Bully:
I'd like to dance at your wedding,
Dance all night long,
Always dancing with just one person --
Only with you.
We'll glide and spin,
And look into one another's eyes
And then you can go with me --
Only with me.
Other men, they all envy me.
And that's explainable,
Because I am the bridegroom.
I'd like to dance at your wedding,
Dance all night long,
Always dancing with just one person --
Only with you.
Chorus:
Mr. Neumann, so shy,
Never went to a ball.
He said, quite soberly:
Bully:
"Dances like that are not for me."
Chorus:
Then he saw Lisa,
As lovely as a dream.1
And as soon as he saw her,
He shouted quite spontaneously:
Bully:
I'd like to dance at your wedding,
Dance all through a totally crazy-long night.
Chorus:
Only with you.
Only with you.
I'd like to dance at your wedding,
Dance all night long,
Always dancing with just one person --
Only with you.
Bully:
We'll glide and spin,
And look into one another's eyes.
And then you can go --
Only with me.
I'd like to dance at your wedding --
Only with you.
