Zidler:
Another hero
Another mindless crime
Behind the curtain
In the pantomime
On and on
Does anybody know what we are living for?

Zidler & Women:
Whatever happened?
We leave it all to chance
Another heartache
Another failed romance
On and on
Does anybody know what we are living for?

Zidler:
The show must go on
The show must go on
Outside the dawn is breaking
On the stage
That holds our final destiny...

Zidler & Women:
The show must go on
The show must go on

Satine:
Inside my heart is breaking
My makeup may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Zidler:
The show must go on
The show must go on

Woman:
Ohhhh!

Satine:
I'll top the bill
I'll earn the kill
I have to find the will to carry. . .

Zidler & Satine:
On with the
On with the
On with the show

Zidler:
On with the show!
On with the show!
The show must go on
