There's some as don't care
When they put down a plate
There's a sound
Not with me
When they move a chair
It'll scr*pe with a grate
On the ground
Not with me
I will have my hand right
When I place a glass
Notice how I stand right
As customers pass
Serve a demitass
With a gesture so gentile
Or do it again 'til
It's near oriental
Da da da da dum dum
It's an art
It's an art
To be a fine waitress
To see that you pleasure each guest
There's a twist
To my wrist
If I let a fork drop
Or cut up a porkchop
Or serve a New York chop
It all needs be stylish and smart
That's what makes it an art
I remember one day
As I do now and then I had shakes
And down I went
There with my tray
Full of seven prime tenderloin steaks
And down I went
But I kept my poise
Not one guest heard me fall
Never made a noise
Not one noise food and all
If you have to crawl
You give 'em what they like
You carry your tray like
It's almost ballet-like
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
It's an art
It's an art
To be a fine waitress
Each evening I treasure the test
Though my chef
May be deaf
I stay diplomatic
If I give him static
He might burn the haddock
Or put too much salt in a tart
Even that is an art
Tips? HA!
Tips are important
For people like captains and barmen
For them it's a tips, see?
For me, I'm a gypsy
Just toss me a coin
And I suddenly feel like I'm Carmen
So on through the ulcer
The backache
The hot, sweaty feet
On you go
Through, "Is your knife dull, sir?"
And, "Madam wants WHAT whith her meat?"
On you go
Two AM approches
The curtains decsend
There among the roaches
My act's at an end
Every night I tend
To find myself crying
There's no work so trying
Or so satisfying
I tell everybody that I'm a waitress and I'm proud.
Somebody comes up to me and says, "Hey you're terrific.
How come you're just a waitress?" Ya know what I say to them?
I say, "Why? Don't you think you deserve to be dserved by me?"
It's an art

Lady, let's go
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
THERE'S SOME AS DON'T CARE
WHEN THEY PUT DOWN THE PLATE, THERE'S A SOUND
NOT WITH ME
WHEN THEY MOVE A CHAIR
IT WILL SCRAPE WITH A GRATE ON THE GROUND
NOT WITH ME
I WILL HAVE MY HAND RIGHT WHEN I PLACE A GLASS
NOTICE HOW I STAND RIGHT AS CUSTOMERS PASS
SERVE A DEMI-TASSE WITH A GESTURE SO GENTLE
OR DO IT AGAIN TILL
IT'S NEAR ORIENTAL ...
(SHE hums a snatch of "Un Bel Di" from "Madame Butterfly")
IT'S AN ART, IT'S AN ART
TO BE A FINE WAITRESS
TO SEE THAT YOU PLEASURE EACH GUEST
THERE'S A TWIST TO MY WRIST
WHEN I BRING YOUR STEAK IN
AND WATCH HOW I TAKE IN
YOUR LIVER AND BACON
IT ALL WILL BE STYLISH AND SMART
THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT AN ART ...
I REMEMBER ONE DAY
AS I DO NOW AND THEN, I HAD SHAKES
AND DOWN I WENT
THERE WITH MY TRAY
FULL OF COFFEES AND CORDIALS AND CAKES
DOWN I WENT
BUT I KEPT MY POISE -- NOT ONE GUEST HEARD ME FALL
NEVER MADE A NOISE, NOT ONE NOISE, FOOD AND ALL
IF YOU HAVE TO CRAWL, YOU GIVE 'EM WHAT THEY LIKE
YOU CARRY YOUR TRAY LIKE
IT'S ALMOST BALLET-LIKE
(SHE hums a snatch of "Swan Lake" )
IT'S AN ART, IT'S AN ART
TO BE A FINE WAITRESS
EACH EVENING I TREASURE THE TEST
LIKE TONIGHT WAS A FIGHT
'CAUSE THEY HIRED THIS BUSBOY
THIS CLOTHES-ALL-A-MUSS-BOY
AND GUESTS HEARD HIM CUSS -- BOY,
DID WE HAVE A QUICK "HEART-TO-HEART"!
EVEN THAT WAS AN ART ...
TIPS! HA!
TIPS ARE IMPORTANT TO PEOPLE LIKE CAPTAINS AND BARMEN
FOR THEM, IT'S A TIP, SEE?
FOR ME, I'M A GYPSY
JUST TOSS ME A COIN AND I SUDDENLY FEEL LIKE I'M
CARMEN!
SO ON THROUGH THE ULCER
THE BACKACHE, THE HOT SWEATY FEET
ON YOU GO
THROUGH IS YOUR KNIFE DULL SIR?
AND MADAM WANTS WHAT WITH HER MEAT?
ON YOU GO
TWO A.M. APPROACHES, THE CURTAINS DESCEND
THERE AMONG THE ROACHES, MY ACT'S AT AN END
EVERY NIGHT I TEND TO FIND MYSELF CRYING
THERE'S NO WORK SO TRYING
OR SO SATISFYING ...
I tell everyone I'm a waitress and I'm proud. When somebody says to me, "Hey, you're terrific! How come you're just a waitress?", know what I say to them? I say, "Why? Don't you think you deserve to be served by me?"
.
IT'S AN ART
IT'S AN ART
TO BE A GREAT WAITRESS
TO DO WITHOUT LEISURE OR REST
SO I ZOOM
THROUGH THE ROOM
WITH A FLAIR NO ONE ELSE HAS
AN AIR NO ONE ELSE HAS
I SWEAR NO ONE ELSE HAS
MY LILT
WHEN I SAY
A LA CARTE...
YOU CAN SEE IT GIVES ME A GLOW
EVERY TIME I PROVE
I'M A PRO
