The King And I - Shall I Tell You What I Think Of You? - Sözleri

ANNA



Your servant! Your servant! 

Indeed I'm not you servant -- 

Although you give me less than servant's pay --

I'm a free and independent employé [pronounced "employay"]...(sigh) employee. 



Because I'm a woman 

You think, like ev'ry woman 

I have to be a slave or concubine.

You conceited, self-indulgent libertine! ...(sigh) libertine! [pronounced "liberteen"]



How I wish I called him that! 

Right to his face! Libertine! 

And while we're on the subject, sire, 

There are certain goings on around this place 

That I wish to tell you I do not admire: 

I do not like polygamy 

Or even moderate bigamy 

I realize 

That in your eyes 

That clearly makes a prig o' me.



But I am from a civilized land called Wales!

Where men like you are locked in county jails! 

In your pursuit of pleasure, you 

Have mistresses who treasure you 



They have no ken of other men 

Beside whom they can measure you



A flock of sheep and you're the only ram

No wonder you're the wonder of Siam! 



(Spoken) I'm rather glad I didn't say that... not with the women right there...and the children



(Singing) The children, the children, 

I'll not forget the children, 

No matter where I go I'll always see 

Those little faces looking up at me... 



At first, when I started to teach, 

They were shy and remained out of reach, 

But lately I've thought 

One or two have been caught

By a word I have said

Or a sentence I've read 

And I've heard an occasional question 

That implied, at least, a suggestion 

That the work I've been trying to do 

Was beginning to show with a few... 



That Prince Chululongkorn 

Is very like his father. 

He's stubborn-but inquisitive and smart... 

I must leave this place before they break my heart 

I must leave this place before they break my heart! 



Goodness! I had no idea it was so late. 



Shall It tell you what I think of you? 

You're spoiled! 

You're a conscientious worker 

But your spoiled. 

Giving credit where it's due 

There is much I like in you

But it's also very true 

That your spoiled! 

Everybody's always bowing to the King

Everybody has to grovel to the King. 

By your Buddha you are blessed 

By your ladies you're caressed, 

But the one who loves you best is the King. 



All that bowing and kow-towing 

To remind you of your royalty, 

I find a most disgusting exhibition.

I wouldn't ask a Siamese cat 

To demonstrate his loyalty 

By taking this ridiculous position 

How would you like it if you were a man

Playing the part of a toad. 

Crawling around on your elbows and knees. 

Eating the dust of the road!... 



Toads! Toads! All of your people are toads! 

Yes, Your Majesty; 

No, Your Majesty. 

Tell us how low to go, Your Majesty;

Make some more decrees, Your Majesty, 

Don't let us up off out knees, Your Majesty. 

Give us a kick, if you please Your Majesty 

Give us a kick, if you would, Your Majesty 

Oh, That was good, Your Majesty!
