Useless Waltz Songtext
von Dave Frishberg

Out of date, out of style
Sounds as if it′s been around a while
There's no excuse
It′s just a useless waltz
Play it soft, play it loud
This is never going to draw a crowd
Why introduce
Another useless waltz?
Will it sell?
Could maybe some payola hype it off the ground?
Who can tell?
It could become tomorrow's standard disco sound
So play it once and then once more


Figure out what we can use it for
But what's the use?
It′s still a useless waltz
Will it sell?
Could maybe some payola hype it off the ground?
Who can tell?
It may become tomorrow′s standard disco sound
So we'll take it up a half a tone
And overdub electric valve trombone
It′s well produced
With no apparent faults
But what's the use?
It′s still a useless waltz
