There may be trouble ahead   While there's moonlight and music and love and romance   Let's face the music and dance      Before the fiddlers have fled   Before they ask us to pay the bill   And while we still have the chance   Let's face the music and dance      Soon we'll be without the moon   Hummin' a different tune, and then      There may be teardrops to shed   But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance   Face the music and dance      Soon we'll be without the moon   Hummin' a different tune, and then, and then      There may be teardrops to shed   But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance   Let's face the music and dance, dance   Let's face the music   Come on feel the music   Why not face the music and dance
