《Hymn to Him》歌词

[00:00:00] Lerner & Loewe - Hymn To Him

[00:00:01] What in all of heaven could've promted her to go

[00:00:03] After such a triumph as the ball

[00:00:07] What could've depressed her;

[00:00:08] What could've possessed her

[00:00:10] I cannot understand the wretch at all

[00:00:11]

[00:00:27] Women are irrational that's all there is to that

[00:00:30] There heads are full of cotton hay and rags

[00:00:33] They're nothing but exasperating irritating

[00:00:35] Vacillating calculating agitating

[00:00:37] Maddening and infuriating hags

[00:00:47] Pickering why can't a woman be more like a man

[00:00:55] Hmm

[00:00:57] Yes

[00:00:57] Why can't a woman be more like a man

[00:01:01] Men are so honest so thoroughly square;

[00:01:04] Eternally noble historic'ly fair;

[00:01:07] Who when you win will always give your back a pat

[00:01:11] Well why can't a woman be like that

[00:01:14] Why does ev'ryone do what the others do

[00:01:18] Can't a woman learn to use her head

[00:01:21] Why do they do ev'rything their mothers do

[00:01:24] Why don't they grow up- well like their father instead

[00:01:28] Why can't a woman take after a man

[00:01:31] Men are so pleasant so easy to please;

[00:01:34] Whenever you are with them you're always at ease

[00:01:37] Would you be slighted if I didn't speak for hours

[00:01:40] Of course not

[00:01:41] Would you be livid if I had a drink or two

[00:01:43] Nonsense

[00:01:44] Would you be wounded if I never sent you flowers

[00:01:47] Never

[00:01:47] Well why can't a woman be like you

[00:01:51] One man in a million may shout a bit

[00:01:54] Now and then there's one with slight defects;

[00:01:58] One perhaps whose truthfulness you doubt a bit

[00:02:01] But by and large we are a marvelous sex

[00:02:05] Why can't a woman take after like a man

[00:02:08] Cause men are so friendly good natured and kind

[00:02:11] A better companion you never will find

[00:02:15] If I were hours late for dinner would you bellow

[00:02:17] Of course not

[00:02:18] If I forgot your silly birthday would you fuss

[00:02:20] Nonsense

[00:02:21] Would you complain if I took out another fellow

[00:02:24] Never

[00:02:24] Well why can't a woman be like us

[00:02:27] Mrs Pearce you're a woman

[00:02:36] Why can't a woman be more like a man

[00:02:40] Men are so decent such regular chaps

[00:02:43] Ready to help you through any mishaps

[00:02:46] Ready to buck you up whenever you are glum

[00:02:49] Why can't a woman be a chum

[00:02:53] Why is thinking something women never do

[00:02:56] Why is logic never even tried

[00:03:00] Straight'ning up their hair is all they ever do

[00:03:03] Why don't they straighten up the mess that's inside

[00:03:07] Why can't a woman behave like a man

[00:03:10] If I was a woman who'd been to a ball

[00:03:13] Been hailed as a princess by one and by all;

[00:03:16] Would I start weeping like a bathtub overflowing

[00:03:20] And carry on as if my home were in a tree

[00:03:23] Would I run off and never tell me where I'm going

[00:03:26] Why can't a woman be like me
