Various - Honor To Us All lyrics

This is what you give me to work with

Well honey, I've seen worse

We're going to turn this sow's ear into a silk purse

We'll have you washed and dried

Primped and polished till you glow with pride

Trust my recipe for instant bride

You'll bring honor to us all

Wait and see, when we're through

Boys will gladly go to war for you

With great fortune (and a great hairdo)

You'll bring honor to us all

A girl can bring her family

Great honor in one way

By striking a good match

And this could be that day

Men want good girls with good taste

Calm, obedient, who work fast paced

With good breeding and a tiny waist

You'll bring honor to us all

We all must serve our Emperor who guards us from the Huns

A man by bearing arms

A girl by bearing sons

In canon:

When we're through,

You can't fail

Like a lotus blossom soft and pale

How could any fellow say "no sale"

You'll bring honor to us all

There, you're ready

--Not Yet

An apple for serenity

A pendant for balance

Beads of jade for beauty

You must proudly show it

Now add a cricket, just for luck

And even *you* can't blow it.

Mulan:

Ancestors, hear my plea

Help me not to make a fool of me

And not uproot my family tree

Keep my father standing tall

Scarier than the undertaker

We are meeting the matchmaker

Guard our girls

As it fast unfurls

Please look kindly on these cultured pearls

Each a perfect porcelain doll

Please bring honor to us--

Please bring honor to us--

Please bring honor to us--

Please bring honor to us all!
