No. 35 - Quartett - "Ambassador" Lyrics by Harry Greenbank

[Sir George:] Though neglected in the past,
They've created me at last
[All:] Ambassador! Ambassador!
[Smoggins:] And they'll call you home express
When you've got us in a mess,
[All:] Ambassador! Ambassador!
[Algernon:] But your blunders so diverting
All the papers will report,
[Madame Amelie:] And I know they'll catch you flirting
With the ladies of the Court,
[All:] Ambassador! Oh think of that!
Ambassador! With gold-laced hat!
We/They humbly bow before
This great Ambassador!

[Sir George:] My advice will carry weight
With some foreign potentate
[All:] Ambassador! Ambassador!
[Smoggins:] Check his mischievous desires
For despatching little wires,
[All:] Ambassador! Ambassador!
[Algernon:] But your diplomatic duty
Is to tell official lies,
[Madame Amelie:] Not to look at foreign beauty
With undiplomatic eyes!
[All:] Ambassador! Oh think of that!
Ambassador! With gold-laced hat!
We/They humbly bow before
This great Ambassador!
