No. 6 - Trio - Dora, Nancy, and Susan
Dora: | We're dear little girls, you know, And dear little lives we've led, But still, I'm afraid, each dear little maid Has brains in her dear little head. |
Nancy: | And now for a day or so, One dear little maid's inclined To try, if she can, a dear little plan She's got in her dear little mind. |
Trio: | Oh, she and I and you Have such a lot to do; And we must not reveal the plot But try to keep it dark — I think, before we're done We're sure to have some fun. We all agree, oh, won't it be, Yes, won't it be a lark. Yes, won't it be a lark. |
Susan: | That dear little girl, today, As part of her deep laid plan, Will don, more or less, a masculine dress And look like a dear little man. |
Nancy: | This other will have to say That she is a wife, you see; Her dear little friend will try to pretend Her dear little husband to be. |
Trio: | Oh, she and I and you Have such a lot to do; And we must not reveal the plot But try to keep it dark — I think, before we're done We're sure to have some fun. We all agree, oh, won't it be, Yes, won't it be a lark. Yes, won't it be a lark! |
