I'll be brave and ask, "May I have this dance?"
With that very cute lady from France
We could do the Can-Can
Unless she issues a ban
Then I will just gaze, in a trance.

The orchestra struck up the last waltz
The lad said, "I don't care if it's schmaltz"
I want some romance
A shy little glance
I'll steal a kiss when the music halts.

I'll be brave and ask, "May I have this dance?"

The orchestra struck up The Last Waltz
The lad said ,"I don`t care if it is shmaltz,
I want some romance
A shy little glance

The orchestra struck up The Last Waltz
The lad said ,"I don`t care if it is shmaltz,
I want some romance,

How will this shy boy cope?
Will he just sit there and mope?
He wants to dance
Given the chance
Let`s hope all the girls don`t say "Nope"!

The orchestra struck up The Last Waltz
The lad said ,"I don't care if it is shmaltz

Back to WOODMOUSE
How will this shy boy cope?
Will he just sit there and mope?
He wants to dance
Given the chance

Will he retreat back into his shell?
Given his history it's hard to tell

He wants to dance
He’s in a trance
He’s hoping a girl will give him a chance
He didn’t even get a glance

Will he retreat back into his shell

How will this shy boy cope?
Will he just sit there and mope?
He wants to dance

How will this shy boy cope?
Will he just sit there and mope?

He fled to an island deserted
So around it at first he skirted
He then built a hut
But, got into a rut
And to his horror became introverted

How will this shy boy cope?
