Lyrics Really Waltzing - Cliff Richard, The Shadows

Really Waltzing

Is… this… me here, really waltzing?\nIs this me here, being so square?\nAlthough I know this kind of mu-sic\nMakes me sick and you sick\nStill I’m aware…\nYeah, it’s me here, really waltzing\nTo a Viennese one-two-three\nAnd if you’ll pardon me the simile\nI’m a Romberg and Frim’l-y (??)\nHow can this be me?\nBASS VOICE (mock Austrian accent):\nI’ve got zee urge to vear short leather trousers\nAnd dance za vay Strauss-es made their mous-es\nCLIFF JOINS IN (with mock accent):\nGive me some frau-ses dressed up in cute blouses\nHelping their spouses tie bells on their cows-es\nCLIFF (with accent):\nOh… here I’m really waltzing\nThough I shudder at the idea\nAnd though I really should know better\nHere am I in operetta\nReally waltzing here\nCLIFF & FULL And… so… we’re here, really waltzing\nAs we take our partners and bow\nWe say «a plague upon the houses of all the three Strausses»\nBut, all the same, we must kow-tow\nTo the rhythm, catchy rhythm\nFor the violins play and we’ve got to go with 'em\nYes, we’re waltzing, really waltzing\nLook at us, really waltzing… now!
