Mock Mozart - Peter Ustinov/Richard Murdoch/Graham Moffatt[00:00:00]

Written by：Porter/Swann[00:00:01]

Now listen please[00:00:03]

I'll tell you confidentially[00:00:05]

How adcs[00:00:07]

Are trained in social grace[00:00:08]

They must be brave[00:00:11]

For daily[00:00:12]

They're called upon to save[00:00:12]

His excellency's face[00:00:15]

Any explanation[00:00:19]

Of the duties of an adc[00:00:20]

Proves the complications[00:00:22]

That are rife at government house[00:00:23]

Certain situations[00:00:25]

They could never let a lady see[00:00:27]

There are strange vibrations[00:00:29]

In the life of government house[00:00:30]

Truth is often sacrificed[00:00:32]

For reasons of diplomacy[00:00:34]

That of course you understand[00:00:36]

But all the same[00:00:38]

It must be grand[00:00:38]

To be[00:00:40]

So suave[00:00:40]

So calm[00:00:41]

So dignified[00:00:42]

If you knew what all that signified[00:00:43]

They[00:00:47]

Who break the ninth commandment every day[00:00:49]

Would hang their heads in shame and say[00:00:52]

'Forgive[00:00:55]

We have[00:00:55]

To live[00:00:56]

Officially on feet of clay'[00:00:57]

Every minute[00:01:01]

We're made to sin it[00:01:02]

Is really very depraved[00:01:03]

But to hell with the lies we tell[00:01:05]

His excellency's honour must be saved[00:01:07]

His excellency regrets[00:01:16]

That owing to an attack of gout[00:01:17]

He really dare not venture out[00:01:19]

On saturday to dine[00:01:21]

His excellency regrets[00:01:23]

That owing to doctor's orders[00:01:25]

He cannot attend the mission tea[00:01:26]

And also must decline[00:01:28]

Your kind invitation[00:01:30]

For wednesday week[00:01:32]

A slight operation[00:01:33]

And poor circulation[00:01:35]

Combined with a weedy physique[00:01:37]

Has made him unable to speak[00:01:39]

All this in addition to what[00:01:40]

The doctors describe as a clot[00:01:42]

Which may disappear[00:01:44]

By the end of the year[00:01:45]

But may very possibly not[00:01:46]

His excellency regrets[00:01:48]

That owing to his exalted state[00:01:50]

He can no more associate[00:01:52]

With amiable brunettes[00:01:54]

Walk up walk up[00:01:56]

We're willing to take your bets[00:01:57]

That that's one of the principal things[00:01:59]

His excellency regrets[00:02:01]

So now you know[00:02:02]

About the diplomatic corps[00:02:04]

How it can so[00:02:06]

Corrupt the soul of youth[00:02:07]

What happen if[00:02:10]

Someday they gave the waiting world a whiff[00:02:11]

Of plain unvarnished truth[00:02:13]

His excellency regrets[00:02:17]

That failing a better alibi[00:02:19]

He must admit he'd rather die[00:02:21]

Than open your bazaar[00:02:22]

His excellency regrets[00:02:24]

That lacking enough official scope[00:02:26]

He can't disband the band of hope[00:02:28]

No matter where they are[00:02:30]

He frankly despises[00:02:31]

The people he rules[00:02:33]

His gorge also rises[00:02:35]

When giving the prizes[00:02:37]

At co educational schools[00:02:38]

To rows of illiterate fools[00:02:40]

And if you should write in the book[00:02:42]

He'll give you a murderous look[00:02:44]

For it ruins his day[00:02:46]

To be taken away[00:02:47]

From his rod and his line and his hook[00:02:48]

His excellency regrets[00:02:50]

He hasn't enough to run the house[00:02:52]

Or pay the staff or feed a mouse[00:02:54]

Upon the pay he gets[00:02:55]

Hey ho hey ho[00:02:57]

He's up to his ears in debts[00:02:59]

But that's one of the least of the things his excellency regrets[00:03:01]
