The Minute Waltz Songtext - Barbra Streisand

I have got a minute, just a little minute,
I have only got a minute, just minute,
I have only got a minute that is all the time
I have to sing this tiny little minute waltz
It isn't easy but I'll try it
Then I"ve gotta say goodbye
But first I take a minute
And put in it every note that Chopin wrote
and I shall sing the little minute waltz
And hope that I can sing with no faults
and though it's difficult
I'll give it last every last breath that I got within in my body
Hope that my performance won't be very shoddy
Singing every note
will not do wonders for my throat
I probably will end up hoarse
Of course I will I've done it
in a wager that I made I will I won
It's not the money but the -- satisfaction that I get
from winning money on this silly kind of bet.

less than 30
less than half a minute
I have less than 30 seconds
I have less than half a minute
to complete this little minute waltz,
on every note that's in this score
While the sands of time, I know are pouring
Let me win my bet and I'll run with the money
Down to some big store there I'll buy a honey --
of a trophy for myself to put upon a shelf show the world I won
Oh the second hand is rushing round the dial
And though I'd like to end this torture with a smile
Unless someone knows how to stop the clock
you gonna see me cry before I said goodbye
Eight little measures to complete this song
But I'm afraid my little lungs will burst before to long if
Only I can last to scale
I won't have failed to sing the little minute waltz!
