Oscar Hammerstein II - Western People Funny lyrics

[Thiang][Chorus 1:] To prove we're not barbarians They dress us up like savages! To prove we're not barbarians We wear a funny skirt! Ah.......h! [Wives:][Chorus 1:] To prove we're not barbarians They dress us up like savages! To prove we're not barbarians We wear a funny skirt! [Thiang:] Western People Funny[x3] Of that there is no doubt They feel so sentimental About the Oriental They always try to turn us Inside down down and upside out! [Wives:] Upside out and inside down! [Thiang:][Chorus 2:] To bruise and pinch our little toes Our feet are cramped in leather shoes They'd break if we had brittle toes But now they only hurt! Ah.......h! [Wives][Chorus 2:] To bruise and pinch our little toes Our feet are cramped in leather shoes They'd break if we had brittle toes But now they only hurt! Western People Funny![x3] Too funny to be true! [Thiang Thiang:] They think they civilise us Ah Whenever they advise us To learn to make the same mistake That they are making too! Ah.............h! [All:] THEY MAKE QUITE A FEW!
