On the Town: I Get Carried Away / You’ve Got That Look (That Leaves Me Weak)
(Song)
[BETTY]
I try hard to stay controlled
But I get carried away
Try to act aloof and cold
But I get carried away

[BETTY AND ADOLPH]
Carried away, carried away
Carried away, carried away
You get carried, carried away

[ADOLPH]
And when I go to see a moving picture show
And I'm watching actors in a scene
I start to think what's happening is really so
The girl, I must protect her
The villain don't respect her
I leap to her defense and knock a hole right through the screen

[BETTY AND ADOLPH]
Get carried away, carried away
Carried away, carried away
He gets carried, we get carriеd, just carried away

(Spoken)
[SHIRLEY]
Brilliant, but, but what no one hеre knows is how he beat the soprano out of his poor baby sister performing all those operas when we were children, let that be fair warning to you and to everyone. Hello! I thought you might be here! You're so good at making the rounds. Have you met the gang? Betty and Adolph, they're just a riot
[FELICIA]
Hello

[SHIRLEY]
Ellen, of course you've run into her at another studio, no doubt

[FELICIA]
Hello, Felicia

[SHIRLEY]
Who did I miss? Have I missed anyone?

[LEONARD]
Just the piano player

[SHIRLEY]
I figured you needed no introduction

[LEONARD]
Hello, I'm Lenny

[FELICIA]
Hello, Felicia

[LEONARD]
Uh, Bernstein, like that one
[FELICIA]
Montealegre

[LEONARD]
Monte-Montealegre?

[FELICIA]
Montealegre-Cohen

[LEONARD]
Cohen? Montealegre-Cohen? Well, that's an interesting marriage of words

(Song)
[ELLEN]
You've got that look, that look that leaves me weak
You with your eyes across the table technique
You've got that look, that look between the lines
You with your let's-get-more-than-friendly designs
I should be brave and say, "Let's have no more of it."
But oh, what's the use when you know I love it?
You'll only kill my will before I speak
So turn on that low left hook, that look that leaves me weak
All I do is whine with 'em
And spit out gum and whine with 'em
Respectable as can be
But here's what they say to me
You've got that look, that look that leaves me weak
You with your eyes across the table technique
You've got that look, that look between the lines
You with your let's-get-more-than-friendly designs
I should be brave and say, "Let's have no more of it."
But oh, what's the use when you know I love it?
You'll only kill my will before I speak
So turn on that low left hook, that look that leaves me weak
