The Pirates of Penzance the Musical - Oh, Men of Dark and Dismal Fate Lyrics
The song is written by Arthur Sullivan and W. S. Gilbert.
MAJOR-GENERAL:
Oh, men of dark and dismal fate
Forego your cruel employ
Have pity on my lonely state
I am an orphan boy!
SAMUEL & PIRATE KING:
An orphan boy?
MAJOR-GENERAL:
An orphan boy!
CHORUS OF PIRATES:
How sad, an orphan boy!
MAJOR-GENERAL:
These children whom you see
Are all that I can call my own!
CHORUS OF PIRATES:
Poor fellow!
MAJOR-GENERAL:
Take them away from me
And I shall be indeed alone!
CHORUS OF PIRATES:
Poor fellow!
MAJOR-GENERAL:
If pity you can feel
Leave me my sole remaining joy -
See at your feet they kneel;
Your hearts you cannot steel
Against the sad,
Sad tale of the lonely orphan boy!
PIRATE CHORUS, PIRATE KING, & SAMUEL:
Poor fellow!
See at our feet they kneel!
Our hearts we cannot steel
Against the sad,
Sad tale of the lonely orphan boy!
SAMUEL:
The orphan boy!
SAMUEL & PIRATE KING:
The orphan boy!
See at our feet they kneel!
Our hearts we cannot steel
Against the sad,
Sad tale of the lonely orphan boy!
PIRATE CHORUS, PIRATE KING, & SAMUEL:
Poor fellow!

SYNOPSIS
Pour, O Pour The Pirate Sherry
When Frederic Was A Little Lad
Oh, Better Far To Live And Die
Oh, False One, You Have Deceived Me!
Climbing Over Rocky Mountain
Stop, Ladies, Pray!
Oh, Is There Not One Maiden Breast
Poor Wandering One
What Ought We To Do?
How Beautifully Blue The Sky
Stay, We Must Not Lose Our Senses
Hold, Monsters!
I Am The Very Model Of A Modern Major-General
Oh, Men of Dark and Dismal Fate
Oh, Dry The Glistening Tear
Then Frederic
