With You on My Arm Lyrics by Jerry Herman

La Cage Aux Folles (Original Cast Recording)

1983

[ALBIN, spoken]
I couldn't possibly take one tiny little step
[GEORGES, spoken]
With me you could...
[ALBIN, spoken]
No, I couldn't!
[GEORGES]
Life is a celebration with you on my arm
[ALBIN, spoken]
I'm too upset!
[GEORGES, spoken]
That's because you're not listening!
(sung)
Life is a celebration with you on my arm
It's worth the aggrevation with you on my arm
[ALBIN, spoken]
Well, you always did bounce back quicker than I
[GEORGES, spoken]
That's because I'm more limber!
[ALBIN, spoken]
You always were
[GEORGES]
Each time I face a morning that's boring and bland
With you it looks good
[ALBIN, spoken]
I can't dance!
[GEORGES]
You can!
With you it looks great
[ALBIN, spoken]
Do I have to?
[GEORGES]
If you want me!
With you it looks grand
[ALBIN, spoken]
Like the old days!
[GEORGES]
Aha!
[ALBIN, spoken]
Mm... aha!
[GEORGES]
On you it looks good
On you it looks great
On you it looks grand
[BOTH]
Somehow you've put a permanent star in my eye
Even the dead of Winter can feel like July
I found a combination that works like a charm:
[GEORGES]
It's suddenly... [kiss]
[ALBIN]
It's suddenly... ah!
[BOTH]
Whenever it's you...
Whenever it's you...
[GEORGES]
Follow me!
[BOTH]
Whenever it's you...
Whenever it's you...
Whenever it's you on my arm!
