Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Tomorrow, tomorrow never comes

What kind of a fool do they take me for?

Tomorrow, a restin' place for bums

A trap set in the slums, but I know the score

[Verse 2]

I won't take no for an answer

I was born to be a dancer now, yeah

[Verse 3]

Tomorrow, tomorrow as they say

Another working day and another chore

Tomorrow, an awful price to pay

I gave up yesterday, but they still want more

[Verse 4]

They are bound to compare me

To Fred Astaire when I'm done

[Verse 5]

Anyone who feels the rhythm movin' through 'em

Knows it's gonna do em good to let the music

Burst out

When you feel assured, let the people know it

Let your laughter loose it until your scream becomes a

Love-shout

[Verse 6]

Tomorrow, tomorrow's far away

Tomorrow, as they say, is reserved for a dreams

Tomorrow, tomorrow's lookin' grey

A playground always locked trains no winnin' teams

[Verse 7]

Won't take no for an answer

I was born to be a dancer now

[Verse 8]

Anyone who feels the rhythm movin' through 'em

Knows it's gonna do em good to let the music

Burst out

When you feel assured, let the people know it

Let your laughter loose it until your scream becomes a

Love-shout
