The Waltz Continues

Oh, Frances, just stop where you are

Will you listen to us?

We're supposed to be friends

So how come that each time we talk

It ends up like this?

You say you're right

And I say you're wrong

'Cause I'm sure I'm right

And you say my logic is totally gone

And the waltz continues

Oh, Frances, be still for a while

And I swear I won't say a word

Come on now, crack a smile

You really have to laugh

This is just so absurd

Put on your coat

There's a fair come to town

I'll pay the man

And we'll spend the day on the merry-go-round

And the waltz continues

Our words light the blue papers

Stand back, fireworks

Spark and crack

That's why I keep coming back

I keep coming back

My dear Frances, deep down you know

We're both right

It's the world that's insane

It's just dot to dot

The have to have nots

But the men with the pencils

Have sawdust for brains

It's sad and it's funny

It's a joy and it's a groan

Let's get some beer and go to the graveyard

And laugh at the bones

And the waltz continues

And the waltz continues

And the waltz continues
