betty comden & adolph green - i get carried away lyrics

Loading...

[claire]
modern man, what is it?
just a collection of complexes and neurotic impulses
that occasionally break through

[ozzie, spoken]
you mean sometimes you blow your top, like me?

[claire]
i do
i try hard to stay controlled
but i get carried away
try to act aloof and cold
but i get carried away

[ozzie]
carried away, carried away
you get carried, just carried away!
[claire]
carried away, carried away
i get carried away!

[claire]
when i go to listen to a symphony
why can’t i just say the music’s grand?
why must i leap up on the stage hysterically?
they’re playing pizzicato
and everything goes blotto
i grab the maestro’s stick and start in leading the band!

[ozzie]
carriеd away, carried away
you get carried, just carriеd away!

[claire]
carried away, carried away
i get carried away!

[ozzie]
and when i go to see a moving picture show
and i’m watching actors in a scene
i start to think what’s happening is really so
the girl, i must protect her
the villain don’t respect her
i leap to her defense and knock a hole right through the screen!
[claire]
carried away, carried away
he gets carried

[ozzie]
carried away, carried away
i get carried

[claire & ozzie]
yes, carried away!

[ozzie]
i try hard to keep detached
but i get carried away
try to act less b00by+hatched
but i get carried away

[claire]
carried away, carried away
he gets carried, just carried away!

[ozzie]
carried away, carried away
i get carried away!

[ozzie]
when shopping, i’m a sucker for a bargain sale
if something is marked down upon a shelf
my sense of what is practical begins to fail
i buy one, then another
another, then another
i buy the whole store out and i’m in business for myself!
[claire]
carried away, carried away
he gets carried, just carried away!

[ozzie]
carried away, carried away
i get carried away!

[claire]
and when i go to see my friends off on a train
golly, how i hate to see them go
for then my love of traveling i can’t restrain
the time has come for parting
the train’s already starting
i hop a freight and in a flash i’m off to buffalo!

[ozzie]
carried away, carried away

[claire & ozzie]
we get carried, yes, carried away!
