George Gershwin
Shall We Dance?
MILO:
Shall we dance?
Or keep on mourning?
Shall we dance?
And walk on air
Shall we give in?
To despair
Or shall we dance with never a care?
Life is short
We’re growing older
Let’s not be an also-ran
You’d better dance with lady
Dance little man
Dance whenever you can
(Spoken) Let’s go to the Ball de Bozart
JERRY:
(Spoken) What’s my part of the deal?
MILO:
(Spoken) Be nice to me and enjoy yourself
JERRY:
(Spoken) Are you sure that’s all?
MILO:
Drop that long face
C’mon have you fling!
Why keep nursing the blues?
If you want this
Old world on a string
Put on your dancing shoes
Stop wasting time
Put on your dancing shoes
Watch your spirits climb
DANCE BREAK
MILO:
Life is short
We’re growing older
Let’s not be an also-ran
You’d better dance with lady
Dance little man
Dance whenever you can
