Sally Lodger:
The world is lyrical

Because a miracle

Has brought my lover to me

Though she's some other place, her face I see

Simon Williams:
At night I creep in bed

And never sleep in bed

But look above in the air

And to my greatest joy, my love is there

Sally Lodger:
She dances overhead

On the ceiling near my bed

In my sight

All through the night

Simon Williams:
I try to hide in vain

Underneath my counterpane

But there's my love

Up there above

Sally Lodger and Simon Williams: I whisper, "Go away, my lover

It's not fair"

But I'm so grateful to discover

That she's still there

I love my ceiling more

Since it is a dancing floor

Just for my love

Sally Lodger and Simon Williams: Honey, did you see that bill

Pasted there on yonder hill?

Kindly pay attention

To what the letters mention

'Twill give you a wonderful thrill

Chase away those weary blues

Ain't you heard the happy news?

INT. STIFEL THEATRE - 1950 - NIGHT

Lodger-Williams Siblings: 'Circus is coming to town

'Circus is coming to town

Two dozen acrobats from o'er the foam

And Salome

Hip-hip-hippodrome

Come see the comical clown

Turning himself upside-down

Come and purchase a photograph

Of the freaks and the big giraffe

Open your dining room and start to laugh

The circus is coming to town

Lodger-Williams Siblings: Come and see the big parade

Jazzy music will be played

Just before we're seated

I'll see that you are treated

To peanuts and red lemonade

Barnum had the right idea

Come and give him one big cheer

INT. STIFEL THEATRE - 1951 - NIGHT

Sally Lodger:
Hello, I’m Sally and these are my children Francine and Gerald

Vincent Stickley: Hello Jane, Francine and Gerald, I’m Vincent

Jane Lodger:
You’re On

Vincent Stickley: Okay

Announcer:
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mister Vincent Stickley

Vincent Stickley: That old black magic has me in it's spell

That old black magic that you weave so well

Those icy fingers up and down my spine

The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine

The same old tingle that I feel inside

And then that elevator starts it's slide

And down and down I go

Round and round I go

Like a leaf that's caught in the tide

I should stay away but what can I do

I hear your name, and I'm aflame

A flame with such a burning desire

That only your kiss can put out the fire

'Cause you're the lover I have waited for

The mate that fate had me created for

And every time you lips meet mine

Darling, down and down I go

Round and round I go

In that spin of love that I am in

Under that old black magic of love
