《Mrs. Worthington》歌词

[00:00:00] Mrs Worthington - John Moffat

[00:00:02] Don't put your daughter on the stage mrs worthington

[00:00:05] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:00:08] The profession is overcrowded

[00:00:10] And the struggle's pretty tough

[00:00:11] And admitting the fact

[00:00:12] She's burning to act

[00:00:13] That isn't quite enough

[00:00:14] She has nice hands

[00:00:16] Give the wretched girl her due

[00:00:18] But don't you think her bust is too

[00:00:20] Developed for her age

[00:00:21] I repeat mrs worthington

[00:00:23] Sweet mrs worthington

[00:00:25] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:00:28] Regarding yours

[00:00:30] Dear mrs worthington

[00:00:31] Of wednesday the twenty third

[00:00:34] Although your baby

[00:00:35] May be keen on a stage career

[00:00:38] How can I make it clear

[00:00:40] This is not a good idea

[00:00:42] For her to hope

[00:00:43] Dear mrs worthington

[00:00:45] Is on the face of it absurd

[00:00:48] Her personality

[00:00:50] Is not in reality

[00:00:51] Exciting enough

[00:00:52] Inviting enough

[00:00:53] For this particular sphere

[00:00:55] Don't put your daughter on the stage mrs worthington

[00:00:58] Don't put your daughter on the stage

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

[00:01:03] You must honestly confess

[00:01:05] And the width of her seat

[00:01:06] Would surely defeat

[00:01:06] Her chances of success

[00:01:08] It's a loud voice

[00:01:10] And though it's not exactly flat

[00:01:11] She'll need a little more than that

[00:01:13] To earn a living wage

[00:01:14] On my knees mrs worthington

[00:01:16] Please mrs worthington

[00:01:18] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:01:21] Don't put your daughter on the stage mrs worthington

[00:01:25] Don't put your daughter on the stage

[00:01:28] Though they said at the school of acting

[00:01:29] She was lovely as peer gynt

[00:01:31] I fear on the whole

[00:01:32] An ingénue role

[00:01:33] Would emphasize her squint

[00:01:34] She's a big girl

[00:01:36] And though her teeth are fairly good

[00:01:38] She's not the type I ever would

[00:01:39] Be eager to engage

[00:01:41] No more buts mrs worthington

[00:01:43] Nuts mrs worthington

[00:01:45] Don't put your daughter on the stage
