| Gilbert And Sullivan - Nevermind The Why And Wherefore Lyrics: | ||
CAPT. Never mind the why and wherefore, Love can level ranks, and therefore, Though his lordship's station's mighty, Though stupendous be his brain, Though your tastes are mean and flighty And your fortune poor and plain, CAPT. and Ring the merry bells on board-ship, SIR JOSEPH. Rend the air with warbling wild, For the union of his/my lordship With a humble captain's child! CAPT. For a humble captain's daughter-- JOS. For a gallant captain's daughter-- SIR JOSEPH. And a lord who rules the water-- JOS. (aside). And a tar who ploughs the water! ALL. Let the air with joy be laden, Rend with songs the air above, For the union of a maiden With the man who owns her love! SIR JOSEPH. Never mind the why and wherefore, Love can level ranks, and therefore, Though your nautical relation (alluding to Capt.) In my set could scarcely pass-- Though you occupy a station In the lower middle class-- CAPT. and Ring the merry bells on board-ship, SIR JOSEPH. Rend the air with warbling wild, For the union of my/your lordship With a humble captain's child! CAPT. For a humble captain's daughter-- JOS. For a gallant captain's daughter-- SIR JOSEPH. And a lord who rules the water-- JOS. (aside). And a tar who ploughs the water! ALL. Let the air with joy be laden, Rend with songs the air above, For the union of a maiden With the man who owns her love! JOS. Never mind the why and wherefore, Love can level ranks, and therefore I admit the jurisdiction; Ably have you played your part; You have carried firm conviction To my hesitating heart. CAPT. and Ring the merry bells on board-ship, SIR JOSEPH. Rend the air with warbling wild, For the union of my/his lordship With a humble captain's child! CAPT. For a humble captain's daughter-- JOS. For a gallant captain's daughter-- SIR JOSEPH. And a lord who rules the water-- JOS. (aside). And a tar who ploughs the water! (Aloud.) Let the air with joy be laden. CAPT. and SIR JOSEPH. Ring the merry bells on board-ship-- JOS. For the union of a maiden-- CAPT. and SIR JOSEPH. For her union with his lordship. ALL. Rend with songs the air above For the man who owns her love! http://www.free-lyrics.org/10811-Gilbert-And-Sullivan.html View more Gilbert And Sullivan Song Lyrics: Gilbert And Sullivan - For He Is an Englishman Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - A More Humane Mikado Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - The Sun, Whose Rays Are All Ablaze Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - Behold The Lord High Executioner Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - The Flowers That Bloom In The Spring Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - A Wand'ring Minstrel I Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - There Is Beauty In The Bellow Of The Blast Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - Our Great Mikado, Virtuous Man Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - The Criminal Cried Lyrics Gilbert And Sullivan - Alone, And Yet Alive!
