You and I, us together.
Yes, dancing forever and forever.
Round and round till the break of day
Candles glow, fiddles play
Why not be wild if we feel that way
Reckless and terribly gay
Round and round neath a magic spell
Velvet gown, pink lapel
Life is a colorful carousel
Reckless and terribly gay
I'm ready any time if you take me
I'm ready to go
So show the way to me
I will try to be ready to go
I seem to see Venice, we're on a lagoon
A gondolier's crooning a gondola tune
The air makes your hair billow blue in the moon
I could swoon!
You're so blue in the moon
Oh, look at the peasants.
They're lighting candle on?
No, they're lighting torches.
Yes, see, they started burning the palaces.
Oh, there goes the dove.
Howdy, Maria and Jane.
Oh, what fun. I adore pyrotechnics.
Oh, that man. Look out, he's burning.
My God, he's on fire.
Keep on dancing.
But he's burning.
Just put up the mask and it's pretty.
Help!
Oh, isn't he beautiful?
He's all sort of orange, red-orange.
That's one of my favorite colors.
Help!
You look lovely.
We'll just dance
We'll kick up our heels to music and dance
Until my head reels with music
Just like the lovely, beautiful man
Who will know his lady dance
All we'll do is just dance
All we'll do is just dance
All we'll do is just
Whee! I'm exhausted.
But you can't be.
The evening's just started.
Round and round till the break of day
Candles go, fiddles play
Why not be wild if we feel that way
Reckless and terribly gay
I'm ready anytime
We're so gay
Simply I'm ready to go
So show the way to me
I will try to be ready to go
I seem to see Athens, it's terribly chic
Atop the Acropolis, it's terribly Greek
There's Venus, Adonis, and us cheek to cheek
Oh, how chic!
To be Greek, cheek to cheek
Observe the friendly natives.
La, how gay!
Look, dear, they're beating a monkey.
Isn't that fun?
I wonder why anyone should be beating a monkey.
Oh, no, that's it.
It's not a monkey at all.
It's a man dressed in a monkey suit.
Oh, that man, they've hurt him.
Put up the mask.
He's wounded.
The mask, the mask.
Help!
Oh, isn't that cute?
They're beating a man in a monkey suit.
It's a show.
La, how jolly!
Don't stop.
It's charming.
Don't stop.
Help!
That's it.
Rhyme some more.
We'll just dance
We'll kick up our heels to music and dance
Until my head reels with music just like a lovely reel
Though that's all we'll do, it's really dance
All we'll do is just dance
All we'll do is just dance
All we'll do is just
Couldn't we sit this one out?
Ridiculous, when there's music to be danced to.
Play Gypsies!
Round and round is a magic spell
Velvet gown, pink lapel
White as a colourful carousel
Rackers are terribly gay
Anytime, I'm ready to go
We'll be, we'll be ready to go
We'll be in Benghazi or maybe Bombay
I understand Inja is terribly gay
The natives assemble on feast day and play
With their snakes?
Yes!
What a racket it makes!
Oh, I think I'm going to love Inja.
Such a big population.
I adore crowds.
Oh, look, there's a faker.
Hi, faker.
Everybody, have a shake.
See, he's there with all his assistants.
They all know yogi.
It's just loads of fun.
Oh, look, there's a young one.
They're putting him down on some nails.
If he fails, he'll be cut to bits by those nails.
Help!
Somebody help him, he's bleeding.
Mask! Mask! Mask!
Aw, go on, sit down harder.
He's a sissy.
I don't believe he's a real faker.
They never complain.
He's a fake faker.
Help!
Fake?
We'll just dance.
Dance! Dance! Dance!
We'll pick up our heels to music and dance.
Dance! Dance! Dance!
Until my head hears the music,
Just like a lovely, real romance.
Dance! Dance! Dance!
When we're new and dating,
I can see the fringes.
All we'll do is just dance.
Dance! Dance! Dance!
All we'll do is just dance.
Dance! Dance! Dance!
All we'll do is just round and round in a magic spell.
All we'll do is just...
All we'll do...
Is just...
All we'll do is just dance.
