"Life is a very rough and tumble
For a humble
Diseuse
One can betray one's troubles never
Whatever
Occurs
Night after night
Have to look bright
Whether you're well or ill
People must laugh their fill
You mustn't sleep
Till dawn comes creep-
Ing. Though I never really grumble
Life's a jumble
Indeed
And in my efforts to succeed
I've had to formulate a creed

I believe in doing what I can
In crying when I must
In laughing when I choose
Hey ho, if love were all
I should be lonely
I believe the more you love a man
The more you give your trust
The more you're bound to lose
Although when shadows fall
I think if only
Somebody splendid really needed me
Someone affectionate and dear
Cares would be ended if I knew that he
Wanted to have me near
But I believe that since my life began
The most I've had is just
A talent to amuse
Hey ho, if love were all

Though life buffets me obscenely
It serenely
Goes on
Although I question its conclusion
Illusion
Is gone
Frequently I
Put a bit by
Safe for a rainy day
Nobody here can say
To what, indeed
The years are lead-
Ing. Fate may often treat me meanly
But I keenly
Pursue
A little mirage in the blue
Determination helps me through"
