At the Ballet (Glee Cast Version) - Glee Cast

Daddy always thought that he married beneath him.

That's what he said, that's what he said.

When he proposed he informed my mother

He was probably her very last chance.

And though she was twenty-two,

Though she was twenty-two,

Though she was twenty-two,

She married him.

Life with my dad wasn't ever a picnic

More like a "Come as you are."

When I was five I remember my mother

Dug earrings out of the car

I knew they weren't hers, But it wasn't

Something you'd want to discuss.

He wasn't warm.

Well, not to her.

Well, not to us

But

Everything was beautiful at the ballet.

Graceful men lift lovely girls in white.

Yes,

Everything was beautiful at ballet.

Hey!

I was happy... at the ballet.

That's why I started ballet class...

Up a steep and very narrow stairway.

To the voice like a metronome.

Up a steep and very narrow stairway.

It wasn't paradise...

It wasn't paradise...

It wasn't paradise...

But it was home.

Mother always said I'd be very attractive

When I grew up, when I grew up.

"Diff'rent," she said, "With a special something

And a very, very personal flair."

And though I was eight or nine,

Though I was eight or nine,

Though I was eight or nine,

I hated her.

Now,

"Diff'rent" is nice, but it sure isn't pretty.

"Pretty" is what it's about.

I never met anyone who was "diff'rent"

Who couldn't figure that out.

So beautiful I'd never lived to see.

But it was clear,

If not to her,

Well, then... to me...

That ...

Everyone is beautiful at the ballet.

Every prince has got to have his swan.

Yes,

Everyone is beautiful at the ballet.

Hey!...

I was pretty...

At the ballet

I was born to save their marriage

but when my father came to pick my mother up

at the hospital

he said, "Well, I thought this was going to help.

but I guess not..."

A few months later,he left,and never came back

Anyway, I had this fantastic fantasy life.

I used to dance around the living room

with my arms up like this

My fantasy was that I was an Indian Chief...

And he'd say to me,

"Maggie, do you wanna dance?"

And I'd say, "Daddy, I would love to dance!"

Doo-doo-doo-doo

But it was clear...

Doo-doo-doo

When he proposed...

Doo-doo-doo

That I was born to help their marriage and when

Doo-doo-doo-doo

That's what he said...

Doo-doo-doo

That's what she said...

Doo-doo-doo

I used to dance around the living room...

Doo-doo-doo-doo

He wasn't warm...

Doo-doo-doo

Not to her...

It was an Indian chief and he'd say:

"Maggie, do you wanna dance?"

And I'd say, "Daddy, I would love to..."

Everything was beautiful at the ballet,

Raise your arms and someone's always there.

Yes, everything was beautiful at the ballet,

At the ballet,

At the ballet!!!

Yes everything was beautiful at the ballet.

HEY!...

I was pretty...

I was happy...

"I would love to..."

At...the...ballet.
