Really Waltzing

Is...this...me here, really waltzing?

Is this me here, being so square?

Although I know this kind of mu-sic

Makes me sick and you sick

Still I'm aware...

Yeah, it's me here, really waltzing

To a Viennese one-two-three

And if you'll pardon me the simile

I'm a Romberg and Frim'l-y

How can this be me?

I've got zee urge to vear short leather trousers

And dance za vay Strauss-es made their mous-es

Give me some frau-ses dressed up in cute blouses

Helping their spouses tie bells on their cows-es

Oh...here I'm really waltzing

Though I shudder at the idea

And though I really should know better

Here am I in operetta

Really waltzing here

And...so...we're here, really waltzing

As we take our partners and bow

We say "a plague upon the houses of all the three Strausses"

But, all the same, we must kow-tow

To the rhythm, catchy rhythm

For the violins play and we've got to go with 'em

Yes, we're waltzing, really waltzing

Look at us, really waltzing...now!
