originally performed by liza minneli in the musical "cabaret"
(victoria´s song for which she sang to audition for the spice girls)
you have to understand the way i am, mein herr
a tiger is a tiger, not a lamb, mein herr
you´ll never turn the vinegar to jam, mein herr
so i do...
what i do...
when i´m through...
then i´m through...
and i´m through...
toodle-oo!
bye-bye, mein lieber herr
farewell, mein lieber herr
it was a fine affair
but now it´s over
and though i used to care
i need the open air
you´re better off without me, mein herr
don´t dab your eye, mein herr
or wonder why, mein herr
i´ve always told you i was a rover
you mustn´t knit your brow
you should have known by now
you´d every cause to doubt me, mein herr
the continent of europe is so wide, mein herr
not only up and down, but side to side, mein herr
i couldn´t ever cross it if i tried, mein herr
so i do...
what i can...
inch by inch...
step by step...
mile by mile...
man by man
bye-bye, mein lieber herr
farewell, mein lieber herr
it was a fine affair
but now it´s over
and though i used to care
i need the open air
you´re better off without me, mein herr
don´t dab your eye, mein herr
or wonder why, mein herr
i´ve always told you i was a rover
you mustn´t knit your brow
you should have known by now
you´d every cause to doubt me, mein herr
auf wiedersehen... bye bye mein herr!
