ACT III - Lord Playne's House, Farnham Towers.
No. 16 - Act III Opening Chorus
| Men: | Come away, have one more waltz with us now; Don't you say you're feeling tired, anyhow! |
| Girls: | We can keep it up yet, 'Tisn't time to sup yet, And the band is playing, Now for one dance more! |
| Men: | At a ball, why should we break off the fun? Hang it all! We feel we've only begun! |
| Girls: | Don't you get excited, We are quite delighted To be gaily swaying On a perfect floor! |
| All: | Waltz on till dawn with its glimmer Makes all the lights dimmer, And smiles on our laughter! A fast dance for the last dance, Then for luck have another turn after! Or if a couple should stray out And possibly stay out To chatter, no matter! We'll let them, and forget them, Don't you know? Come away, have one more waltz with us now; Don't you say you're feeling tired, anyhow! We can keep it up yet, 'Tisn't time to sup yet, And the band is playing, Now for one dance more! |
| Girls: | This is the ball of the season, With reason we say; No other dance is so jolly As one with Lady Dolly; Simply the cream of the season, So bright and chic and gay, We should be glad if she just had Such a one ev'ry day! |
| All: | This is the ball of the season, With reason we say; No other dance is so jolly As one with Lady Dolly; Simply the cream of the season, So bright and chic and gay, We should be glad if she just had One of such parties a day! |
