Only think, a Duke and a Duchess!
No. 4, Sung by Minestra and Chorus
 MIDI File 2 minutes 9 seconds
Girls.
- Only think, a Duke and
Duchess!
- Oh, but we are lucky lasses!
- Hie we to our looking-glasses
- For a few artistic touches.
- Let us decorate our tresses
- Ere the grand procession passes,
- And receive the upper classes
- In our most becoming dresses!
Minestra.
- Go and wash your pretty faces,
- Dress in ribbons and in laces,
- Or expect from both their Graces
- A well-merited rebuke;
- And your hair I pray you frizz it —
- For it isn’t often — is it? —
- That you’re favoured with a visit
- From a Duchess and a Duke!
- For it isn’t often — is it? —
- That you’re favoured with a visit
- From a Duchess and a Duke!
All.
- Yes, we’ll wash our pretty faces,
- Dress in ribbons and in laces,
- For it isn’t often — is it? —
- That we’re favoured with a visit
- From a Duke and a Duchess,
- From a Duchess and a Duke!
- For it isn’t often — is it? —
- That we’re favoured with a visit
- From a Duke and a Duchess,
- From a Duchess and a Duke!
- For it isn’t often — is it? —
- That we’re favoured with a visit
- From a Duke and a Duchess,
- From a Duchess and a Duke!
Exeunt Girls — all but Minestra.
