Enrico Garzilli - A Servant's Duty lyrics

Guibert

It's a servant's duty to know everything

How else could they help out?

How else could they help out?

Blanche

I would never stoop to look through keyholes, no

Never would I try

Never, never, not I

I am not the type to spy through keyholes, no

Others may try, not I

Others may try, not I

Oh but, oh but, if I could only see

One little glimpse from her tree

Oh but, oh but, if I could only catch

One little look at that match

Guibert

I would never listen close to keyholes, no

Never would I try

I cross my heart, not I

I would never put my ear to keyholes, no

Even if it's fun

No, that's just not done

Oh but, oh but, if I could only hear

One little whisper so clear

Blanche

Oh but, oh but, what I would not face

If I could be in her place

Guibert

So, it's a servant's duty to know everything

How else can I help out

Blanche

Else, there would be some doubt

Guibert

And it's a servant's duty to learn his master's trade

Much better will he serve

Blache

Hope I'll keep my nerve

Both

Oh but, oh but, maybe she's too afraid

Perhaps we should go to her aid

Guibert

Yes, we must find out before it gets too late

Blanche

Now's the time can't wait

Both

Now's the time can't wait

It's a servant's duty to know everything

Oh yes

How else could I help out

Now, there is no doubt

Oh yes, oh yes, oh
