No. 2 - Song - Miyo - "Honourable Jappy Bride"
Miyo: | Honourable Jappy bride, When she's tied Up in marriage, Must not be heard To say one word Her husband to disparage. Honourable English dame Not the same, She's far bolder; Of nobody does she stand in awe, To hubby she soon lays down the law, If he begins to scold her. Some day I may Be most tip-top married little lady; Oh my! Won't I Have my way in ev'rything I do! I'll find Nice, kind, High class, six foot, amicable bridegroom, So it's no use Thinking of a silly little boy like you! |
Honourable Jappy wife Leads a life; Rather lonely; No fun she has, She's treated as A pet or plaything only. Honourable English ma'am, No meek lamb of the tame sort; She never get snubb'd or push'd aside. I'm certain when I become a bride I'd like to be the same sort. Some day I may Be most tip-top married little lady; Oh my! Won't I Have my way in ev'rything I do! I'll find Nice, kind, High class, six foot, amicable bridegroom, So it's no use Thinking of a silly little boy like you! |
