Lyrics

A woman is a female who is human
Designed for pleasing man, the human male
A human male is pleased by many women
And all the rest you hear is fairy tale
Then tell me how this fairy tale began, sir
You cannot call it just a poet's trick
Explain to me why many men are faithful
And true to one wife only
They are sick!
(sung)
A girl must be like a blossom
With honey for just one man
A man must be like honey bee
And gather all he can
To fly from blossom to blossom
A honey bee must be free
But blossom must not ever fly
From bee to bee to bee
H your Majesty, in my country we have a far off different attitude
We believe that for a man to be truly happy
He must love one woman and one woman
This idea was invented by a woman!
Oh but it's a beautiful idea
And in England we are brought up with it
And by the time a young girl goes to her first dance
Young girl? They dance also like I see tonight
In arms of men not her husband?
Well, of course!
I will not permit!
