    Easter Dancing in Linz


    The President for most of the service

    The priest got to say a prayer

    Dance- the perfect end
    For some reason, Noel Coward came to mind- can't think why.

    DANCE LITTLE LADY
    Words - Noel Coward

    Though your only seventeen, far too much of life you've seen
    syncopated child.
    Maybe if you only knew, where your path is leading to,
    you'd come home less wild.
    But I know it's vain, trying to explain,
    while there's this insane, music in your
    brain.

    REFRAIN
    Dance, dance, dance, little lady! Youth is fleeting to the
    rhythm beating in your mind.
    Dance, dance, dance, little lady, so obsessed with second
    best, no rest, you'll ever find.
    Time and tide and trouble, never, never wait,
    let this cauldron bubble, justify your fate.
    Dance, dance, dance, little lady, dance, dance, dance, little lady!
    Leave tomorrow behind.

    (Tempo di Charleston)
    When the saxophone gives a wicked moan,
    Charleston. Hey! Hey!
    Rhythms, fall and,
    rise, start dancing
    to the tune the band's crooning for soon the
    night will be gone. Start swaying
    like a read without heeding the speed that hur-
    ries you on.
    African melodies,
    syncopate your nerves till your body curves,
    drooping, stooping,
    laughter, someday,
    dies, and when the
    lights are starting to gutter,
    dawn through the shutter,
    shows you're living in a world of
    lies.

    Who said you can't mix voodoo with the sacrifice of the Easter Mass? They've got dolls surrounding the sacred species!

    Noooo! Good heavens, what is this?
    Thankfully, it is not the sacred species, but only wafers.
