Dance The World Away Lyrics by Adrianna Hicks, Christian Borle, Original Broadway Cast of Some Like It Hot

Some Like It Hot (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2023

[SUGAR, spoken]
Dance with me, Kip
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
I'm afraid I have two right feet
[SUGAR, spoken]
Perfect, I have two left ones! I'll teach you, c'mere
Now, just put your body against mine, and sway
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
Look, Ma! I'm svaying!
[SUGAR]
When the world is dark and gloomy
And you can't face another day
Well then, just bring your arms closer to me
And let's dance the world away
When a millionaire's on breadlines
And there isn't a due you can pay
Darling, just turn your head from the headlines
And let's dance the world away
Let's build a new utopia
Where everything's as it should be
Yes, let's make an Eden in Greenland or Sweden!
Wherever you are is like heaven to me
When it seems there's just no winning
Take my word, it will all be okay
Every step starts a brand new beginning
So let's dance the world, let's dance the world away
(spoken)
You picked that up pretty quickly, I'm impressed
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
You know vhat? I think I'm getting ze hang of zis!
(singing)
When ze noise from politicians
Tries to lead all our hopes astray
Just elect only sving-time musicians
And let's dance the vorld avay
Though ve can't block out ze chatter
Ve can take to the parquet
To our feet, that chatter don't matter
So let's dance the vorld avay
[SUGAR & JOE]
Let's make our own oasis
And tell all our troubles ta-ta!
[SUGAR]
Darling, let's hit Nirvana
[JOE (as Kip)]
Or at least Tijuana!
[SUGAR & JOE]
As long as we're dancing
The world's Shangri-La!
[Dance break]
Let's dance the world away!
[Dance break]
[ENSEMBLE]
Let's dance the world
Let's dance the world away!
[Dance break]
[JOE (as Kip)]
I had two right feet zis morning
[SUGAR]
But now please let the music play
[SUGAR & JOE]
Because love waltzed in without warning
And it looks like it's here to stay
[JOE (as Kip)]
And so let's dance the world
[SUGAR & JOE]
Darling, let's dance the world
Away!
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
All zis svaying has made me dizzy
[SUGAR, spoken]
You'd better sit
Oh, Kip, let's take Hollywood by storm
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
I vould follow you anyvhere, Sugar
[SUGAR, spoken]
I can see straight into your heart
[JOE (as Kip), spoken]
Fade out
