In My Own Little Corner 歌詞

I'm as mild and as meek as a mouse When I hear a command I obey But I know of a spot in my house Where no one can stand in my way Chorus: In my own little corner In my own little chair I an be what ever I want to be On the wings of my fancy I can fly anywhere And the world will open its arms to me I'm a young egyptian princess Or a milk maid I'm the greatest prima donna in Milan I'm an heiress who has always had her silk made By her own flock of silkworms in Japan I'm a girl men go mad for Love's a game I can play With a cool and confident kind of air Just as long as I stay in my own little corner All alone in my own little chair I can be whatever I want to be I'm a slave in Calcutta I'm a queen in Peru I'm a mermaid dancing upon the sea I'm a huntress on an african safari Its a dangerous type of sport and yet its fun In the night I sally forth to seek my quarry But I find I forgot to bring my gun I am lost in the jungle All alone and unarmed When I meet a lioness in her lair Then I'm glad to be back in my own little corner All alone in my own little chair
