2025 Broadway The Pirates of Penzance the Musical - Oh, Is There Not One Maiden Breast Lyrics
The song is written by Arthur Sullivan and W. S. Gilbert.
FREDERIC: Oh, is there not one maiden breast Which does not feel the moral beauty Of making worldly interest Subordinate to sense of duty? Who would not give up willingly All matrimonial ambition To rescue such a one as I From his unfortunate position! From this position To rescuer such a one as I From his unfortunate position!
CHORUS OF GIRLS: Alas! there's not one maiden breast Which seems to feel the moral beauty Of making worldly interest Subordinate to sense of duty!
FREDERIC: Oh, is there not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion Have caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning man’s affection? To such an one, if such there be I swear by Heaven’s arch above you If you will cast your eyes on me However plain you be – I'll love you! However plain you be –- If you will cast your eyes on me -- However plain you be –- I’ll love you! I'll love you! I'll love you!
CHORUS OF GIRLS: Alas! there's not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion Have caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning man’s affection!
FREDERIC: Not one?
CHORUS OF GIRLS: No, no - not one!
FREDERIC: Not one?
CHORUS OF GIRLS: No, no!
MABEL: Yes, one!
CHORUS OF GIRLS: 'Tis Mabel!
MABEL: Yes, 'tis Mabel!
