We sail the ocean blue
I'm called little Buttercup

Sorry her lot

Over the bright blue sea Comes Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B.
Women's Chorus
We sail the ocean blue
(Reprise)
Men's Chorus
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
A British tar is a soaring soul
Ralph Rackstraw, Bill Bobstay and Bob Beckett
Refrain, audacious tar, your suit from pressing
Josephine and Ralph Rackstraw
Can I survive this overbearing?
Principals and Chorus
Act 2
Sung By
Fair moon, to thee I sing!
Captain Corcoran
Things are seldom what they seem
Little Buttercup and Captain Corcoran
The hours creep on apace
Josephine
Never mind the why or wherefore
Josephine, Captain Corcoran and The Right Honorable Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B.
The merry maiden and the tar
Captain Corcoran and Dick Deadeye
Carefully on tiptoe stealing
Dick Deadeye, Captain Corcoran, Josephine, Ralph Rackstraw, Hebe, The Right Honorable Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B. and Men's Chorus
Farewell, my own, Light of my life, farewell!
Ralph Rackstraw, Josephine, The Right Honorable Sir Joseph Porter, K.C.B., Hebe, Dick Deadeye, Bill Bobstay, Bob Beckett, Little Buttercup and Chorus
A many years ago, when I was young and charming

Sung By
Hark, the hour of ten is sounding

When first my old, old love I knew

All hail great judge

Swear thou the jury
Counsel for the Plaintiff and Usher
Where is the plaintiff?
Counsel for the Plaintiff and Usher
Comes the broken flower
Bridesmaids
O'er the season vernal
Plaintiff
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
The Defendant and Bridesmaids
A nice dilemma we have here
The Learned Judge, Counsel for the Plaintiff, The Defendant and Plaintiff
I love him-I love him
Plaintiff and The Defendant
The question, gentlemen
The Learned Judge, Counsel for the Plaintiff and All
Oh, joy unbounded
