I am the monarch of the sea
The Right Honorable Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B., Hebe, Bill Bobstay and Chorus
When I was a lad
The Right Honorable Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B. and Chorus

Josephine and Ralph Rackstraw
Can I survive this overbearing?
Principals and Chorus
Act 2
Sung By
Fair moon, to thee I sing!

Things are seldom what they seem
Little Buttercup and Captain Corcoran
The hours creep on apace
Josephine
Never mind the why or wherefore

The merry maiden and the tar
Captain Corcoran and Dick Deadeye

O'er the season vernal

Oh, never, never, never
The Learned Judge
May it please you, my lud
Counsel for the Plaintiff and All
That she is reeling
The Learned Judge, Foreman of the Jury, Plaintiff and All
Oh, gentlemen, listen, I pray

A nice dilemma we have here
The Learned Judge, Counsel for the Plaintiff, The Defendant and Plaintiff
I love him-I love him

The question, gentlemen
The Learned Judge, Counsel for the Plaintiff and All
Oh, joy unbounded
