Testo A Little Night Music: In Praise of Women - Laurence Guittard

Testo della canzone A Little Night Music: In Praise of Women (Laurence Guittard), tratta dall'album A Little Night Music (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

She wouldn't
Therefore, they didn't
So then, it wasn't
Not unless it's - Would he?
She doesn't
God knows she needn't
Therefore, it's not
He'd never
Therefore, they haven't
Which makes the question absolutely -
Could he?
She daren't
Therefore, I mustn't
What utter rot!
Fidelity is more than mere display
It's what a man expects from life
Fidelity like mine to Desiree
And Charlotte, my devoted wife
The papers
He mentioned papers
Some legal papers which I didn't see there
Where were they?
The goddamn papers
She had to sign
What nonsense
He brought her papers
They were important, so he had to be there
I'll kill him
Why should I bother?
The woman's mine
Besides, no matter what one might infer
One must have faith to some degree
The least that I can do is trust in her
The way that Charlotte trusts in me
Capable, pliable women
Women
Undemanding and reliable
Knowing their place
Insufferable, yes, but gentle
Their weaknesses are incidental
A functional, but ornamental race
Durable, sensible women
Women
Very nearly indispensable creatures of grace
God knows the foolishness about them
But if one had to live without them
The world would surely be a poorer, if purer, place
The hip bath
About that hip bath
How can you slip and trip into a hip bath?
The papers
Where were the papers?
Of course, he might have taken back the papers
She wouldn't
Therefore they didn't
The woman's mine!
