Da King & I - Western People Funny [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[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!
