"The song is a reaction to Sally wanting to go back to the Kit Kat Klub while Cliff is trying to stop her. The Emcee is luring her in, but Cliff wants to take her ignorant, partying self away from Berlin. Cliff finally realizes that the world is falling apart, particularly in the Weimar Republic. Sally wants to pursue her "career," and can't stand the idea of being controlled by anything, unless it furthers her as a star."
