A Puzzlement - Yul Brynner[00:00:00]
Written by:Rodgers/Hammerstein/RR[00:00:00]
There are times I almost think[00:00:11]
I am not sure of what I absolutely know[00:00:15]
Very often find confusion[00:00:20]
In conclusion I concluded long ago[00:00:22]
In my head are many facts[00:00:27]
That as a student I have studied to procure[00:00:28]
In my head are many facts[00:00:34]
Of which I wish I was more certain I was sure[00:00:35]
Is a puzzlement[00:00:44]
What to tell growing son[00:00:46]
What for instance shall I say to him of women[00:00:49]
Shall I educate him on the ancient lines[00:00:53]
Shall I tell the boy as far as he is able[00:00:57]
To respect his wives and love his concubines[00:01:01]
Shall I tell him everyone is like the other[00:01:06]
And the better of the two is really neither[00:01:10]
If I tell him this I think he won't believe it[00:01:15]
And I nearly think that I don't believe it either[00:01:19]
Shall I join with other nations in alliance[00:01:25]
If allies are weak am I not best alone[00:01:30]
If allies are strong with power to protect me[00:01:34]
Might they not protect me out of all I own[00:01:39]
Is a danger to be trusting one another[00:01:43]
One will seldom want to do what other wishes[00:01:48]
But unless someday somebody trust somebody[00:01:52]
There'll be nothing left on earth excepting fishes[00:01:57]
There are times I almost think[00:02:04]
Nobody sure of what he absolutely know[00:02:06]
Everybody find confusion[00:02:11]
In conclusion he concluded long ago[00:02:13]
And it puzzle me to learn[00:02:18]
That tho' a man may be in doubt of what he know[00:02:20]
Very quickly he will fight[00:02:25]
He'll fight to prove that what he does not know is so[00:02:27]
Oh sometimes I think that people going mad[00:02:36]
Ah sometimes I think that people not so bad[00:02:42]
But not matter what I think I must go on living life[00:02:49]
As leader of my kingdom I must go forth[00:02:53]
Be father to my children and husband to each wife[00:02:56]
Etcetera etcetera and so forth[00:02:59]
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha show the way[00:03:04]
Everyday I try to live another day[00:03:07]
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha show the way[00:03:11]
Everyday I do my best for one more day[00:03:14]
But is a puzzlement[00:03:21]
