Songtext Dancing Barbra Streisand

Dancing

Dolly [speaking]:
Put your hand on her waist and stand
With her right in your left hand
And one and one two three, ah! one two three,
Oh, no, this one...and one two three
One two three

Cornelius [speaking]:
Look Im dancing!
Well, I was.

Dolly [speaking]:
Of course you were, mr. hackl!
[singing]
Take the someone whose arms youre in
Hold onto her tight and spin
And one two three, one two three, one two three

Cornelius:
Look, Im dancing!

Dolly:
Come here.
Turn around and turn around, try floating through the air
Cant you be a little more aesthetic?

Cornelius:
Dont you think my dancing has a polish and a flair?

Dolly:
The word I think Id use is athletic!

Cornelius:
Well my heart is about to burst
My head is about to pop
And now that Im dancing who cares if I ever stop!

Dolly:
Thats wonderful, mr. hackl!

Cornelius:
...look, everybody! i, cornelius hackl...sport
...Im dancing!

Dolly:
Youre next, mr. tucker!
Glide and step and then step and glide

Barnaby:
And everyone stand aside!

Dolly:
Oh, not yet mr. tucker! one, two, three...
One, two, three, ah!

Cornelius
Look, hes dancing!
Dolly
I think hes phenomenal!
You could learn to polka if you worked a week or so
Or the tango filled with passion seething

Barnaby:
I might join the chorus of the castle garden show

Dolly:
Whatever you do, mr. tucker, kee-keep breathing

All three:
For my heart is about to burst
My head is about to pop
And now that were dancing who cares if we ever stop!

All:
Make the music weave a spell
Whirl away your worry
Things look almost twice as well
When youre slightly blurry
As around and around you go
Your spirits will hit the top
And now that were dancing
Who cares if we ever stop
One-two-three
One-two-three
One-two
And now that were dancing
Who cares if we ever stop!
