《The Gay Gondolier》歌词

[00:00:03] La la la la la la la la la la la la la laro

[00:00:10] Gondolier he he he he ha ha ha ha

[00:00:18] A gondola owner in venice

[00:00:20] I had been since the age of discretion thirteen

[00:00:25] But today gondoliering in venice

[00:00:27] Is a most overcrowded profession

[00:00:30] You can't swing a cat sir around the piazza

[00:00:33] The palace of doges is full of old fogies

[00:00:37] And by the san marco there's nowhere to park oh

[00:00:42] It wasn't for me

[00:00:44] So I went out to sea

[00:00:47] And caused a commotion by crossing the ocean

[00:00:51] Becoming the only original gondolier gondolier

[00:00:59] On the manchester ship canal

[00:01:09] On board my gondola I serve Coca Cola

[00:01:12] In flagons which once held chianti

[00:01:15] And for five bob a night I would sing or recite

[00:01:18] From a bowdlerised version of dante

[00:01:23] The transport commission gave me their permission

[00:01:26] One gondola canal or thamesis

[00:01:29] And when I made obeisance they threw in my licence

[00:01:33] For vino consumed on the premises

[00:01:37] When I sing unsoberly la donna mobile

[00:01:43] People in houseboats complain

[00:01:46] Of my gay barcarolle

[00:01:48] So I stick in my pole

[00:01:50] And sing it again and again

[00:01:55] La la la la la la la la la la la la la laro

[00:02:02] Gondolier he he he he ha ha ha

[00:02:09] A gay gondolier as I shoot every weir

[00:02:13] And I shout as I sit in venezia

[00:02:15] Oh who wants to fondle a girl in my gondola

[00:02:19] Up come the river policia

[00:02:22] Oh bacciare inside the cabina

[00:02:25] The Englishman travels in style

[00:02:28] With a young senorita

[00:02:30] My gondolin meter

[00:02:32] Is clicking up three pence a mile

[00:02:37] So tied to a jetty I eat my spaghetti

[00:02:40] And drink till I'm properly plastered

[00:02:43] Shouting dog off on starches to bargees on barges

[00:02:47] Who shouting reply you're a

[00:02:49] It's a lie

[00:02:52] For it's ever so much fun you will find

[00:02:56] On my anglo venetian blind
