"Dancing on the Ceiling" is a 1930 popular song composed by Richard Rodgers, with lyrics by Lorenz Hart for the 1930 London musical Ever Green when it was sung by Jessie Matthews. It was originally part of the musical Simple Simon, but it was cut from the production before the premiere.

An early popular recording in the USA in 1932 was by the British Jack Hylton and His Orchestra (with vocal by Pat O'Malley).[2]

The song was identified correctly for a $100,000 grand prize on the game show Name That Tune in 1977.[3]
