Dancing

Lyrics

[DOLLY, spoken] Put your hand on her waist and stand With her right in your left hand And one... This one. And one, two, three... Ah! And one, two, three... Oh no, this one. And one, two, three, one, two, three... [CORNELIUS, spoken] Look! I'm dancing! (falls) Well, I was! [DOLLY, spoken] Of course you were, Mr. Hackle! (sung) Take the someone whose arms you're in Hold onto her tight and spin (ha-ha) And one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three... [CORNELIUS, spoken] Look! I'm dancing! (overturnes a heap of boxes) [DOLLY, spoken] Ah! Come here! (sung) Turn around and turn around, try floating through the air Can't you be a little more aesthetic? [CORNELIUS] Don't you think my dancing has a polish and a flair? [DOLLY, spoken] The word I think I'd use is athletic [CORNELIUS] Well, my heart is about to burst My head is about to pop And now that I'm dancing who cares if I ever stop? [DOLLY, spoken] That's wonderful [CORNELIUS, spoken] Look everybody! I, Cornelius Hackl, sport, I'm dancing! [DOLLY, spoken] You're next, Mr. Tucker [BARNABY] Oh! (falls) [DOLLY] Glide and step, and then step And glide [BARNABY, spoken] And everyone stand aside! [DOLLY, spoken] Oh, not... not yet, Mr. Tucker. It's one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three, one... [CORNELIUS, spoken] Look! He's dancing! [DOLLY, spoken] I think he's holdin' out on us (sung) You could learn to polka if you worked a week of so Or the tango filled with passion seething [BARNABY] I might join the chorus of the Castle Garden show [DOLLY, spoken] Whatever you do, Mr. Tucker, keep-keep breathing! [DOLLY, CORNELIUS, & BARNABY] For my heart is about to burst My head is about to pop And now that we're dancing who cares if we ever stop? [DOLLY] Oh! [Dance Interlude] [IRENE] When there's someone you hardly know And wish you were closer to Remember that he can be near to you while you're dancing [CORNELIUS] Though you've only just said hello She's suddenly someone who Can make all your daydreams appear to you while you're dancing [ALL] Let the music weave a spell Whirl away your worry Things look almost twice as well When they're slightly blurry As around and around you go Your spirits will hit the top And now that we're dancing who cared if we ever stop? One, two, three, one, two, three One, two, three, one, two, three And now that we're dancing who cared if we ever stop?
