Honor To Us All
This is what you give me to work with
Well, honey, I've seen worse
We're gonna turn this sow's ear
Into a silk purse
We'll have you washed and dried
Primped and polished
'Til you glow with pride
Trust my recipe for instant bride
You'll bring honor to us all
Wait and see
When we're through
Boys wil gladly go to war for you
With good fortune
And a great hairdo
You'll bring honor to us all
A girl can bring her family
Great honor in one way
By striking a good match
And this could be the day
Men want girls with good taste
Calm
Obedient
Who work fast-paced
With good breeding
And a tiny waist
You'll bring honor to us all
We all must serve our Emperor
Who guards us from the Huns
A man by bearing arms
A girl by bearing sons
When we're through
You can't fail
Like a lotus blossom
Soft and pale
How could any fellow
Say, "No sale"
You'll bring honor to us all
You'll bring honor to us all
You'll bring honor to us all
There, you're ready
Not yet
An apple for serenity
A pendant for balance
Beads of jade for beauty
You must proudly show it
Now add a cricket just for luck
And even you can't blow it
Ancestors, hear my plea
Help me not to make a fool of me
And to not uproot my family tree
Keep my father standing tall
Scarier than the undertaker
We are meeting our matchmaker
Destiny, guard our girls
And our future as it fast unfurls
Please look kindly on these cultured pearls
Each a perfect porcelain doll
Please bring honor to us all
(Please bring honor to us all)
Please bring honor to us all
(Please bring honor to us all)
Please bring honor to us all
Well, honey, I've seen worse
We're gonna turn this sow's ear
Into a silk purse
We'll have you washed and dried
Primped and polished
'Til you glow with pride
Trust my recipe for instant bride
You'll bring honor to us all
Wait and see
When we're through
Boys wil gladly go to war for you
With good fortune
And a great hairdo
You'll bring honor to us all
A girl can bring her family
Great honor in one way
By striking a good match
And this could be the day
Men want girls with good taste
Calm
Obedient
Who work fast-paced
With good breeding
And a tiny waist
You'll bring honor to us all
We all must serve our Emperor
Who guards us from the Huns
A man by bearing arms
A girl by bearing sons
When we're through
You can't fail
Like a lotus blossom
Soft and pale
How could any fellow
Say, "No sale"
You'll bring honor to us all
You'll bring honor to us all
You'll bring honor to us all
There, you're ready

Please bring honor to us all
(Please bring honor to us all)
Please bring honor to us all
(Please bring honor to us all)
Please bring honor to us all
