No. 14 - Act II Opening Chorus - "The Lancers, Fifth Figure"

MIDI File

Chorus: Number five at last!
Now don't forget it ends the set
So hurry through it fast
Yes, hurry through it fast
For though in lancers or stiff Quadrille
Smart Society finds variety
Valse, of course, is the fav'rite still
Valse is the fav'rite still!
Number five at last!
Now don't forget it ends the set
So hurry through it fast
Yes, hurry through it fast
For though in lancers or stiff Quadrille
Smart Society finds variety
Valse, of course, is the fav'rite still
Valse is the fav'rite still!
We can turn our thoughts with welcome end in sight
To the iced champagne and those refreshments light
Which so temptingly all weary souls invite
Yes, the heated and the thirsty ones essentially;
And with strange delight our contemplations run
On a hasty move when once the dance is done,
To an alcove cool with some agreeable one
With whom we want to chatter confidentially.
Number five at last!
Now don't forget it ends the set
So hurry through it fast
Yes, hurry through it fast
For though in lancers or stiff Quadrille
Smart Society finds variety
Valse, of course, is the fav'rite still
Valse is the fav'rite still!
Valse is the fav'rite still!
Valse is the fav'rite still!
