Quiet Night (Quintet) (Something in the Air) Lyrics by William Gibson, Joe Raposo, The Premiere Cast of Rag Dolly

Rag Dolly 1984 Premiere Soundtrack

1984

[COMPANY]
MOONRISE, LIFTING, SOMETHING IN THE AIR
STARLIGHT, DRIFTING, SOMETHING IN THE AIR
COMETS, RAINBOWS, LIGHTNING IN THE SKY
WHERE THE WIND BLOWS THERE GO YOU AND I
SWEET BREEZE, SINGING, SOMETHING IN THE AIR
ONE CLEAR, SHINING, VIEW BEYOND COMPARE!
SOFTLY, GLIDING, TOWARDS THE BRINK OF DAWN
SOMETHING IN THE AIR, SAIL ON
[CLOUDS]
WE’RE SO EXCITED THERE’S SOMETHING NEW IN OUR PLACE HERE!
OH, WHAT A JOY!
AND WE’RE DELIGHTED TO WELCOME YOU TO OUR PLACE HERE!
BUT DEAR
YOU MUST BE CAREFUL THAT WHERE THIS BIG THING STICKS
OUT HERE
YOU'RE CLEAR
HAZARD TO FLIGHT
AND BUMPING ROUND IN THE NIGHT
YOU MIGHT DO DREADFUL DAMAGE TO US
[DOLLS]
SOFTLY, GLIDING, TOWARDS THE BRINK OF DAWN
SOMETHING IN THE AIR, SAIL ON
[MOON]
COME ON GET OUT OF MY SKY BUSTER!
CAN’T YOU SEE IT’S THE NIGHT?
[SUN]
HEY, WATCH IT
[MOON]
WHO EVER SAW YOU AT NIGHT, BUSTER!
WHY CAN’T YOU GET IT RIGHT?
[SUN]
NOW REALLY
YOU KNOW YOU’RE JUST A MERE REFLECTION OF ME?
SO, BUDDY, JUST BUZZ OFF
AND GET A JOB IN SOME OTHER GALAXY
[MOON]
YOU GOT SOME TRICKS THAT ARE PIPS, BUSTER
AND I'M GETTIN THE HOTS
[SUN]
NOW CALM DOWN
[MOON]
WAIT UNTIL THE ECLIPSE, BUSTER
YOU'LL GET LOTS MORE THAN SPOTS
[SUN]
THE NERVE!
YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT SOME MYSTIC
POW'R OVER MEN
BUT KID THEY ONLY WATCH YOU
TILL I'M THERE AGAIN
[CLOUDS]
THEY BROUGHT EXCITEMENT AND FLAIR
NOT TO MENTION A BOAT HERE
HOW WONDERFUL
HOW DID THEY GET IN THE AIR AND
HOW DOES IT FLOAT HERE?
HOW QUEER
WE CAN BE STORMY AT TIMES BUT
NOT WITH SUCH FRIENDS, NO
AND SO
WE'LL WEAR A BRIGHT SILVER LINING FOR YOU
[MARCELLA]
SO BEAUTIFUL, SO WONDERFUL
SOARING HIGH IN THE NIGHT!
SO MARVELOUS, MIRACULOUS
HOW CAN STARS BE SO BRIGHT?
COULD THIS BE THE HEAVEN THEY SAID WAS IN STORE?
WILL IT GO ON FOREVERMORE?
SO BEAUTIFUL, SO WONDERFUL
TONIGHT!
[SHOOTING STAR]
WOOSH! EAST! WOOSH! WEST! WATCH ME!
‘CAUSE I’M A SHOOTING STAR!
WOOSH! UP! WOOSH! BEST! UP HERE!
HEY, I’M A SHOOTING STAR!
WATCH ME FLASHING ‘CROSS THE SKY!
WHAT A GORGEOUS SIGHT AM I!
WOOSH! NORTH! WOOSH! SOUTH! LOOK MA!
BOY, I’M A SHOOTING STAR
WOOSH! UP! WOOSH! DOWN! LOOK, WORLD!
YOU SEE A SHOOTING STAR!
DON’T CALL ME A METEOR, WHAT A BORE!
I’M A SHOOTING STAR!
[instrumental]
[SHOOTING STAR]
I’M A SHOOTING STAR!
(Simultaneous)
[DOLLS]
SWEET BREEZE, SINGING, SOMETHING IN THE AIR
ONE CLEAR, SHINING, CLEAR BEYOND COMPARE!
SOFTLY, GLIDING, TOWARDS THE BRINK OF DAWN
