[lord chancellor]
the law is the true embodiment
of everything that’s excellent
it has no kind of fault or flaw
and i, my lords, embody the law
the const-tutional guardian i
of pretty young wards in chancery
all very agreeable girls, and none
are over the age of 21
a pleasant occupation for
a rather susceptible chancellor!

[peers]
a pleasant occupation for
a rather susceptible chancellor!

[lord chancellor]
but though the compliment implied
inflates me with legitimate pride
it nevertheless can’t be denied
that it has its inconvenient side
for i’m not so old, and not so plain
and i’m quite prepared to marry again
but there’d be the deuce for pay in the lords
if i fell in love with one of my wards!
which rather tries my temper, for
i’m such a susceptible chancellor!

[peers]
which rather tries his temper, for
he’s such a susceptible chancellor!

[lord chancellor]
and everyone who’d marry a ward
must come to me for my accord
and in my court i sit all day
giving agreeable girls away
with one for him and one for he
and one for you and one for ye
and one for thou and one for thee
but never, oh, never a one for me!
which is exasperating for
a highly susceptible chancellor

[peers]
which is exasperating for
a highly susceptible chancellor
