Gilbert & Sullivan: The Mikado
For he's gone and married Yum-Yum
For he's gone and married Yum-Yum (Yum-Yum)
Your angry, pray bury, for all will be merry
I think you had better succumb (cumb, cumb)
And join our expressions of glee
On this subject I pray you be dumb (dumb, dumb)
Your notions, though many
Are not worth a penny
The word for your guidance is "mum" (mum, mum)
You've a very good bargain in me
On this subject we pray you be dumb (dumb, dumb)
We think you had better succumb (cumb, cumb)
You'll find there are many who wed for for a penny
Who wed for a penny
There are lots of good fish in the sea
There are lots of good fish in the sea
There's lots of good fish, good fish in the sea
There's lots of good fish, good fish
In the sea, in the sea, in the sea, in the sea, in the sea
The threatened cloud has passed away
And brightly shines the dawning day
What though the night may come too soon
We've years and years of afternoon!
Then let the throng
Then let the throng our joy advance
With laughing song
With laughing song and merry dance
Then let the throng our joy advance
With laughing song and merry dance
With laughing song and merry dance
With laughing song
With joyous shout
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate
Inaugurate their new career
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate their new career
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate their new career
With song and dance
Your angry, pray bury, for all will be merry
I think you had better succumb (cumb, cumb)
And join our expressions of glee
On this subject I pray you be dumb (dumb, dumb)
Your notions, though many
Are not worth a penny
The word for your guidance is "mum" (mum, mum)
You've a very good bargain in me
On this subject we pray you be dumb (dumb, dumb)
We think you had better succumb (cumb, cumb)
You'll find there are many who wed for for a penny
Who wed for a penny
There are lots of good fish in the sea
There are lots of good fish in the sea
There's lots of good fish, good fish in the sea
There's lots of good fish, good fish
In the sea, in the sea, in the sea, in the sea, in the sea
The threatened cloud has passed away
And brightly shines the dawning day
What though the night may come too soon
We've years and years of afternoon!
Then let the throng
Then let the throng our joy advance
With laughing song
With laughing song and merry dance
Then let the throng our joy advance
With laughing song and merry dance
With laughing song and merry dance
With laughing song
With joyous shout
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate
Inaugurate their new career
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate their new career
With joyous shout and ringing cheer
Inaugurate their new career
With song and dance
