[verse 1]

[cath]
my heart races fast as i try to find jest
i can’t see him in the crowd of all the king’s guests
i really must hustle
not get caught up in the bustle
cause i really don’t want to see the king yet

[margaret]
there you are lady catherine! i’m glad to see you here
there’s much gossip from the ball that you really must hear
but did you know, did you know?
that its so, very so
the jabberwock is in our midst
[countess]
we’re scared, very scared
there’s no way to prepare
and my back is giving me fits!

[chorus 1]

[ensemble]
but we play
croquet in thе garden
croquet in the gardеn
we hear the whisperings of aristocratic life
we’re spreading all the rumors about the king’s new wife
all our problems are dismissed
and its during times like this
that we play croquet in the garden

[countess, spoken]
why lady mearle! that is a lovely hat you are wearing. did you by chance purchase it at that new hat shoppe at the crossroads? i’ve been meaning to go there myself

[margaret, spoken]
i-i did get it there. that is to say…naturally, that pride and…the sin of arrogance…it requires willpower to…to doff the vanity that such attention-grabbing-ness might…otherwise…prevail upon oneself…amen!

[cath, duke, and countess]
amen?
[countess]
can you believe how horribly the king’s black and white ball went? and that awful maid disrupted everything!

[cath, spoken]
but how brave the duke was when facing off the beast!

[jest, sung]
the duke was better than us all
for how he acted at the ball
i think that most of all, the ladies wouldn’t disagree…

[duke, spoken]
well i- that is to say, any man would have…lady mearle was in danger, it wasn’t anything spectacular i assure you…

[bridge]

[jest, sung]
and he’s humble, very humble
and he doesn’t dare to mumble
anything that is less than kind

[cath]
i think it’s sweet, very sweet
and not an easy feat
that saving you was on his mind
[chorus 2]

[ensemble]
so we play
croquet in the garden
croquet in the garden
as we gossip all about the king’s black and white ball
a terrifying day, it turned out to be for all
the duke’s brave act
and lady margaret’s new hat
are why we gossip at croquet in the garden

[jest, spoken]
you must be the wise lady mearle i’ve heard all about
and lady pinkerton, i believe?

[cath, spoken]
enchanted, mr. joker

[jest, spoken]
the king has requested a word with you

[king, spoken]
lady catherine, i’m-i’m

[jest, spoken]
glad to see you here

[king, spoken]
glad to see you here! i had really hoped to catch your tie…eye! i was wondering, i mean i wanted to talk you about-

[jest, spoken]
-if you would be willing to bake more of those lemon tarts you brought to the ball!

[king, spoken]
well that’s not what i was going to ask… but those tarts were delightful! maybe we could serve those at the wedding!…
anyways lady pinkerton, what i was going to say-

[cath, spoken]
a wedding, your majesty? i wasn’t aware you had chosen a bride. i look forward to bestowing many congratulations on our future queen

[king, spoken]
oh! i haven’t proposed yet, but with you here lady pinkerton-

[cath, spoken]
oh how clever you are! i’m sure the lady is grateful that you aren’t hurrying. no one likes to be rushed into these things. men don’t realize that we prefer a courtship first

[king, spoken]
oh. you do?

[jest, spoken]
lady pinkerton is correct. you are a wise man to know it already

[cath, spoken]
you see we women like a long romance. proposals shouldn’t come as such a surprise

[king, spoken]
yes i see, that makes much more sense. thank you for the wonderful advice

[chorus 3]

[jest and cath, sung]
oh of course, yes of course
ask us more, ask us more
if you need more help we will suffice

[ensemble]
as we play
croquet in the garden
croquet in the garden
we hear the whisperings of aristocratic life
we’re spreading all the rumors about the king’s new wife
all our problems are dismissed
and its during times like this
that we play croquet in the garden
we’ll keep playing croquet in the garden
croquet in the garden
