(The Importance of Being Earnest OST) - Lady, Come Down
(Rupert Everett and Algy, Colin Firth as Jack)
Rupert: After you dear boy. Colin: Oh no after you. Rupert: No, no, no, do go first I'm not really good at the high bits. I'm much better low. Colin: Oh we'll see... Hm hm hm hmm Rupert: 1 2. and!
Colin: The western wind is blowing fair Across the dark Aegean Sea Rupert: And at the secret marble stair My Tyrian galley waits for thee
Together: Come down, the purple sail is spread The watchman sleeps within the town Oh leave thy lily flowerbed Oh lady mine, come down
(Chorus:) Together: Come down Lady come down Come down Lady come down, Oh Lady come down
She will not come I know her well Of lover's vows she hath no care And little good a man can tell Of one so cruel and so fair
Colin: True love is but a woman's toy They never know their lover's pain Rupert: And I who loved as loves a boy Must love in vain Together: Must love in vain
Come down Lady come down Come down Lady come down
Colin: I think your high notes may have damaged our chances old boy. You do want them to come down don't you? Rupert: Well she is never gonna come down if you're singing like that. You're completely out of tune Colin: How dare you Rupert: I'll take this bit Colin: you leave this to me. You go lie down around Rupert: no I'll take this bit Colin: out of my way I'm coming through Rupert: go easy, my dear fellow Colin: COME DOOOOOWWWNNN
Come down Lady come down (Rupert: Jack, you're messing it more) __ Come down Lady come down
Colin: That wasn't so bad, was it? Hmmmmhmhhhhmmmmm Rupert: They're not gonna come down. D'you think we should go up? Maybe we should go up. Colin: Algy you're always talking nonsense. Rupert: Well it's better than listening to it Colin: Lady come down Rupert: Doo bee doo bee doo bee doo bee doo
