A bird in a gilded cage

(arthur j. lamb and harry von tilzer)

The ballroom was filled with fashion's throng

It shone with a thousand lights;

And there was a woman who passed along

The fairest of all the sights.

A girl to her lover then softly sighed

"there's riches at her command."

"but she married for wealth not for love" he cried!

"though she lives in a mansion grand."

Cho: "she's only a bird in a gilded cage

a beautiful sight to see.

you may think she's happy and free from care

she's not though she seems to be.

'tis sad when you think of her wasted life

for youth cannot mate with age;

and her beauty was sold for an old man's gold

she's a bird in a gilded cage."

I stood in a churchyard just at eve

When sunset adorned the west;

And looked at the people who'd come to grieve

For loved ones now laid at rcst.

A tall marble monument marked the grave

Of one who'd been fashion's queen;

And i thought "she is happier here at rest

Than to have people say when seen: "
