We Are What We Are Lyrics

[GEORGES, spoken]
Bon soir! Bon soir! Here we are at the pride of Saint Tropez
The envy of the cabaret world, the jewel of the Riviera! Only
Champagne from now to the finale. Monsieur-Dames, I beg
You, open your eyes. You have arrived at "LA CAGE AUX FOLLES"

[LES CAGELLES]
We are what we are
And what we are is an illusion
We love how it feels
Putting on heels, causing confusion
We face life though it's sometimes sweet and sometimes bitter;
Face life, with a little guts and lots of glitter
Look under our frocks: Girdles and jocks
Proving we are what we are!

We are what we are
Half a brassiere, half a suspender
Half real and half fluff
You'll find it tough guessing our gender
So just [whistle]
If we please you that's the way to show us
Just [whistle]
'Cause you'll love us once you get to know us
Look under our glitz: Muscles and tits
Proving we are what we are

[INTERLUDE - TAPS]

Aaah...Un! Deux! Trois! Quatre! Cinq! Six! Sept! Huit!
Ah, Saint Tropez
Aaah!

So just [whistle]
If we please you that's the way to show us
Just [whistle]
'Cause you'll love us once you get to know us
We face life though it's sometimes sweet and sometimes bitter
Face life, with a little guts and lots of glitter
Look under our frocks: Girdles and jocks
Proving we are what we are!
Yeow!
