No. 22 - Quartet - Peggy, Winnie, Sam, Frank and Chorus - "Good Night"
Lyrics by Arthur Wimperis
[Quartet:]
The Fates be kind to us tonight,
For we are in a horrid mess,
Two maidens in a woeful plight,
Two damsels fair in sore distress.
We vainly voice our/your girlish pain,
In vain with sobs we/you shape our/your curls
"Boys will be boys," you/we plead in vain,
For you're/we're the boys who would be girls.
[Chorus:]
The Fates be kind to you tonight,
For you are in a woeful plight.
Good-night! Good-night,
We're sorry that we have not been good
as young ladies should be,
Tonight into mischief alas we've been led,
And that's why we're pack'd off so early to bed.
Good-night, Good-night,
We're sorry that we have not been good
as young ladies should be,
Good-night, Good-night,
we're pack'd off to bed, good-night.
[Quartet:]
Good-night,
[Chorus:]
Good-night,
[Quartet:]
Good-night,
[Chorus:]
We're off to bed,
[All:]
Good-night!
