It is Copacabana, one of Barry Manilow's masterpieces
Every time I hear the familiar COPACABANA.--an exciting and passionate new musical, a story about love and romance, my heart The swinging nightclub scene of 1940.
From this exotic, far-off new world, old-fashioned love, jealousy, and murder, the lives of Lola, Tony and Rico each tangle Unfolding, dazzling costumes, spectacular sets and sensational dance. Blood and gunshot wounds
This copacabana is one of Barry Manilow's masterpieces. Although it is beautiful and light, the lyrics tell a story. Heartbreaking love story. Barry Manilow, London Fashion Magazine calls him one of the greatest pop musicians of this era. Manilow is one of the pioneers who brought Latin culture to the United States. He entered the international music scene with a soft love song "Mandy", and his voice is gentle, Deep, "the greatest singer of the golden age of big bands", the song won a 1978 Grammy Award and appeared in the second season of "Madagascar 2". In episode 24, Rachel also had the courage to lead the audience to sing this song at Barry and Mindy's wedding, allowing her to prove herself again.
The main idea of ??the lyrics
COPACABANA(AT THE COPA)
(B.Manilow,B.Sussman,J.Feldman)
Her name is Lola
Her name is Lola
She was a showgirl
She was a showgirl
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
The head is decorated with yellow feathers, the skirt is open and sexy
She would merengue and do the cha-cha
She dances Merengue (a Central American social dance) and cha cha
But while she tried to be a star
In those days when she tried to be a star
p>
Tony always tended bar
Tony always worked in the bar for her
Across the crowded floor
Across the crowded dance floor
He worked from 8 'til 4
He worked from 8 pm to 4 am
They were young and they had each other
They They are all still young and they have each other
Who can ask for more
Who can ask for anything
At the Copa,Copacabana
At the Copa, Copacabana
The hottest spot north of Havana
The hottest spot north of Havana
At the Copa,Copacabana
At the Copa, Copacabana
Music and passion were always in fashion
At the Copa …
In Copa
They fell in love
They fell in love
His name was Rico
His name is Rico
He wore a diamond
He wore a big diamond ring
He was escorted to his chair
He and his men came to the table they had booked in a rush of people
He saw Lola dancing there
He saw Lola dancing there
And when she finished
She finished dancing
He called her over
He called her over
But Rico went a bit to far
But he went a little too far
Tony sailed across the bar
Tony sailed across the bar after hearing the news
And then the punches flew and chair were smashed in two
The punches flew and the chair was smashed to pieces
There was blood and a single gun shot
A gunshot , blood splattered
But just who shot who
Who shot who?
At the Copa,Copacabana
At the
Copa, Copacabana
The hottest spot north of Havana
The most prosperous place north of Havana
At the Copa,Copacabana

She lost her love
She lost her lover
Her name is Lola
< p>Her name was LauraShe was a showgirl
She was a showgirl
But that was 30 years ago
But This was 30 years ago
when they used to have a show
This used to be a show
Now it's a disco
< p>Now it’s a discoBut not for Lola
This is no longer Lola’s world
Still in the dress she used to wear
p>She is still wearing the costume from her previous performance
Faded feathers in her hair
The feathers on her head have faded
She sits there so refined
She sat elegantly alone in a corner
And drinks herself half-blind
Drinking half-blind
She lost her youth and she lost her tony
Now she's lost her mind
Now she's lost her mind
< p>At the Copa,CopacabanaAt Copa, Copacabana
The hottest spot north of Havana

Full of fashion Music and Passion
