The King And I

Song Of The King

KING



A woman is a female who is human,

Designed for pleasing man, the human male.

A human male is pleased by many women,

And all the rest you hear is fairy tale.



ANNA



Then tell me how this fairy tale began, sir.

You cannot call it just a poet's trick

Explain to me why many men are faithful

And true to one wife only.



KING



(Spoken) They are sick!

(Singing) A girl must be like a blossom

With honey for just one man.

A man must be like honey bee

And gather all he can.

To fly from blossom to blossom

A honey bee must be free,

But blossom must not ever fly

From bee to bee to bee.
