THE ILLEGITIMATE DAUGHTER lyrics

FRENCH AMBASSADOR:
She's the illegitimate daughter
Of an illegitimate son
Of an illegitimate nephew
Of Napoléon.

SENATORS:
Napoléon?

FRENCH AMBASSADOR:
She's contemplating suicide
Because that man, he threw aside
A lady with the blue blood of Napoléon.
What sort of man
Is this who can
Insult my country
With his effront'ry

SENATORS:
To the illegitimate daughter
Of an illegitimate son
Of an illegitimate nephew
Of Napoléon.

FRENCH AMBASSADOR:
The Atlantic City witness!

Commencez, s'il vous plaît.
