《Medley:Overture / Why Can’t the English?》歌词

[00:00:00] Medley:Overture / Why Can't the English? - Julie Andrews (茱莉·安德鲁斯)
[00:02:59] Look at her a prisoner of the gutter
[00:03:02] Condemned by every syllable she utters
[00:03:05] By right she should be taken out and hung
[00:03:08] For the cold-blooded murder of the English tongue
[00:03:11] Aaoooww
[00:03:12] Aaoooww
[00:03:14] Heavens what a noise
[00:03:16] This is what the British population
[00:03:19] Calls an elementary education
[00:03:22] Come sir I think you picked a poor example
[00:03:24] Did I
[00:03:26] Hear them down in Soho square
[00:03:29] Dropping "h's" everywhere
[00:03:30] Speaking English anyway they like
[00:03:34] You sir did you go to school
[00:03:36] Wadaya tike me for a fool
[00:03:38] No one taught him 'take' instead of 'tike'
[00:03:41] Hear a Yorkshireman or worse
[00:03:43] Hear a Cornishman converse
[00:03:45] I'd rather hear a choir singing flat
[00:03:48] Chickens cackling in a barn
[00:03:51] Just like this one here
[00:03:53] Garn
[00:03:55] I ask you sir what sort of word is that
[00:03:58] It's "Aaoooww" and
[00:04:00] "Garn" that keep her in her place
[00:04:02] Not her wretched clothes and dirty face
[00:04:06] Why can't the English teach
[00:04:08] Their children how to speak
[00:04:10] This verbal class distinction by now
[00:04:13] Should be antique
[00:04:14] If you spoke as she does sir
[00:04:16] Instead of the way you do
[00:04:18] Why you might be selling flowers too
[00:04:20] I beg your pardon
[00:04:21] An Englishman's way of
[00:04:23] Speaking absolutely classifies him
[00:04:25] The moment he talks he
[00:04:27] Makes some other Englishman despise him
[00:04:29] One common language
[00:04:30] I'm afraid we'll never get
[00:04:32] Oh why can't the English learn to
[00:04:36] Set a good example to people whose
[00:04:39] English is painful to your ears
[00:04:43] The Scots and the Irish leave you close to tears
[00:04:46] There even are places where
[00:04:48] English completely disappears
[00:04:51] In America they haven't used it for years
[00:04:55] Why can't the English teach
[00:04:56] Their children how to speak
[00:04:58] Norwegians learn Norwegian
[00:05:00] The Greeks are taught their Greek
[00:05:02] In France every Frenchman
[00:05:03] Knows his language from "A" to "Zed"
[00:05:06] The French never care what they do
[00:05:07] Actually as long as they pronounce it properly
[00:05:11] Arabians learn Arabian with
[00:05:13] The speed of summer lightning
[00:05:15] The Hebrews learn it backwards
[00:05:16] Which is absolutely frightening
[00:05:18] But use proper English
[00:05:20] And you're regarded as a freak
[00:05:22] Why can't the English
[00:05:26] Why can't the English learn
[00:05:29] To Speak
