DUMBLEDORE:
Now you are a boy,
an orphan boy,
and deep inside of you
a broken soul,
a gaping hole
has left you feeling blue.
But you're not like the other boys
you've got that magic flair.
Cause when you start to sway, you get carried away!
And no one can compare.
I've been watching you play, (TR: you have?)
I've been listening to the things that you say (TR: uh oh)
and I've come to tell you today,
You're no ordinary blighter.
You've got a broken heart, (TR: sigh)
and you keep reaching inside to tear it apart,
But I'm here to give you a brand new start
And make your spirits brighter!
When all the other boys start to laugh and jeer,
I know a secret way you can make them disappear.
You've got the talent, kid, so here's your chance.
They might not understand, but just stick to the plan
and show em all its time to dance!
Always dance!
Always dance!
Though they'll try to stop you, always dance.
Shut your mouth and stop your yapping,
Take your foot and set it tapping!
You were born a magic boy, so leap and twirl and prance!
Oh, Tommy, always dance!
TOM RIDDLE:
I've been ready to go,
for how long I really don't know,
but one look at you and I know
that you would never fool me.
I've been living a lie.
Ever since I made my poor mommy die
I've been softly wondering why
they all choose to ridicule me.
(he gets sad during that last part, so Dumbledore chimes in to cheer him up)
DUMBLEDORE:
When all the other boys start to laugh and jeer,
DUMBLEDORE & TOM RIDDLE:
I know a secret way you (I) can make them disappear.
DUMBLEDORE:
You've got the talent, kid!
TOM RIDDLE:
This is my chance!
DUMBLEDORE & TOM RIDDLE:
They might not understand, but well stick to the plan
and show em all its time to dance!
Always dance!
Always dance!
Though they'll try to stop you, always dance.
Shut your mouth and stop your yapping,
Take your foot and set it tapping!
TOM RIDDLE:
I was born a magic boy, Ill leap and twirl and prance!
DUMBLEDORE:
Oh, Tommy, always dance!
TOM RIDDLE: (overlapping)
Dumby I'll always dance!
(Tom says hello to his fellows Slytherins, has a dance-off with Lucius which he wins)
SLYTHERINS:
Look at his style!
Look at him go!
Watch his technique!
Check out his flow!
My, how he leaps!
Oh, what a prance!
Look at him look at him look at him dance!
ALL:
Always dance!
Always dance!
Though they'll try to stop you, always dance.
Shut your mouth and stop your yapping,
Take your foot and set it tapping!
He was born a magic boy, so leap and twirl and prance!
Always, always, always dance!
(We are now back at present time with Tom and Ginny)
TOM RIDDLE:
You've got the talent, kid, so you're my nominee.
You might not understand, but you will dance with me
Always dance..
Always dance...
Though they'll try to stop us, always dance.
You were born for my control, so step into my trance...
