《My Fair Lady， Act II: ”A Hymn to Him” (Henry Higgins)》歌词

[00:00:00] My Fair Lady, Act II: "A Hymn to Him" (Henry Higgins) - Alan Jay Lerner

[00:00:00] What in all of Heaven could have prompted her to go

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

[00:00:06] What could have depressed her

[00:00:07] What could have possessed her

[00:00:08] I cannot understand the wretch at all

[00:00:21] Women are irrational that's all there is to that

[00:00:24] Their heads are full of cotton hay and rags

[00:00:26] They're nothing but exasperating irritating vacillating

[00:00:29] Calculating agitating maddening and infuriating hags

[00:00:40] Why can't a woman be more like man

[00:00:45] Why can't a woman be more like man

[00:00:49] Men are so honest so thoroughly square

[00:00:52] Eternally noble historically fair

[00:00:56] Who when you win will always give your back a pat

[00:01:00] Why can't a woman be like that

[00:01:04] Why does every one do what the others do

[00:01:08] Can't a woman learn to use her head

[00:01:11] Why do they do everything their mothers do

[00:01:14] Why don't they grow up like their father instead

[00:01:18] Why can't a woman take after a man

[00:01:22] Men are so pleasant so easy to please

[00:01:25] Whenever you're with them you're always at ease

[00:01:29] Would you be slighted if I didn't speak for hours

[00:01:32] Of course not

[00:01:33] Would you be livid if I had a drink or two

[00:01:35] Nonsense

[00:01:36] Would you be wounded if I never sent you flowers

[00:01:39] Never

[00:01:39] Well why can't a woman be like you

[00:01:43] One man in a million may shout a bit

[00:01:47] Now and then there's one with slight defects

[00:01:51] One perhaps whose truthfulness you doubt a bit

[00:01:54] But by in large we are a marvelous sex

[00:01:57] Why can't a woman take after a man

[00:02:01] Men are so friendly good natured and kind

[00:02:04] A better companion you never will find

[00:02:08] If I were hours late for dinner would you bellow

[00:02:11] Of course not

[00:02:12] If I forgot your silly birthday would you fuss

[00:02:14] Nonsense

[00:02:15] Would you complain if I took out another fellow

[00:02:18] Never

[00:02:18] Why can't a woman be like us

[00:02:26] Why can't a woman be more like a man

[00:02:30] Men are so decent such regular chaps

[00:02:34] Ready to help you through any mishaps

[00:02:38] Ready to buck you up whenever you are glum

[00:02:41] Why can't a woman be a chum

[00:02:45] Why is thinking something women never do

[00:02:49] Why is logic never even tried

[00:02:52] Straightening up their hair is all they ever do

[00:02:56] Why don't they straighten up the mess that's inside

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

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

[00:03:07] Been hailed as a princess by one and by all

[00:03:10] Would I start weeping like a bathtub overflowing

[00:03:14] Carry on as if my home were in a tree

[00:03:17] Would I run off and never tell me where I'm going

[00:03:20] Why can't a woman be like me
