[00:00.00]Oh! A Private Buffoon (哦!一间私家小丑) (from 'The Yeomen Of The Guard' Act 2) - Syria Lamonte/Miss Marwood
[00:08.25]OH
[00:08.59]A private buffoon is a light hearted loon
[00:10.67]If you listen to popular rumour;
[00:12.53]From the morn to the night
[00:13.80]He's so joyous and bright
[00:14.78]And he bubbles with wit and good humour
[00:16.93]He's so quaint and so terse
[00:18.05]Both in prose and in verse
[00:19.32]Yet though people forgive his transgressions;
[00:21.45]There are one or two rules
[00:23.30]That all family fools must observe
[00:26.05]If they love their profession
[00:27.43]
[00:27.99]There are one or two rules
[00:29.59]Half a dozen maybe
[00:30.67]That all family fools of what ever degree
[00:32.77]
[00:33.93]Must observe if they love their profession
[00:35.92]
[00:39.35]If you wish to succeed as a jester
[00:41.34]You'll need to consider each person's auricular
[00:43.81]What is all right for B would quite scandalize C
[00:46.23]For C is so very particular;
[00:48.27]And D may be dull
[00:49.56]And E's very thick skull is
[00:50.76]As empty of brains as a ladle;
[00:52.92]While F is F sharp
[00:54.67]And will cry with a carp
[00:56.27]
[00:56.83]That he's known your best joke from his cradle
[00:59.48]When your humour they flout
[01:00.97]Can't let you go
[01:02.02]And it does put you out
[01:03.50]When person says
[01:04.33]Oh
[01:04.98]
[01:05.61]I've known that old joke from my cradle
[01:07.67]
[01:10.98]Comes a Bishop maybe
[01:12.33]Or a solemn D D Oh
[01:13.53]Beware of his anger provoking
[01:15.45]Better not pull his hair
[01:16.84]Don't stick pins in his chair
[01:18.18]He don't understand practical joking
[01:20.21]If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack
[01:22.63]You may get a bland smile form these sages;
[01:24.93]But should they
[01:25.60]By chance be imported from France
[01:28.45]
[01:29.00]Half a crown is stopped of from your wages
[01:31.51]
[01:32.18]It's a general rule
[01:33.22]Though your zeal it may quench
[01:34.71]If the family fool tells a joke that's too french
[01:37.21]
[01:38.10]Half a crown is stopped out of his wages
[01:40.09]
[01:43.98]Though your head it may rack with a bilious attack
[01:46.48]And your senses with tooth ache your losing
[01:48.71]Don't be mopy and flat
[01:49.80]They don't fine you for that
[01:51.18]If your properly quaint and amusing
[01:52.97]
[01:53.58]Though your wife ran away
[01:54.82]With a soldier that day
[01:56.16]And took with her your trifle of money;
[01:58.05]
[01:58.92]Bless your heart they don't mind
[02:00.65]
[02:01.25]They're exceedingly kind
[02:02.73]
[02:03.46]They don't blame you as long as you're funny
[02:06.13]
[02:06.80]It's a comfort to feel
[02:08.42]If your partner should flit
[02:09.59]Though you suffer a deal
[02:10.85]They don't mind it a bit
[02:12.26]
[02:13.62]They don't blame you so long as your funny
