you
