You told me you'd love me
You told me you'd always be there
You told me again and again and again and again
It was a perfect life we shared
But you didn't show your love
You didn't show your love so fine
You didn't show your love so fine
And the bottom line
At the end of the day
Is you didn't show me your love
Like I showed you mine
You told me you'd hold me
You told me you'd love me
You told me you'd treat me like your queen
Build me a castle
Made out of love
Like nobody'd ever seen
But you didn't show your love
You didn't show your love so fine
And the bottom line
At the end of the day
Is you didn't show me your love
Like I showed you mine
So now I've reached the end
And you know that I did my very best
But your hollow empty promises
Are driving me insane
Now I'm done with you lying again
You didn't show your love
You didn't show your love so fine
And the bottom line
At the end of the day
Is you didn't show me your love
Like I showed you mine
And the bottom line
Is you didn't show your love
Thank you very much.
That brings me to my last song.
Aww.
Nice, lovely here.
It's really nice, actually.
I must say, you are a really lovely audience.
It can be quite frightening, this theatre,
because I think it's so new and the stage is so low,
but it's really lovely.
I hope you've enjoyed yourselves tonight
and enjoyed the music.
APPLAUSE
So, I'm going to do an old Bessie Smith song
and I was wondering if you would help me.
Will you help me?
Ready?
Great.
OK, it goes like this.
It's a lovely little song about murder.
Excuse me.
OK, here we go.
