English Lyrics:
My dear marquis, a man like you
Should better understand that,
Therefore, I advise you to look more
Closely at people!
This hand is surely far too fine, hahaha
This foot so dainty and small, hahaha.
The manner of speaking which I have,
My waist, my bustle,
These would never be found
On a lady's maid!
You really must admit,
This mistake was very comical!
Yes, very comical, hahaha,
Is this matter, hahaha.
So pardon me, hahaha,
If I laugh, ha ha ha!
Yes, very comical, hahaha,
Is this matter, hahaha!
You are very comical, Marquis!
With this profile in Grecian style
Being a gift of nature;
If this face doesn't say enough,
Just look at my figure!
Just look through your lorgnette, ah
At this outfit, ah
It seems to me that love
Has clouded your eyes,
The image of your chambermaid
Has quite filled your heart!
Now you see her everywhere,
This is truly a very comic situation!
Yes very comical, hahaha
Is this matter, ha ha ha ,
So pardon me , ha ha ha,
If I laugh, ha ha ha!
Yes very comical, ha ha ha,
Is this matter, ha ha ha , etc.
German Lyrics:
Mein Herr Marquis, ein Mann wie Sie
Sollt' besser das verstehn,
Darum rate ich, ja genauer sich
Die Leute anzusehen!
Die Hand ist doch wohl gar zo fein, hahaha.
Dies Füsschen so zierlich und klein, hahaha. T
Die Sprache, die ich führe
Die Taille, die Tournüre,
Dergleichen finden Sie
Bei einer Zofe nie!
Gestehn müssen Sie fürwahr,
Sehr komisch dieser Irrtum war!
Ja, sehr komisch, hahaha,
Ist die Sache, hahaha.
Drum verzeihn Sie, hahaha,
Wenn ich lache, hahaha!
Ja, sehr komisch, hahaha
Ist die Sache, hahaha!
Sehr komisch, Herr Marquis, sind Sie!
Mit dem Profil im griech'schen Stil
Beschenkte mich Natur:
Wenn nicht dies Gesicht schon genügend spricht,
So sehn Sie die Figur!
Schaun durch die Lorgnette Sie dann, ah,
Sich diese Toilette nur an, ah
Mir scheint wohl, die Liebe
Macht Ihre Augen trübe,
Der schönen Zofe Bild
Hat ganz Ihr Herz erfüllt!
Nun sehen Sie sie überall,
Sehr komisch ist fürwahr der Fall!
Ja, sehr komisch, hahaha
Ist die Sache, hahaha
Drum verzeihn Sie, hahaha,
Wenn ich lache, hahaha!
Ja, sehr komisch, hahaha,
Ist die Sache, hahaha etc.
