Message From a Nightingale (Bonus) Original Broadway Cast of The Drowsy Chaperone (Ft. Beth Leavel, Danny Burstein, Garth Kravits, Jason Kravits & Jennifer Smith)
[KITTY]
I bling a message
From a nightingale
I bling a message
From a nightingale
[GANGSTERS]
Nightingale, nightingale
Nightingale, song
-ong-ong-ong-ong
Nightingale, ahhh![ALDOLPHO, spoken]
You no bow? Empelor and American rady no see eye to eye
[DROWSY, spoken]
But Emperor, sometimes a different outlook can change your point of view.
[ALDOLPHO, spoken]
Whaaat?
[DROWSY, spoken]
Precisely.
(sung)
What is it about the Asians
That fascinates Caucasians?
What is it about the Asians
That's so nice?
Is it the won-tons? The egg rolls? The rice?
Perhaps it's Buddha or Confucius and their excellent advice
[ALDOLPHO]
What is it about Caucasians
That mystifies we Asians?
What is it about Caucasians that's so odd?
They call a pletty rady a broad
They have hair upon their chest
And they onry have one god?
Impossible!
[DROWSY, spoken]
Oh, Emperor, you're so light on your feet...
(sung)
The people of the world are varied
But differences are in the plan
[ALDOLPHO]
The onry difference I can see
That means anything to me
Is the one between a rady and a man
[DROWSY, spoken]
Don't you mean lady?
[ALDOLPHO, spoken]
Rrrrady
[DROWSY, spoken]
Precisely!
(sung)
What is it about the Asians?
[ALDOLPHO]
What is it about Caucasians?
[DROWSY]
What makes them so astounding?
[ALDOLPHO]
What makes them so confounding?
[ALDOLPHO & DROWSY]
It's you!
