Broadway Musicals - Once Upon A Mattress- Opening For A Princess текст песни

Dauntless:

Oh I liked her



Larken:

So did I!



Dauntless:

Why must every princess get the bird?



Lady:

(spoken)It's just absurd!



Lady:

(spoken)I've never heard a test so difficult to pass!



Dauntless:

Alas a lass is what I lack

I lack a lass, alas alack



Knights: Ladies:

Throuought the land

No one may wed till

Dauntless shares his Oh-------

Marriage bed!

The lonely spinster's life!

Go and get the prince a royal wife!



All:

We have an opening for a princess

For a genuine certified princess



Ladies:

Tell us when you intend

To end this dillemma we're in



Knights:

None of the ladies give

A fig for livin' in sin



All:

We have an opening for a princess

For a beautiful, bonafide princess



Ladies:

Where's the dutiful Knight

Who'll right all the wrongs we've been done?



Knights:

None of the ladies are havin' any fun!



Ladies: Knights:

What to do

What to do

What to do

What to do

Pity the ladies in waiting

Pity the gentlemen too (or two)

Four

Six

Eight



All:

Ten eleven twelve contenders in a row

They came, they were tested

Then swiftly requested to go

For a pricess

For a genuine certified princess



Ladies: Knights:

Tell us when you intend Ohh-----------

To send us a girl who can pass something...

Go and get the price a royal wife



Knights:

None of the ladies are havin' any



All:

No one is havin' any

No one is gettin' any younger

And it's been god-knows-how-long since

We've had an opening for a princess

Who's good enough,

Nice enough,

Sweet enough,

Smart enough,

Rich enough for our poor prince.
