Mrs Worthington - Noel Coward[00:00:00]

Written by：Coward[00:00:01]

Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington[00:00:08]

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[00:00:18]

She's burning to act[00:00:19]

That isn't quite enough[00:00:20]

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[00:00:27]

I repeat Mrs Worthington[00:00:28]

Sweet Mrs Worthington[00:00:30]

Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:00:32]

Regarding yours[00:00:36]

Dear Mrs Worthington[00:00:38]

Of Wednesday the twenty third[00:00:40]

Although your baby[00:00:42]

May be keen on a stage career[00:00:44]

How can I make it clear[00:00:46]

This is not a good idea[00:00:48]

For her to hope[00:00:50]

Dear Mrs Worthington[00:00:52]

Is on the face of it absurd[00:00:53]

Her personality[00:00:57]

Is not in reality[00:00:58]

Exciting enough[00:01:00]

Inviting enough[00:01:01]

For this particular sphere[00:01:02]

Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington[00:01:03]

Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:07]

She's a bit of an ugly duckling[00:01:10]

You must honestly confess[00:01:12]

And the width of her seat[00:01:14]

Would surely defeat[00:01:15]

Her chances of success[00:01:16]

It's a loud voice[00:01:17]

And though it's not exactly flat[00:01:19]

She'll need a little more than that[00:01:21]

To earn a living wage[00:01:22]

On my knees Mrs Worthington[00:01:24]

Please Mrs Worthington[00:01:26]

Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:28]

Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington[00:01:31]

Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:35]

Though they said at the school of acting[00:01:38]

She was lovely as Peer Gynt[00:01:40]

I'm afraid on the whole[00:01:42]

An ingénue role[00:01:43]

Would emphasize her squint[00:01:44]

She's a big girl[00:01:45]

And though her teeth are fairly good[00:01:47]

She's not the type I ever would[00:01:49]

Be eager to engage[00:01:50]

No more but Mrs Worthington[00:01:52]

Nuts Mrs Worthington[00:01:54]

Don't put your daughter on the stage[00:01:56]
