carried away - leonard bernstein lyrics

[claire deloone]
modern man, what is it?
just a collection of complexes and neurotic impulses
that occasionally break thorugh

[ozzie]
you mean sometimes you blow your top, like me?

[claire]
i do
i try hard to stay contolled
but i get carried away
try to act aloof and cold
but i get carried away

[both]
carried away, carried away
carried away, carried away
you get carried, i get carried
yes, carried away

[claire]
when i sit and listen to a symphony
why can’t i just say the music’s grand?
why must i leap up on the stage hysterically?
they’re playing pizzicato
and everything goes blotto
i grab the maestro’s stick and start in leading the band!

[both]
carried away, carried away
carried away, carried away
you get carried, i get carried
yes, carried away

[ozzie]
and when i go to see a moving picture show
and i’m watching actors in a scene
i start to think what’s happening is really so
the girl, i must protect her
the villain don’t respect her
i leap to her defense and knock a whole right through the screen!

[both]
carried away, carried away
carried away, carried away
he gets carried, i get carried
yes, carried away

[ozzie]
i try hard to keep detached
but i get carried away
try to act less b–by hatched
but i get carried away

[both]
carried away, carried away
carried away, carried away
he gets carried, i get carried
yes, carried away

[ozzie]
when shopping, i’m sucker for a bargain sale
if something is marked down upon a shelf
my sense of what is practical begins to fail
i buy one, then another
another, then another
i buy the whole store out and i’m in business for myself!

[both]
carried away, carried away
carried away, carried away
he gets carried, i get carried
yes, carried away

[claire]
and when i go to see my friends off on a train
golly, how i hate to see them go
for then my love of travelling i can’t restrain
the time has come for parting
the train’s already starting
i hop a freight and in a flash i’m off to buffalo!

[both]
carried away, carried away
we get carried
yes, carried away
