Song Lyrics
Dorothy: Do you know there are dances from all around the world? You can dance the cachuca! You can dance the fandango! And don't forget the romp bomp a stomp! Why don't we try a few?
(Starts singing) Dance a cachuca
Fandango, bolero
Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero
Tea, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of the wildest of dances
To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter
And the clittler, clitter, clitter, clatter
Clitter, clitter, clatter
Pitter, pitter, patter
Clitter, clitter, clatter
Pitter, pitter, patter
To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter
And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter
Pitter, pitter, pitter
Patter, patter, patter, patter
Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero
For tea, when it runs in abundance
The reckless delight of the wildest of dances
The wildest of dances, the reckless delight
Dance a cachuca
Fandango, bolero
Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero
For tea, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of the wildest of dances
Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero
For tea, when it runs in abundance
Enhances the reckless delight of the wildest of dances
The reckless delight of the wildest of DANCES!!!
Captain: Wah hoo hoo! Oh, I love this dancing, Dorothy! Woo hoo hoo! Oh, dance a cachuca! Wah hoo!"
(Starts singing)
To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter
And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter
Clitter, clitter, clatter
Pitter, pitter, patter
Clitter, clitter, clatter
Pitter, pitter, patter
To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter
And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter
(Instrumental break)
Captain: Wah hoo! Hoo hoo hoo hooo hoooo!
