(Opener): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE

We skipped the light fandango  - turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick  - but the crowd called out for more

She said, 'There is no reason - and the truth is plain to see…'
 - but I wandered through my playing cards  - and would not let her be

 She said, 'I'm home on shore leave…'  - though in truth we were at sea
 - so I took her by the looking glass - and forced her to agree

FOUR LADIES CHAIN – and so it was that later

CHAIN THEM HOME – as the miller told his tale

Promenade – that her face, at first just ghostly - turned a whiter shade of pale

(Tag): – That her face, at first just ghostly - turned a whiter shade of pale

(Figure): FOUR LADIES CHAIN THREE QUARTERS – and the HEADS PROMENADE HALFWAY - HEADS LEAD RIGHT and STAR THRU – BOYS WALK, GIRLS DODGE – I say – SINGLE HINGE - GIRLS you TRADE – and then you SWING THRU – SWING your Girl and you PROMENADE

Her face, at first just ghostly - turned a whiter shade of pale

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

We skipped the light fandango - turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick - but the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder - as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink - the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later - as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'There is no reason - and the truth is plain to see.'
But I wandered through my playing cards - and would not let her be
one of sixteen vestal virgins - who were leaving for the coast
and although my eyes were open - they might have just as well've been closed

She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,' - though in truth we were at sea
so I took her by the looking glass - and forced her to agree
saying, 'You must be the mermaid - who took Neptune for a ride.'
But she smiled at me so sadly - that my anger straightway died

If music be the food of love - then laughter is its queen
and likewise if behind is in front - then dirt in truth is clean
My mouth by then like cardboard - seemed to slip straight through my head
So we crash-dived straightway quickly - and attacked the ocean bed
