Song title: Barbra Streisand - The Minute Waltz

Edit By: 216.73.217.79

I have got a minute, just a little minute,
I have only got a minute, just minute,
I have only got a minute that is all the time
I have to sing this tiny minute waltz
It isnt easy but Ill try it
Than I gotta say goodbye
But first I take a minute
And put in it every note that chopin wrote
And I shall sing the little minute waltz
And hope that I can sing with no faults
And though its difficult
Ill give it last every last breath that I got within in my body
Hope that my performance wont be very shoddy
Singing every note
Im not the one to spoil my throat
I probably will end up hoarse
Of course I will Ive done it
An a way from that I made I will I want
Its not the money but the satisfaction that I get
From winning money on this silly kind of bet
Though this kind of solo wasnt his intention
Chopin isnt here to make an intervention
So with your permission and no intermission
I will sing each note that that composer wrote
As you can hear my trilling isnt very thrilling
But no one can say I wasnt very willing
To attempt a thing thats not been done
And just for fun to sing the minute waltz
As I sing the seconds fly, oh too soon the minute waltzed by
And now I ask you where am I halfway through the tune
And Im falling far behind
I have less than 30 seconds
Less than 30 seconds
Less than 30
Less than half a minute
I have less than 30 seconds
I have less than half a minute
To complete this little minute waltz
On every note thats in this score
While the sands of time I know are pouring
Let me win my bet and Ill run with the money
Down to something store there Ill buy a honey
Of a trophy for myself to put upon a shelf show the world I won
Oh the second hand is rushing round the dial
And though Id like to end this torture with a smile
Unless someone knows how to stop the clock
You gonna see me cry before I said goodbye
Eight little measures to complete this song
But Im afraid my little lungs will burst before to long if
Only I can last to scale
I wont have failed to sing the minute waltz!
