Текст песни The Second Minuet (Feat. John Grundy) (Joan Busby) с переводом

My Granny used to say to me when I was very small,

That she remembers well the day,

She went to her first ball;

How in her dress of crinoline she sat from two till eight,

And how through all those hours she wept. for fear she might be late

But Grandpapa & Grandmama had never even met,

When Grandpapa asked Grandmama

For the Second Minuet.

The hall she said was like a dream

Of blue and gold and red,

And Grandmama was quite the belle;

(At least so Grandma said.)

And all the men were very smart

In coats of every hue,

But one, the fairest of them all,

Was dressed in palest blue.

And Grandpapa and Grandmama had never even met,

When Grandpapa asked Grandmama

For the Second Minuet.

The man in blue came passing by,

And chanced to turn his head,

He fell at once in love with her,

(At least so Grandma said.)

And that is all about the ball,

That I to tell you dare,

For Grandpapa and Grandmama

Are sleeping over there!

BUT Grandpapa and Grandmama had never really met,

When Grandpapa kissed Grandmama

In the Second Minuet.
