Gilbert And Sullivan 1 Lyrics - Doug Anthony All Stars

Loudly let the trumpets bray 

Tum Tum Tara, Tum Tum Tara 

Ladies and gentlemen we present for you now the lost songs of 

Gilbert and Sullivan's "Mikado". These songs were censored at 

the time by Queen Victoria herself because of their intense 

political and revolutionary nature. We present them to you now, 

translated from the original Japanese. 

Loudly bang the sounding brasses 

Bom Bom Babom Bom Bom Bom 

Can we walk hand in hand through the park? 

We'll whisper sweet nothings and love sonnets by the bard 

It's a love I'll know will always last 

If we walk hand in hand through the park 

Shall we stroll along the promenade? 

I shall buy you ice-cream treats and shield you from the sun 

My heart beats louder than Venus did for Mars 

Shall we stroll along the promenade? 

Me lord, High executioner! 

Can you staple-gun my genitals to the wall? 

I wouldn't normally beg but I've been a trifle tense 

We could both have a ball 

If you staple-gun my genitals to the wall
