Paragraph Lyric
Sing me the kind of song
You hear in an operetta
Sing me the words I long
To hear out of Violetta
In an operetta
She will fast be outcast
From her castle, with nary a friend
But, since she's a princess,
There's hints of a prince
In the end
She'll enjoy some employ as a boy
With her name changed to Pip
Soon, by gum, she'll become
The brave captain of some
Pirate ship
Singing a thing fit for a king
In an operetta
In an operetta
It's the all-singing,all-dancing
Princess Violetta
Of the operetta
In an operetta
Within an operetta
Sing me the kind of song   You hear in an operetta   Sing me the words I long   To hear out of Violetta   In an operetta   She will fast be outcast   From her castle, with nary a friend   But, since she's a princess,   There's hints of a prince   In the end   She'll enjoy some employ as a boy   With her name changed to Pip   Soon, by gum, she'll become   The brave captain of some   Pirate ship   Singing a thing fit for a king   In an operetta   In an operetta   It's the all-singing,all-dancing   Princess Violetta   Of the operetta   In an operetta    Within an operetta
