Mulan movie - Honor to Us All lyrics
rate me<br>
This is what you give me to work with?<br>
Well, honey, I've seen worse<br>
We're going to turn this sow's ear<br>
into a silk purse <br>
<br>
We'll have you washed and dried<br>
Primped and polished<br>
till you glow with pride<br>
Trust me recipe for instant bride<br>
You'll bring honor to us all <br>
<br>
Wait and see<br>
When we're through<br>
Boys will gladly go to war for you<br>
With good fortune<br>
And a great hairdo<br>
You'll bring honor to us all <br>
<br>
A girl can bring her family<br>
great honor in one way<br>
By striking a good match<br>
And this could be the day<br>
<br>
Men want girls with good taste<br>
Calm<br>
Obediant<br>
Who work fast-paced<br>
With good breeding<br>
And a tiny waist<br>
You'll bring honor to us all <br>
<br>
We all must serve our Emperor<br>
Who guards us from the Huns<br>
A man by bearing arms<br>
A girl by bearing sons <br>
<br>
When we're through<br>
You can't fail<br>
Like a lotus blossom<br>
Soft and pale<br>
How could any fellow<br>
Say "No Sale"<br>
You'll bring honor to us all <br>
<br>
There - you're ready<br>
Not yet<br>
An apple for serenity<br>
A pendant for balance<br>
Beads of jade for beauty<br>
You must proudly show it<br>
Now add a cricket just for luck<br>
And even you can't blow it <br>
<br>
Ancestors<br>
Hear my plea<br>
Help me not to make a<br>
fool of me<br>
And to not uproot<br>
my family tree<br>
Keep my father standing tall <br>
<br>
Scarier than the undertaker<br>
We are meeting our matchmaker<br>
Destiny<br>
Guard our girls<br>
And our future<br>
as it fast unfurls<br>
Please look kindly on<br>
these cultured pearls<br>
Each a perfect porcelain doll <br>
<br>
Please bring honor to us<br>
Please bring honor to us<br>
Please bring honor to us<br>
Please bring honor to us<br>
Please bring honor to us all<br>
<br>
