ALL MY TOMORROWS
(Music by: James Van Heusen / Lyric by: Sammy Cahn)
Performed by: Frank Sinatra
Today I may not have a thing at all,
Except for just a dream or two,
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow,
And all my tomorrows belong to you.
Right now it might not seem like Spring at all,
We're drifting and the laughs are few,
But I've got rainbows planned for tomorrow,
And all my tomorrows belong to you.
No-one knows better than I
That luck keeps passing me by,
That's fate!
But with you there by my side
I'll soon be turning that tide,
Just wait!
As long as I've got arms that cling at all,
It's you that I'll be clinging to,
And all the dreams I dream, be or borrow,
On some bright tomorrow,
They'll all come true,
And all my bright tomorrows belong to you.
As long as I've got arms that cling at all,
It's you that I'll be clinging to,
And all the dreams I dream, be or borrow,
On some bright tomorrow,
They'll all come true,
And all my bright tomorrows belong to you.

SHIRL'S THEME (Cha Cha)
(Written by: Nelson Riddle)

Cha cha cha to the right
The night is young
Cha cha cha to the left
Oh, don't be chicken
Play me something
You'll cha cha cha
We'll cha cha
You'll cha cha

The night is young
Oh, don't be chicken
Frank Sinatra (spoken): Not go up (goat?), will you!
Carolyn: And the well lord is a goof!

HIGH HOPES
(Music by: James Van Heusen / Lyric by: Sammy Cahn)
Performed by: Frank Sinatra & Eddie Hodges
Frank Sinatra:
Next time you're found with your chin on the ground,
There's a lot to be learned, so look around.
Just what makes that little ol' ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant;
Anyone knows an ant can't
Move a rubber tree plant.
But he's got high hopes, (Together: He's got high hopes;
He's got high in the sky apple pie hopes.)
Frank Sinatra:
So any time you're feelin' low,
'Stead of lettin' go,
Just remember that ant.
Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant.
Eddie Hodges: Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant.
Frank Sinatra: Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant.
Eddie Hodges:
When troubles call and your back's to the wall,
There's a lot to be learned, that wall could fall.
Once there was a silly ol' ram,
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam;
No one could make that ram scram,
He kept buttin' that dam.
Together:
('Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes;
He had high apple pie in the sky hopes.)
Frank: So any time you're feelin' low,
Eddie Hodges: 'Stead of lettin' go, (Laughing)
Frank: Just remember that ram. Ha!
Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam.
Eddie Hodges: Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam.
Frank Sinatra: Oops, There goes a billion kilowatt dam.
Oh, you better have (Together: high hopes, keep your high hopes;
Keep those high apple pie in the sky hopes.)
Frank Sinatra: A problem's just a toy balloon,
Eddie Hodges: They'll be bursting soon,
(Together: They're just bound to go "Pop!")
Frank Sinatra: Oops! There goes another problem, kerplop!
Eddie Hodges: Oops, There goes another problem, kerplop!
Frank Sinatra: Oops, There goes another problem, kerplop!
Eddie Hodges: Kerplop!

OH, THE MONKEYS TELL NO TAILS IN ZAMBOANGA
(Traditional – Lyric by: G. Savoca / Written about 1900)
Performed by: Carolyn Jones
Oh, the monkeys tell no tails in Zamboanga,
(Oh, the monkeys tell no tails in Zamboanga,)
Oh, the monkeys tell no tails,
`Cause the monkeys they're all males,
And this monkey's on a way to Zamboanga.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
