The Pirates of Penzance the Musical - How Beautifully Blue The Sky Lyrics


The song is written by Arthur Sullivan and W. S. Gilbert.

CHORUS OF GIRLS:
How beautifully blue the sky,
The glass is rising very high,
Continue fine I hope it may,
And yet it rained but yesterday.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.

MABEL:
Did ever maiden wake
From dream of homely duty,
To find her daylight break
With such exceeding beauty?
Did ever maiden close
Her eyes on waking sadness,
To dream of such exceeding gladness?

CHORUS OF GIRLS:
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.

FREDERIC:
Ah, yes! Ah, yes!
This is exceeding gladness!

CHORUS OF GIRLS:
How beautifully blue the sky,
The glass is rising very high,
Continue fine I hope it may,
And yet it rained but yesterday.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain),
Yet people say, I know not why,
That we shall have a warm July.

CHORUS OF GIRLS:
Tomorrow it may pour again
(I hear the country wants some rain).

FREDERIC:
Did ever pirate roll
His soul in guilty dreaming,
And wake to find that soul
With peace and virtue beaming?

CHORUS OF GIRLS:
How beautifully blue the sky,
The glass is rising very high,
Continue fine I hope it may,
And yet it rained but yesterday.
Continue fine I hope it may,
And yet it rained but yesterday.

MABEL:
Did ever maiden wake,
From dream of homely duty
To find her daylight break
With such exceeding beauty!
Ah, yes!
Ah, yes, ah, yes!

FREDERIC:
Did ever pirate loathed,
Forsake his hideous mission
To find himself betrothed
To lady of position!
Ah, yes!
Ah, yes, ah, yes!
