Now then, my friend
Now to your purpose
Patience, enjoy it
Revenge can't be taken in haste
Make haste, and if we wed
You'll be commended, sir
My lord
And who may it be said
Is your intended, sir?
My ward
And pretty as a rosebud
As pretty as her mother?
What? What was that?
Oh, nothing, sir
Nothing
May we proceed?
Pretty women
Fascinating
Sipping coffee
Dancing
Pretty women
Are a wonder
Pretty women
Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them
Cheers the air
Pretty women
Silhouetted
Stay within you
Glancing
Stay forever
Breathing lightly
Pretty women
Pretty women!
Blowing out their candles or
Combing out their hair
Then they leave
Even when they leave you (even when they leave)
And vanish, they somehow (they still)
Can still remain
There with you (are here)
There with you (they're there)
Ah, pretty women
At their mirrors
In their gardens
Letter-writing
Flower-picking
Weather-watching
How they make a man sing
Proof of heaven
As you're living
Pretty women, sir!
Pretty women, yes! Pretty women, sir
Pretty women! Pretty women
Johanna marries me Sunday
Everything's set, we leave tonight
You!
Judge Turpin!
There is indeed a higher power to warn me thus in time! Johanna, elope with you?
I will lock her up in some obscure retreat
Where neither you nor any other vile corrupting youth shall ever lay eyes on her again!
But, sir, I beg of you!
And as for you, barber! It's all too clear what company you keep
Service them well and hold their custom for you will have none of mine!
