Barbra Streisand - I Want to Be Seen With You Tonight

Afterwards, Ziegfeld is
angry but agrees she
was right to go for the
comedy.
Nick Arnstein comes
backstage and wants to
escort Fanny out to
celebrate her
opening night. Fanny
would love to go out with
Nick but she's obligated
to
appear at a party at
her mother's saloon;
she invites Nick and he
accepts.

Nick:
I want to be seen, be seen with you,
With you on my arm,
To wear you like a charm,
Your glitter decorating my arm.
Now, natch'rally such proximity
Gives rumors a rise,
We'll let them analyze
What our amalgamation implies.
Oh yes,
The gossips will press,
So willing to stress
The seamy side--
Know what?
So what!
I want to be seen, be seen with you,
With you on my arm.
Let's give this town a light,
And hit it like a
me-te-or-ite--tonight.
I want to be seen with you.

Fanny:
The moon over mother's saloon,
Have a nice macaroon
I'll buy you a light beer.

Nick:
Right, dear.

Both:
I want to be seen, be seen with you,

Nick:
With you on my arm.
Let's give this town a light
And hit it like a me-te-or-ite--

Both:
Tonight--I want to be seen with,

Nick:
Oh, please let me be seen with,

Fanny:
And I would like to be seen with

Both:
I want to be seen with you.
