Applause, applause. 
Give the singer a chance. 
Treat her right, 
Be polite. 
Maybe she will dance. 

Applause, applause. 
Give the singer a break. 
How much can you give? 
How much can you take? 
Give the singer a chance. 
Wanna give the singer a chance. 
Anything to buy your soul, 
And maybe she will dance. 


Applause, applause. 
She'll stand upon her head, 
Applause, applause. 
She'll take you to her bed, 
And share with you the memories 
Of dreams she can't forget. 
Applause, applause. 
Let's give the prize 
To the little lady 
With the stars in her eyes. 


Pay the price and carry on. 
And share with you the memories 
Of dreams I can't forget, 
Of lovers I have met. 
Applause, applause. 
Let's give the prize 
To the little lady 
With the stars in her eyes. 

Applause, applause. 
Give the singer a chance. 
Treat her right. 
Be polite, 
Maybe she will dance. 
Applaud, applaud. 
Give that singer a break. 
How much can you give? 
How much would it take? 

Aw, give the singer a chance. 
Give the singer a chance. 
Anything to buy your soul, 
And maybe she will dance. 
Oh, maybe she will dance. 
Maybe she will dance. 
Maybe she will dance.
