The Student Prince Page #5

more dignity than you did.

Now, you can laugh

but he's my responsibility.

Nonsense.

I look after him in Heidelberg.

Only his mind,

I look after his body.

This may come as a shock to you,

my dear Lutzy.

But the mind is

more important than the body.

Well, you've got to

have a body to be a king.

That is not my worry.

His mind isn't lost,

only his body.

And if anything happens to it,

it will be you who will hang.

Kathie! Kathie! Kathie!

I hear you call my friends

There's beer for all my friends

But patience is a virtue

Kathie recommends

I fear my ears will burst

Before I quench your thirst

I really should

teach you manners

But let's tap the barrel first

Come, boys,

let's all be gay, boys

For education should be

scientific play, boys

Don't dip your pen in ink, boys

Let every prudent student

study how to drink

Bom, bom, bom!

Although exams are near, boys

Though you may flunk

because you're drunk

Don't shed a tear

Bom, bom, bom!

Folks may call you rowdy

Your reputations may be cloudy

You'll never graduate

"Cum Laude"

But you'll get a passing mark

in drinking beer

Come, boys,

let's turn to beer, boys

And make it clear we're awfully

glad that Kathie's here, boys

Why waste your time

with books, boys

Let every prudent student

study women's looks

Bom, bom, bom!

Let old professors state, boys

you'll be dismissed

Because

you've kissed a pretty date

Bom, bom, bom!

Gladly we will throttle

Euripides and Aristotle

Then lift another stein

or bottle, boys

And all together

we will celebrate

Then lift another stein

or bottle, boys

And all together celebrate

Oh, boys, not now.

Who, who?

Who is so charming?

Who, who do we adore?

Who's so sweet and disarming?

Kathie, the queen of the corps

Yah, yah, yah!

Kathie, the queen of the corps

Yah, yah, yah!

Kathie's the girl we adore

Yeah!

Boys, I drink to your health.

To Kathie!

Kathie! Kathie! Kathie!

Kathie, Kathie,

come, come, come.

He's here. He's here.

Who's here, uncle?

The prince,

of course, his highness.

Let me look at you.

Turn. Oh, take this off,

take this off.

So here's the bouquet,

and the welcome song

to sing for you.

Go, darling.

Oh, uncle, must I?

Of course,

what's the matter with you?

I've never done it before

and I'm nervous.

Nervous, who isn't nervous?

There isn't an inn

in all Heidelberg

with a real live prince

for a tenant!

And if he doesn't stay,

I shall never live in town.

A matter of pride.

Besides

he is going to take 6 rooms.

Your highness,

permit me to say...

Your highness, it seems the

young lady has something to say.

Go on, my dear.

Welcome highness

to Herr Ruder's inn.

We hope you'll like our place.
