Taylor Swift - The Life of a Showgirl (Lyrics) ft. Sabrina Carpenter
[00:11.28] Her name was Kitty
[00:13.42] Made her money being pretty and witty
[00:16.32] They gave her the keys to this city
[00:19.51] Then they said she didn't do it legitly, oh
[00:23.50] I bought a ticket
[00:25.62] She's dancing in her garters and fishnets
[00:28.55] 50 in the cast, zero missteps
[00:31.73] Looking back, I guess it was kismet
[00:35.45] I waited by the stage door
[00:37.84] Packed in with the autograph hounds
[00:39.71] Barking her name
[00:40.76] Then glowing like the end of a cigarette
[00:43.15] Wow, she came out
[00:44.48] I said, "You're living my dream"
[00:48.36] Then she said to me
[00:51.81] "Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
[00:55.80] You're sweeter than a peach
[00:57.40] But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:01.91] And you're never, ever gonna
[01:03.77] Wait, the more you play, the more that you pay
[01:08.02] You're softer than a kitten so
[01:09.88] You don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:14.13] And you're never gonna wanna"
[01:18.38] She was a menace
[01:20.24] The baby of the family in Lenox
[01:23.15] Her father whored around like all men did
[01:26.35] Her mother took pills and played tennis
[01:30.87] So she waited by the stage door
[01:32.45] As the club promoter arrived
[01:34.31] She said, "I'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life that's all mine"
[01:39.89] But that's not what showgirls get
[01:43.08] They leave us for dead
[01:46.26] Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
[01:50.52] You're sweeter than a peach
[01:51.85] But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[01:56.62] And you're never, ever gonna
[01:58.48] Wait, the more you play, the more that you pay
[02:02.47] You're softer than a kitten so
[02:04.60] You don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
[02:08.84] And you're never gonna wanna
[02:10.97] I took her pearls of wisdom
[02:12.56] Hung them from my neck
[02:13.89] I paid my dues with every bruise
[02:15.75] I knew what to expect
[02:17.35] Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins?
[02:20.53] They ripped me off like false lashes
[02:22.13] And then threw me away
[02:23.99] And all the headshots on the walls
[02:27.71] Of the dance hall are of the bitches
[02:30.89] Who wish I'd hurry up and die
[02:35.94] But I'm immortal now, baby dolls
[02:39.93] I couldn't if I tried
[02:44.70] So I say
[02:47.10] "Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[02:50.02] I'm married to the hustle
[02:51.62] And now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
[02:55.86] And I'll never know another
[02:57.99] Pain hidden by the lipstick and lace (Lipstick and lace)
[03:02.24] Sequins are forever and now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
[03:08.08] Wouldn't have it any other way"
[03:11.80] Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[03:14.46] Wouldn't have it any other way
[03:17.65] Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[03:22.16] Hey Kitty
[03:23.76] Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[03:26.41] Now I make my money being pretty and witty
[03:29.59] Thank you for the lovely bouquet
[03:36.62] Thank you for an unforgettable night
[03:38.62] We will see you next time
[03:40.88] Give it up for the band
[03:44.60] And the dancers
[03:46.98] And of course, Sabrina
[03:48.84] I love you, Taylor
[03:50.44] That's our show
[03:51.24] We love you so much
[03:52.57] Goodnight
