The Minute Waltz (Album Version) - Barbra Streisand[00:00:00]
Written by:L O'Kun[00:00:02]
I have got a minute[00:00:04]
Just a little minute[00:00:05]
I have only got a minute[00:00:05]
Just a minute[00:00:06]
I have only got a minute that is all the time[00:00:07]
I have to sing this tiny little minute waltz[00:00:09]
It isn't easy but I'll try it then[00:00:11]
I've got to say goodbye[00:00:13]
But first I take a minute[00:00:14]
And put in it every note that chopin wrote[00:00:15]
And I thus I'll sing the little minute waltz[00:00:17]
And hope that I can sing with no faults[00:00:18]
And though it's difficult[00:00:20]
I'll give it last every last breath that[00:00:21]
I've got within my body[00:00:23]
Hope that my performance won't be very shoddy[00:00:24]
Singing every note[00:00:25]
Will not do wonders for my throat[00:00:26]
I probably will end up hoarse[00:00:27]
Of course I will I've done it[00:00:29]
On a wager that I may have will have not won[00:00:30]
It's not the money but the satisfaction that I get[00:00:32]
From winning money on this silly kind of bet[00:00:35]
Though this kind of solo wasn't his intention[00:00:38]
Chopin isn't here to make an intervention[00:00:40]
So with your permission and no intermission[00:00:42]
I will sing each note that that composer wrote[00:00:43]
As you can hear my trilling isn't very thrilling[00:00:45]
But no one can say I wasn't very willing[00:00:47]
To attempt to sing what's not been done[00:00:51]
And just for fun to sing the minute waltz[00:00:52]
As I sing the seconds fly[00:00:55]
All too soon the minute walks by[00:00:58]
And now I ask you where am I[00:01:02]
Halfway through the tune[00:01:06]
And I'm falling far behind[00:01:08]
I have less than 30 seconds[00:01:15]
Less than 30 seconds[00:01:16]
Less than 30[00:01:17]
Less than half a minute[00:01:18]
I have less than 30 seconds[00:01:19]
I have less than half a minute[00:01:20]
To complete this little minute waltz[00:01:21]
Where every note that's in the score faults[00:01:23]
The sands of time I know are pouring[00:01:25]
Let me win my bet and I'll run with the money[00:01:27]
Down to some big store and there[00:01:28]
I'll buy a honey[00:01:30]
Of a trophy for myself to put upon[00:01:32]
The shelf show the world I won[00:01:33]
Oh the second hand is rushing round the dial[00:01:36]
And though I'd like to end this torture with a smile[00:01:37]
Unless someone knows how to stop the clock[00:01:40]
You gonna see me cry before I've said goodbye[00:01:41]
Eight little measures to complete this song[00:01:43]
But I'm afraid my little lungs will[00:01:45]
Burst before too long if[00:01:46]
Only I can last the scale[00:01:49]
I won't have failed to sing the little minute waltz[00:01:50]
