original broadway cast of the will rogers follies - will-a-mania lyrics
[ziegfeld’s favorite]
each early morning i get up
read his column with my coffee cup
never, ever start the day without will
his wit and wisdom let me see
all the foibles of this century
there’s no way to start my day without will
just multiply me by the millions
from gotham out to frisco bay
those toms and d-cks and jacks and jillians
are asking “hey did you see what will said today?”
he’s also king of hollywood
now he stands where valentino stood
biggest movie star by far is our will
at any time around the clock
lines keep forming all around the block
watch them fill the movie till for our will
he’s got more fans than shirley temple
he beat her out as number one
he draws more crowds than aimee semple
the country’d rather do the dance that will’s begun
[company]
willamania! this dance has swept the nation
willamania! dance of communication
black bottom charleston you have seen your last days
so scratch your skull, tilt your head, and do the new craze
we call it
willamania! it’s intercontinental
will sure gets around
the shimshamshimmy’s now a dance that’s been had
so nap your gum, tw-ng your voice and do the new fad
(dance break)
[ziegfeld’s favorite]
those drums and smoke were long ago
now today we use the radio
once a week can’t end my day without will
rush home so i won’t get there late
cause i’ve got this very special date
once a week the night belongs to my will
[company]
by means of coast to coastal network
his words go floating ev’rywhere
each fam’ly hopes to make its set work
so they can say, “d’ja hear what will said on the air?”
“d’ja hear what will said on the air?”
“d’ja hear what will said on the air?”
“d’ja hear, d’ja hear, d’ja hear d’ja hear
what will said on the air?”
willamania! this dance has swept the nation
willamania! dance of communication
the flapper, city sl!cker, farmhand and rube
connected by signals from the vacuum tube
willamania! he’s also hit the white house
will sure gets around
he talks up ev’rywhere, and tells us what’s what
a movie star, ziegfield star, he’s hotter than hot
(dance break)
willamania! from cal. to pennsylvania!
willamania! willamania!
scratch your skull, tw-ng your voice, snap your gum for the peoples choice-
brand new sage for a brand new age, he makes our spirits climb
it’s willamania time!
here’s our will!
