Gilbert And Sullivan The Grand Duke (Or The Statutory Duel) Act I Duet - Ludwig And Lisa LUD: Pretty Lisa, fair and tasty, Tell me now, and tell me truly, Haven't you been rather hasty? Haven't you been rash unduly? Am I quite the dashing sposo That your fancy could depict you? Perhaps you think I'm only so-so? (She expresses admiration.) Well, I will not contradict you! CHORUS: No, he will not contradict you! LISA: Who am I to raise objection? I'm a child, untaught and homely-- When you tell me you're perfection, Tender, truthful, true, and comely-- That in quarrel no one's bolder, Though dissensions always grieve you-- Why, my love, you're so much older That, of course, I must believe you! CHORUS: Yes, of course, she must believe you! CHORUS: If he ever acts unkindly, Shut your eyes and love him blindly-- Should he call you names uncomely, Shut your mouth and love him dumbly-- Should he rate you, rightly--leftly-- Shut your ears and love him deafly. Ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! Thus and thus and thus alone Ludwig's wife may hold her own! |
