"Dance a cachucha" from Gilbert & Sullivan's "The Gondoliers"

Lakeshore Light Opera sings at the Hail Unity! concert.

Lyrics below:

Dance a cachucha, fandango, bolero,
Xeres we'll drink — Manzanilla, Montero —
For wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances!
To the pretty pitter, pitter, patter,
And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter,
Clitter, clitter, clatter,
Pitter, pitter, patter,
Clitter, clitter, clatter,
Clitter, clitter —
To the pretty pitter, pitter, patter,
And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter,
Pitter, pitter, pitter,
Patter, patter, patter,
Patter, we'll dance.
Old Xeres we'll drink — Manzanilla, Montero —
Wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances,
That wildest of dances,
The reckless delight!
Dance a cachucha, fandango, bolero,
Xeres we'll drink — Manzanilla, Montero —
For wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances!
Old Xeres we'll drink — Manzanilla, Montero —
Wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances,
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances!
