lyrics

The Palace, The Lyceum, The Majestic
I've seen them all
Helen Hayes, Walter Kerr
Not to mention The Imperial
These days I've succumbed to the fact
Old age is one's worst enemy
These days I find I'm going grey
Both atop my head and tonally

I used to be beautiful, that was many years ago
I performed in musicals, although you might not think it so
Now I'm unusable and that's unusual

Scratching off lottery tickets
This is all that joy can bring
Put the piano up for sale
What good is ivory if I can't sing?
That's last call for tonight
I'm leaving, I beg your pardon
Find me tomorrow
Scalping tickets to Winter Garden

I used to be beautiful, that was many years ago
I performed in musicals, although you might not think it so
Now I'm unusable and that's unusual

Give us an encore, get back on the stage

I used to be beautiful
