[PISH-TUSH] Our great Mikado, virtuous man When he to rule our land began Resolved to try A plan whereby Young men might best be steadied So he decreed, in words succinct That all who flirted, leered or winked (Unless connubially linked) Should forthwith be beheaded Beheaded, beheaded Should forthwith be beheaded And I expect you'll all agree That he was right to so decree And I am right And you are right And all is right as right can be! [Chorus] And you are right And we are right And all is right, is right as right can be! [PISH-TUSH & Chorus] And all is right as right can be Right as right can be! [PISH-TUSH] This stem decree, you'll understand Caused great dismay throughout the land! For young and old And shy and bold Were equally affected The youth who winked a roving eye Or breathed a non-connubial sigh Was thereupon condemned to die - He usually objected Objected, objected He usually objected And you'll allow, as I expect That he was right to so object And I am right And you are right And everything is quite correct! [Chorus] And you are right And we are right And everything is quite, is quite correct! [PISH-TUSH & Chorus] And everything is quite correct All is quite correct! [PISH-TUSH] And so we straight let out on bail A convict from the county jail Whose head was next On some pretext Condemned to be mown off And made him Headsman, for we said "Who's next to be decapited Cannot cut off another's head Until he's cut his own off His own off, his own off Until he's cut his own off." And we are right, I think you'll say To argue in this kind of way; And I am right And you are right And all is right - too-loo-ral-lay! [Chorus] And you are right And we are right And all is right - too-loo-ral, loo-ral-lay! [PISH-TUSH & Chorus] And you are right And we are right And all is right!
