作词:Betty Comden/Adolph Green
作曲:Leonard Bernstein
Modern man what is it
Just a collection of complexes
And neurotic impulses
That occasionally break through
You mean sometimes you blow your top like me
I do
I try hard to stay controlled
But I get carried away
Try to act aloof and cold
But I get carried away
Carried away carried away
You get carried just carried away
When I sit and listen to a symphony
Why can't I just say the music's grand
Why must I leap upon the stage hysterically
They're playing pizzicato
And everything goes blotto
I grab the maestro's stick and start in leading the band
Carried away carried away
I get carried just carried away
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
Carried away carried away
He gets carried just carried away
I try hard to keep detached
But I get carried away
Try to act less booby hatched
But I get carried away
Carried away carried away
He gets carried just carried away
When shopping I'm a sucker for a bargain sale
If something is marked down upon a shelf
My sense of what is practical begins to fail
I buy one then another
Another then another
I buy the whole store out and I'm in business for myself
Carried away carried away
He gets carried just carried away
And when I go to see my friends off on a train
Golly how I hate to see them go
For then my love of travelling I can't restrain
The time has come for parting
The train's already starting
I hop a freight and in a flash I'm off to buffalo
We get carried just carried a way
