Patience: When I First Put This Uniform On

Patience: When I First Put This Uniform On - Glyndebourne Festival Chorus[00:00:00]

When I first put this uniform on[00:00:09]

I said as I looked in the glass[00:00:11]

It's one to a million[00:00:13]

That any civilian[00:00:15]

My figure and form will surpass[00:00:16]

Gold lace has a charm for the fair[00:00:18]

And I've plenty of that and to spare[00:00:20]

While a lover's professions[00:00:22]

When uttered in Hessians[00:00:24]

Are eloquent everywhere[00:00:25]

A fact that I counted upon[00:00:27]

When I first put this uniform on[00:00:29]

By a simple coincidence few[00:00:32]

Could ever have counted upon[00:00:34]

The same thing occurred to me[00:00:36]

When I first put this uniform on[00:00:38]

I said when I first put it on[00:00:41]

It is plain to the veriest dunce[00:00:43]

That every beauty[00:00:45]

Will feel it her duty[00:00:47]

To yield to its glamour at once[00:00:48]

They will see that I'm freely gold-laced[00:00:50]

In a uniform handsome and chaste[00:00:52]

But the peripatetics[00:00:55]

Of long-haired aesthetics[00:00:56]

Are very much more to their taste[00:00:57]

Which I never counted upon[00:00:59]

When I first put this uniform on[00:01:01]

By a simple coincidence few[00:01:04]

Could ever have counted upon[00:01:06]

I didn't anticipate that[00:01:09]

When I first put this uniform on[00:01:11]
