In an Operetta

Lyrics

Sing me the kind of song you hear In an operetta, in an operetta Sing me the words I long to hear Out of Violetta, in an operetta She will fast be outcast from her castle With nary a friend But, since she's a princess There's hints of a prince in the end She'll enjoy some employ as a boy With her name changed to Pip Soon, by gum, she'll become the brave captain Of some pirate ship Singing a thing fit for a king In an operetta, in an operetta It's the all-singing, all-dancing Princess Violetta of the operetta In an operetta, within an operetta
