Song: Message from a Nightingale
SONG SING
I bring a message from a nightingale
EMPEROR'S HENCHMEN
Nightingale, nightingale, nightingale song
SONG SING
I bring a message
From a nightingale
EMPEROR'S HENCHMEN
-Ong, -Ong, -Ong, -Ong
Nightingale ahhhh!
THE EMPEROR
You no bow? Emperor and American rady no see eye to eye
AMERICAN LADY
But Emperor, sometimes a different outlook can
change your point of view.
THE EMPEROR
Whaaaa?
AMERICAN LADY
Precisely.
What is it about the Asians
That fascinates Caucasians
What is it about the Asians
That's so nice
Is it the won tons? The egg rolls? The rice?
Perhaps it's Buddha or Confucius and their
excellent advice
THE EMPEROR
What is it about Caucasians
That mystifies we Asians?
What is it about Caucasians that's so odd?
They call a pretty rady a broad
They have hair upon their chest
And they only have one god?
Impossible
THE EMPEROR & AMERICAN LADY
Whaaaaa......
AMERICAN LADY
Oh Emperor, you're so light on your feet
The people of the world are varied
But differences are in the plan
THE EMPEROR
The only difference I can see
That means anything to me
Is the one between a rady and a man
