BERTIE<br>

What have you got to say, Jeeves?<br>

What have you got to say? <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

Sir - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Your job's to protect me and to cushion me from shocks<br>

Not to let the poor young master end up crouching in a box<br>

Leave him posing as a coatstand there, the minute someone knocks<br>

No, somebody's got to pay, Jeeves<br>

Somebody's got to pay <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

If you would allow me, sir - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Threatened with a lynch mob and I lose my oldest friends<br>

I'm embroiled with random females bent on dire romantic ends<br>

Yours is frankly not a judgement, Jeeves, on which a chap depends<br>

It's bordering on risque, Jeeves<br>

Utterly declasse... <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

If I might - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Your job's to inspire me with encouragement and praise<br>

Not abandon me with Stiffy in some frightful leafy maze<br>

Not to make me change my name three times in just as many days <br>

Here I am in an extreme position<br>

General Custer out of ammunition<br>

Didn't get here by my own volition<br>

As Tennyson once thundered<br>

Someone here has badly blundered <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

Sir - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

It's chaos and disarray, Jeeves<br>

Misery and dismay <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

Perhaps if i could interr - <br>

<br>

BERTIE<br>

Calling this a shambles is to understate the case<br>

Look at all these banjo lovers, not a dry eye in the place<br>

I shall never have the nerve again to look them in the face<br>

So what have you got to say, Jeeves?<br>

What have you got to say? <br>

<br>

JEEVES<br>

I fear I must confess it, sir<br>

Despite my best endeavours to<br>

Ensure a fluid narrative<br>

Things haven't gone to plan <br>

Evens were overtaken, sir<br>

By unseen technicalities<br>

I really can assure you, though<br>

I've done the best I can <br>

There comes the odd occasion, sir<br>

When facing up to destiny<br>

We'd do as well as well remembering<br>

A man is but a man <br>

You have my firm assurances<br>

That come the grand denouement, sir<br>

Events will all resolve themselves<br>

In spite of come what may <br>

I only can apologize<br>

For any inconvenience<br>

Injurious to your dignity<br>

That happens on the way <br>

I simply wish to emphasize<br>

I have your interests uppermost<br>

And that, sir, in conclusion, sir<br>

Is all I have to say! <br>
