Carioca (The Carioca)

Say have you seen the carioca It's not a foxtrot or a polka It has a little bit of new rhythm A blue rhythm that sighs It has a meter that is tricky A bit of wicked wacky wicky But when you dance it with a new love There's a true love in her eyes You dream of a new Carioca It's theme is a kiss and a sigh You dream of a new carioca When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye Two heads together they say are better than one Two heads together that's how the dance's begun Two arms around you and lips that sigh I'm yours and you're mine While the carioca carries you away While we carioca till the break of day Now that you've done the carioca You'll never care to do the polka And then you'll realize the blue hula anda bamboola are through Tomorrow morning you'll discover You're just a carioca lover And when you dance it with a new love There'll be true love just for you You'll dream of a new carioca Its theme is a kiss and a sigh You'll dream of a new carioca When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye
