《Mrs. Worthington》歌词

[00:00:00] Mrs. Worthington - Noel Coward and Orchestra/Richard Murdoch

[00:00:08] Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs. Worthington

[00:00:12] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:00:15] The profession is overcrowded

[00:00:17] And the struggle's pretty tough

[00:00:19] And admitting the fact

[00:00:20] She's burning to act

[00:00:20] That isn't quite enough

[00:00:22] She has nice hands

[00:00:24] Give the wretched girl her due

[00:00:26] But don't you think her bust is too

[00:00:28] Developed for her age

[00:00:29] I repeat Mrs. Worthington

[00:00:31] Sweet Mrs. Worthington

[00:00:33] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:00:37] Regarding yours

[00:00:38] Dear Mrs. Worthington

[00:00:40] Of Wednesday the twenty third

[00:00:43] Although your baby

[00:00:45] May be keen on a stage career

[00:00:47] How can I make it clear

[00:00:49] This is not a good idea

[00:00:51] For her to hope

[00:00:52] Dear Mrs. Worthington

[00:00:54] Is on the face of it absurd

[00:00:57] Her personality

[00:00:59] Is not in reality

[00:01:01] Exciting enough

[00:01:02] Inviting enough

[00:01:02] For this particular sphere

[00:01:04] Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:08] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:01:11] She's a bit of an ugly duckling

[00:01:13] You must honestly confess

[00:01:14] And the width of her seat

[00:01:17] Would surely defeat

[00:01:18] It's a loud voice

[00:01:20] And though it's not exactly flat

[00:01:21] She'll need a little more than that

[00:01:23] To earn a living wage

[00:01:25] On my knees Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:27] Please Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:28] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:01:32] Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:36] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:01:39] Though they said at the school of acting

[00:01:41] She was lovely as peer gynt

[00:01:42] I fear on the whole

[00:01:44] An ingé nue role

[00:01:45] Would emphasize her squint

[00:01:46] She's a big girl

[00:01:48] And though her teeth are fairly good

[00:01:50] She's not the type I ever would

[00:01:51] Be eager to engage

[00:01:53] No more buts Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:55] Nuts Mrs. Worthington

[00:01:57] Don't put your daughter on the stage
