Man to Man Talk Lyrics[JESTER, spoken]
Dauntless, your father wants to have a little personal chat with you. It's very important. Do your duty, sire
[DAUNTLESS, spoken]
What is it, Papa? What do you want to talk about? Stop. Look. Listen
(sung)
Boy—flower
Girl—flower
Boy flower, girl flower
Oh, tell me more
I want to know about what getting married is for
(spoken)
Seed, fall, from girl flower
(sung)
And by and by
Baby flower—grow
Ah, but why?
Oh, tell me why
Oh, Father, tell me, tell me
Father don't be shy
Boy flower, girl flower
Love each other
Boy flower, father—girl flower, mother
Yes, yes, but how?
It's very interesting, but how?
Oh, tell me now
(spoken)
Oh. Bee, on boy flower. Boy flower dust—gets on bee. Bee flies to girl flower. Dust touches girl flower seed! Oh, I see!
(sung)
No, I don't see
It's very int'resting
But still not clear to me
(spoken)
Woman—is like girl flower. Man—is like bee and like boy flower, wha—? Man, that's me!
(sung)
But tell me more
I've got to know about what getting married is for!
(spoken)
Sounds like—carry. Sounds like carry—marry! Oh! Man and woman get married. Winnifred in white. Love each other. Knight—night. One night
(sung)
Yes, yes, one night
It's very int'resting what happens in the night
What happens?
What happens?
Oh, tell me, Father, please
Shall I go and pick some flowers?
Shall I go and catch some bees?
(spoken)
Princess Winnifred, and I, will wrestle? Upside down?
The stork? Stork will come and bring us a baby? Oh, Papa. I know all about the stork. Mama told me about the stork years ago. Wait a minute, Papa
(sung)
Flower, seed, man, woman, bee, small
It isn't the stork
It isn't the stork
It isn't the stork at all!
Oh, life is grand!
It's very int'resting
I think I understand
I think, I think, I know
It's very int'resting
Thank you, Father
And Father, I love you so!
