Clatter, crash, clack! Racket, bang, thump! Rattle, clang, crack, thud, whack, bam! It's music! - Now dance! Listen, Cvalda You're the dancer You've got the sparkle in your eyes Look at me, entrancer! Clatter, crash, clack... The clatter-machines They greet you and say: "We tap out a rhythm and sweep you away!" A clatter-machine What a magical sound A room full of noises That spins you around... Darling Selma Look who's dancing Faster than a shooting star! Cvalda's here! Cvalda sings... Clatter, crash, clack... The clatter-machines They greet you, and say: "We tap out a rhythm and sweep you away!" A clatter-machine! What a magical sound! A room full of noises That spins us around It spins us around It spins us around It spins us around... |

I've seen it all, I have seen the trees, I've seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze I've seen a friend killed by a friend, And lives that were over before they were spent. I've seen what I was - I know what I'll be I've seen it all - there is no more to see! You haven't seen elephants, kings or Peru! I'm happy to say I had better to do What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall? All walls are great, if the roof doesn't fall! And the man you will marry? The home you will share? To be honest, I really don't care... You've never been to Niagara Falls? I have seen water, its water, that's all... The Eiffel Tower, the Empire State? My pulse was as high on my very first date! Your grandson's hand as he plays with your hair? To be honest, I really don't care... I've seen it all, I've seen the dark I've seen the brightness in one little spark. I've seen what I chose and I've seen what I need, And that is enough, to want more would be greed. I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be I've seen it all - there is no more to see! You've seen it all and all you have seen You can always review on your own little screen The light and the dark, the big and the small Just keep in mind - you need no more at all You've seen what you were and know what you'll be You've seen it all - there is no more to see! |

Black night is falling The sun is gone to bed The innocent are dreaming As you should, sleepy-head Sleepy-head, sleepy-head: All the love above I send into you Comfort and protection I'll watch over you But don't ask me What's gonna happen next I know the future I'd love to lead you the way Just to make it easier on you You are gonna have to find out for yourself My Dearest Scatterheart There is comfort Right in the eye Of the hurricane Just to make it easier on you You are gonna have to find out for yourself All the hurt in the world You know There's nothing I'd love to do more Than spare you from that burden It's gonna be hard If I only could Shelter you From that pain Just to make it easier on you You are gonna have to find out for yourself |

Why do I love it so much? What kind of magic is this? How come I can't help adore it? It's just another musical No one minds it at all If I'm having a ball This is a musical And there's always someone To catch me There's always someone to catch me There's always someone to catch me There's always someone to catch me When you fall Why do I love you so much? What kind of magic is this? How come I can't help adore you? You were in a musical. I don't mind it at all If I'm having a ball This is a musical! And you were always there To catch me You were always there to catch me You were always there to catch me You were always there to catch me When I fall... I don't mind it at all If you're having a ball This is a musical! And I will always be there to catch you I'll always be there to catch you I'll always be there to catch you I'll always be there to catch you I'll always be there to catch you You were always there to catch me And there's always someone To catch me You will always be there to catch me You were always there to catch me When I'd fall... |

Train-whistles, a sweet clementine Blueberries, dancers in line Cobwebs, a bakery sign Ooooh - a sweet clementine Ooooh - dancers in line Ooooh ... If living is seeing I'm holding my breath In wonder - I wonder What happens next? A new world, a new day to see I'm softly walking on air Halfway to heaven from here Sunlight unfolds in my hair Ooooh - I'm walking on air Ooooh - to heaven from here Ooooh ... If living is seeing I'm holding my breath In wonder - I wonder What happens next? A new world, a new day to see |
