Really Waltzing Composer(s): Peter Myers; Ronnie Cass Performer(s): Cliff Richard & Michael Sammes Singers
Cliff: 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?
Bass Voice (mock Austrian accent): I've got zee urge to vear short leather trousers And dance za vay Strauss-es made their mous-es
Cliff joins in (with mock accent): Give me some frau-ses dressed up in cute blouses Helping their spouses tie bells on their cows-es
Cliff (with accent): 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
Cliff & Full Chorus: 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!
