We skipped the light fandango ♪ Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder ♪ As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink The waiter brought a tray And so it was that later ♪ As the miller told his tale ♪ That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale ♪ She said, "There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see" ♪ But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be One of sixteen vestal virgins ♪ Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed And so it was that later ♪ As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale ♪ And so it was that later ♪ As the miller told his tale
