El Capitan, Act I: “Don Medigua, all for thy coming wait”

John Philip Sousa, Charles Klein, Thomas Frost (Lyricist)

[CASTILIAN NOBLES]
Don Medigua, all for thy coming wait
Gladly greet our leader for our courage is rather weak
Hail the Viceroy! He shall uphold the state
He must uphold us also for we shake when the natives speak

[PRINCESS & ISABEL]
His stern design you soon shall know
He's bold and clever, ready ever
For his King to strike a blow
From duty never can he sever

[CASTILIAN NOBLES]
Don Medigua, all for thy coming wait
Gladly greet our leader for our courage is rather weak
Hail the Viceroy! He shall uphold the statе
He must uphold us also for we shake whеn the grim natives speak

[DON MEDIGUA, spoken]
Psst! Pozzo! Are Cazarro's ruffians quite gone?

[POZZO, spoken]
Yes. 

[DON MEDIGUA, spoken]
Good. Then let them beware how they beard the lion in his den!

(sung)
If you examine humankind
I'm almost certain you will find
That fully ninety-nine percent
Perhaps a trifle more
Are bossing jobs they have no bent
Or earthly fitness for
A rumpus goes against my grain
I'm just as mild as mild can be
And that is why the King of Spain
To represent him hit on me

Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la la la!
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la la la!

[DON MEDIGUA & CASTILIAN NOBLES]
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la la la!
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la tra la!

[DON MEDIGUA]
WIth application most intense
I study not to give offense
I've had decided views of life
Since I was duly nursed
And so has my devoted wife
The very same reversed
When I say "no" and she says "yes"
My inward comments may be strong
But outwardly, well, I confess
That I am clearly in the wrong

Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la la la!
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la, la la!

[DON MEDIGUA & CASTILIAN NOBLES]
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la la la!
Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la! Tra la la la la la la la, tra la!
