Song and Dance Brigade Lyrics

Rub your eyes and look again.
Facial features show the strain.
But don't back-a-don't back away.

Idle hours lose their charm.
But they won't do you any harm.
If you don't back-a-don't back away.

They won't appreciate your long experience.
Working dance halls on your own.
They can't mechanize the song and dance brigade.
They'll only notice when we've gone.

It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away

But don't back-a- don't back-a- don't back-a- don't back away.

See that twinkle in your eye.
Precious moments never die.
So don't back-a-don't back away.

In the time that you've been on.
A generation's come and gone.
But don't back-a-don't back away.

They won't appreciate your long experience.
Working dance halls on your own.
They can't mechanize the song and dance brigade.
They'll only notice when we've gone.

It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away
It's over today - don't back away

But don't back-a- don't back-a- don't back-a- don't back away.
