The Wiener Schnitzel Waltz — текст песни (Tom Lehrer)

Now to continue with the love song, here we have the viennese waltz type of the franz lehar/johann strauss school, conjuring up images of gaily waltzing couples and probably stale champagne drun

M sweaty slippers. this example is called the wiener schnitzel waltz.



Do you remember the night I held you so tight,

As we danced to the wiener schnitzel waltz?

The music was gay, and the setting was viennese,

Your hair wore some roses (or perhaps they were peonies),

I was blind to your obvious faults,

As we danced cross the scene

To the strains of the wiener schnitzel waltz.



Oh, I drank some champagne from your shoe.

I was drunk by the time I got through.

I didnt know as I raised that cup,

It had taken two bottles to fill the thing up.



It was I who stepped on your dress.

The skirts all came off, I confess.

Revealing for all of the others to see

Just what it was that endeared you to me.



I remember the night I held you so tight,

As we danced to the wiener schnitzel waltz.

Your lips were like wine (if youll pardon the simile),

The music was lovely and quite rudolf frimly.

I drank wine, you drank chocolate malts,

And we both turned quite green

To the strains of the wiener schnitzel waltz.
