Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Bruce, I loved that show!!!! I could hear them singing while reading thr lyrics. Thanks for the lovely reminder. Broadway musicals are my favorite form of theater!. Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked! Potter, reader,carousel lover and MomMom to Darah and Sara “I’m gonna be iron like a lion in Zion” Bob Marley Vinca Minor-periwinkle is my flower Bruce Moreland wrote: Zena She certainly couldn't have meant you..... Besides, you think SGIO would even know the meaning of ordinary? Surprised it's in her vocabulary as she's certainly the furthest thing from it....lol Do they let Aussies in the Ritz? More to the point what about Scilly girls? Whole thing reminds me of the song from Camelot (I am a simple folk but would definitely not call either of you one): GUENEVERE What do the simple folk do To help them escape when they\'re blue? The shepard who is ailing, the milkmaid who is glum The cobbler who is wailing from nailing his thumb When they\'re beset and besieged The folk not noblessly obliged However do they manage to shed their weary lot? Oh, what do simple folk do we do not? ARTHUR I have been informed by those who know them well They find relief in quite a clever way When they\'re sorely pressed, they whistle for a spell And whistling seems to brighten up their day And that\'s what simple folk do So they say GUENEVERE They whistle? ARTHUR So they say (they whistle for a while) GUENEVERE What else do the simple folk do To pluck up the heart and get through? The wee folk and the grown folk Who wander to and fro Have ways known to their own folk We throne folk don\'t know When all the doldrums begin What keeps each of them in his skin? What ancient native custom provides the needed glow? Oh, what do simple folk do? Do you know? ARTHUR Once, upon the road, I came upon a lad Singing in a voice three times his size When I asked him why, he told me he was sad And singing always made his spirits rise And that\'s what simple folk do I surmise GUENEVERE They sing? ARTHUR I surmise BOTH Arise, my love, arise, my love Apollo\'s lighting the skies, my love The meadows shine with columbine And daffodils blossom away Hear Venus call to one and all And taste delight while you may The world is bright and all is right And life is merry and gay GUENEVERE What else do the simple folk do? They must have a system or two They obviously outshine us at turning tears to mirth And tricks a royal highness is minus from birth What, then, I wonder, do they To chase all the goblins away? They have some tribal sorcery you haven\'t mentioned yet Oh, what do simple folk do to forget? ARTHUR Often, I am told, they dance a fiery dance And whirl \'till they\'re completely uncontrolled Soon the mind is blank and oh, they\'re in a trance A violent trance astounding to behold And that\'s what simple folk do So I\'m told GUENEVERE They dance? ARTHUR So I\'m told (they dance) GUENEVERE What else do the simple folk do To help them escape when they\'re blue? ARTHUR They sit around and wonder what royal folk would do And that\'s what simple folk do GUENEVERE (spoken) Oh, no, really? ARTHUR I have it on the best authority. BOTH (sung) Yes, that\'s what simple folk do > > > > > > > > > I've moved.
