No. 17 - Song - Molly - The toy monkey
| Molly: | Poor little maiden, who loves a bit of fun, Learns her propensity to rue! Just look at me! What a pretty thing I've done! Here's a delightful how-de-do! A precious pickle I'm in! Foolish little Molly, Punish'd for your folly. A wooden monkey climbin' Isn't on a stick like you! Click! Click! I'm a monkey on a stick! Any one with me can play, And my antics he'll enjoy, Till he finds a newer toy, When he'll wish me a polite good day! |
| Chorus: | Click! Click! I'm a monkey on a stick! Any one with me can play, And my antics he'll enjoy, Till he finds a newer toy, When he'll wish me a polite good day! |
| Molly: | Nobody doubts that this horrid Japanese Wives — orientally — has got! One, two, or three, or as many as you please-- I won't be added to the lot! He thinks I can't resist him; Rolling in his riches, Fancies he bewitches, But round my thumb I'll twist him, Whether he's aware or not! Click! Click! He's a monkey on a stick! Bound to let me have my way! So I'll keep him all alive Till my English friends arrive, When I'll wish him a polite good day! |
| Chorus: | Click! Click! He's a monkey on a stick! Bound to let me have my way! So I'll keep him all alive Till my English friends arrive, When I'll wish him a polite good day! |
