Don't Put Your Daughter On The Stage Mrs. Worthington - Noel Coward[00:00:00]
Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Washington[00:00:07]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:00:11]
The profession is overcrowded[00:00:14]
And the struggle's pretty tough[00:00:16]
And admitting the fact[00:00:17]
She's burning to act[00:00:18]
That isn't quite enough[00:00:19]
She has nice hands[00:00:21]
Give the wretched girl her due[00:00:23]
But don't you think her bust is too[00:00:25]
Developed for her age[00:00:26]
I repeat Mrs Washington[00:00:28]
Sweet Mrs Washington[00:00:29]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:00:31]
Regarding yours[00:00:35]
Dear Mrs Washington[00:00:37]
Of Wednesday the twenty-third[00:00:39]
Although your baby[00:00:42]
May be keen on a stage career[00:00:43]
How can I make it clear[00:00:45]
This is not a good idea[00:00:47]
For her to hope[00:00:49]
Dear Mrs Washington[00:00:51]
Is on the face of it absurd[00:00:53]
Her personality[00:00:56]
Is not in reality[00:00:57]
Exciting enough[00:00:59]
Inviting enough[00:01:00]
For this particular sphere[00:01:01]
Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Washington[00:01:03]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:06]
She's a bit of an ugly duckling[00:01:09]
You must honestly confess[00:01:11]
And the width of her seat[00:01:13]
Would surely defeat[00:01:14]
Her chances of success[00:01:14]
It's a loud voice[00:01:16]
And though it's not exactly flat[00:01:18]
She'll need a little more than that[00:01:20]
To earn a living wage[00:01:22]
On my knees Mrs Washington[00:01:23]
Please Mrs Washington[00:01:25]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:27]
Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Washington[00:01:30]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:34]
Though they said at the school of acting[00:01:37]
She was lovely as peer gent[00:01:39]
I fear on the whole[00:01:41]
An ingenue role[00:01:42]
Would emphasize her squint[00:01:42]
She's a big girl[00:01:44]
And though her teeth are fairly good[00:01:46]
She's not the type I ever would[00:01:48]
Be eager to engage[00:01:49]
No more buts Mrs Washington[00:01:50]
Nuts Mrs Washington[00:01:53]
Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:54]
