There It Is Again




 * (Billy.) Fiddlers are playing and dancers are swaying in close embrace,
 * (Girls.) Close embrace.
 * (Billy.) Bright eyes are yearning and soft fire is burning in each fair face.
 * (Girls.) Each fair face.


 * (Billy.) But though they're comely, you stand around glumly
 * With gloom that is utter and stare at them dumbly.


 * There it is again
 * There it is again
 * It's the tune that you adore,
 * That you've danced before on the ballroom floor


 * There it is again,
 * And it fills you with despair.
 * For the orchestra's playing your favorite dance
 * And your favorite girl's not there.


 * (Sally.) You miss her sadly for you love her madly But never mind,
 * (Girls.) Never mind.
 * (Sally.) Seek consolation that recommendation Is wise you'll find.
 * (Girls.) Wise you'll find.


 * (Sally.) As you can't get her, don't stop to reget her,
 * But take someone else you will find it much better.


 * There it is again
 * There it is again
 * She's not there whom you adore,
 * But there's plenty more on the ballroom floor


 * There it is again,
 * There's no need for you to care.
 * For the orchestra's playing your favorite dance
 * And a lot of nice girl's [sic] are there.
