[00:00.50] Just like Cain and Abel
[00:02.65] You pulled a sneak attack
[00:05.10] I thought that we were brothers
[00:07.75] Then you stabbed me in the back
[00:11.50] Betrayed!
[00:15.75] Oh boy, I'm so betrayed
[00:20.15] Like Samson and Delilah
[00:21.65] Your love began to fade
[00:23.10] I'm crying in the hoosegow
[00:24.45] You're in Rio getting laid
[00:25.85] Betrayed!
[00:28.05] Let's face it, I'm betrayed
[00:32.15] Boy, have I been taken
[00:38.00] Oy, I'm so forsaken
[00:42.30] I should have seen what came to pass
[00:43.80] I should have known to watch my ass
[00:45.45] I feel like Othello
[00:46.90] Everything is lost
[00:48.10] Leo is Iago
[00:49.81] Max is double-crossed
[00:51.30] I'm so dismayed
[00:53.20] Did I mention I'm betrayed?
[00:55.55] Now I'm about to go to jail
[00:57.20] There's no one who will pay my bail
[00:58.75] I have no one who I can cry to
[01:00.15] No one I can say goodbye to
[01:03.15] I'm drowning! I'm drowning!
[01:07.20] I'm drowning here!
[01:09.15] I'm going down for the last time.
[01:11.35] I, I, I see my whole life flashing before my eyes.
[01:18.35] I see a weathered old farmhouse with a white picket fence.
[01:24.05] I'm running through fields of alfalfa with my collie, Rex
[01:28.74] No, Rex, not on the alfalfa.
[01:31.18] And, and I see my mother.
[01:36.25] I see mama standing on the back porch.
[01:39.77] In a worn but clean gingham gown.
[01:43.25] And I hear my mama calling out to me.
[01:46.45] "Alvin, don't forget your chores
[01:50.10] The wood needs a-cordin'
[01:51.60] And the cows need a-milkin', Alvin! Alvin!"
[01:57.66] Wait a minute, my name's not Alvin.
[02:01.37] That's not my life.
[02:04.02] Somebody else's life is flashing before my eyes.
[02:07.85] I'm not a hillbilly, I grew up in the Bronx.
[02:11.21] Leo's taken everything, even my past.
[02:15.31] My past's a dying ember
[02:21.29] But wait, now I remember
[02:26.10] How did it begin?
[02:27.30] He walked into my office with his cockamamie scheme
[02:30.30] "You can make more money with a flop than with a hit"
[02:33.05] "We can do it, we can do it"
[02:35.65] "I can't do it"
[02:36.65] "We can do it"
[02:37.80] "I can't do it
[02:39.00] Goodbye Max"
[02:40.62] "Lord, I want that money"
[02:42.03] "I'm back, Max"
[02:43.21] "Come on, Leo, we can do it"
[02:44.80] Step one, find the play
[02:47.10] See it, swirl it, touch it, kiss it
[02:48.50] Hello, Mister Liebkind
[02:49.80] "Guten Tag, hop clop"
[02:50.70] "Guten Tag, hop clop"
[02:51.60] Adolf Elizabeth Hitler
[02:53.55] "Guten Tag, hop clop"
[02:54.40] "Guten Tag, hop clop"
[02:55.17] Step two, hire the director
[02:56.85] "Keep it gay, keep it gay, keep it..."
[02:58.85] Two-three, kick, turn, turn, turn, kick, turn
[03:01.05] Ulla Woo-wah-wee-wow-wah-wah-wee
[03:03.15] Step three, raise the money
[03:05.35] "Along came Bialy!"
[03:07.80] Step four, hire all the actors
[03:10.35] "A wandering minstrel I, a think of shreds..."
[03:12.70] Next!
[03:13.50] The little wooden boy
[03:15.15] Next!
[03:15.75] That's our Hitler!
[03:17.40] "Opening night"
[03:18.95] Good luck, good luck, good luck
[03:20.41] "Break a leg," "I broke my leg"
[03:22.80] "Springtime for Hitler and Germany"
[03:25.10] A surprise smash
[03:26.15] "Springtime for Hitler and Germany"
[03:28.40] It'll run for years
[03:29.60] "Where did we go right?
[03:31.00] Where did we go right?"
[03:32.80] Gimme those books
[03:33.70] Fat, fat, fatty
[03:34.45] Gimme those books
[03:35.30] Fat, fat, fatty
[03:36.20] Books, fat
[03:37.10] Books, fat
[03:37.78] Books, fat
[03:38.60] Books, fat
[03:39.50] "Lousy fruit"
[03:40.20] "Kill the actors"
[03:41.20] "You ever eat with one?!"
[03:42.80] Then you ran to Rio and you're safely out of reach
[03:45.80] I'm behind these bars
[03:47.43] You're banging Ulla on the beach
[03:52.40] Just like Julius Caesar was betrayed by Brutus
[03:58.70] Who'd think an accountant would turn out to be my Judas
[04:02.15] I'm so dismayed
[04:04.90] Is this how I'm repaid?
[04:09.40] To be...
[04:11.27] Betrayed!
[04:19.35] Betrayed!
