Hammerstein Oscar Lyrics
A Puzzlement Reprise Lyrics
Prince:
There are time I almost think
They are not sure of what they absolutely know.
Louis:
I believe they are confused
About conclusions they concluded long ago.
Prince:
If my father and your mother are not sure of what they absolutely know,
Can you tell me why they fight?
Louis:
They fight to prove that what they do not know is so!
Prince:
Oh-hhhhh!
Sometimes I think that people going mad
Louis:
Ah-h-h-h-h-h!
Sometimes I think that people [speaks]-not so bad.
Prince:
But not matter what I think
I must go on living life.
And someday as a leader I must go forth,
Be father to my children and husband to each wife
Etcetera, etcetera, and so forth.
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha, show the way,
Everyday I try to live another day.
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha, show the way,
Everyday I do my best for one-more day!
But-
Louis:
[Spoken]
is a puzzlement
