ฟังเพลงSullivan: 7. Behold The Lord High Executioner

Act 1 - 7. Behold The Lord High Executioner - Peter Pratt/The D'Oyly Carte Opera Chorus/The New Symphony Orchestra Of London/Isidore Godfrey

Behold the Lord High Executioner

A personage of noble rank and title

A dignified and potent officer

Whose functions are particularly vital

Defer defer

To the Lord High Executioner

Defer defer

To the noble Lord to the noble Lord

To the Lord High Executioner

Taken from the county jail

By a set of curious chances

Liberated then on bail

On my own recognizances

Wafted by a favouring gale

As one sometimes is in trances

To a height that few can scale

Save by long and weary dances

Surely never had a male

Under such like circumstances

So adventurous a tale

Which may rank with most romances

Taken from the county jail

By a set of curious chances

Surely never had a male

So adventurous a tale

Defer defer

To the Lord High Executioner

Defer defer

To the noble Lord

To the noble Lord High Executioner

Bow down bow down

To the Lord High Executioner

Defer defer

To the noble noble Lord

To the High Executioner
