No. 12 - Duet - The Queen and Moonshine - "In the studio."
Queen: | Though I have to stop at home, I should love abroad to roam, Where the soft Italian skies are blue and sweet, |
Moonshine: | Though our climate may be duller, I can get the local colour With an organ and a monkey in the street. |
Queen (after pause): | Oh, suppose that I should pine For a castle on the Rhine, Or a vineyard on the sunny south of France. |
Moonshine: | Here's a plan that's cheap and quicker, You can learn to draw their liquor, Which is what I always do when I've a chance. |
Both: | In the Studio, in the studio! You can find a use for ev'rything you see. If you want an imitation Or a talented creation, You can have it if you come to me! |
Queen: | Well, another treat would be Just a fortnight by the sea, In a little Brighton villa snug and trim. |
Moonshine: | If you think you like the notion, We can represent the ocean, And our friends will think we're really "in the swim." |
Queen (after pause): | Yes, I certainly confess, You're an artist, more or less, But I wish that I could find a harder task, |
Moonshine: | So complete my education, I'm a mine of information, And I'll answer any question that you ask. |
Both: | In the Studio, in the studio! You can find a use for ev'rything you see. If you want an imitation Or a talented creation, You can have it if you come to me! |
