Hold, Monsters Annotated

[MABEL]
Hold, monsters!
Ere your pirate caravanserai
Proceed, against our will, to wed us all,
Just bear in mind that we are Wards in Chancery,
And father is a Major-General!

[SAMUEL]
We'd better pause, or danger may befall;
Their father is a Major-General!

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Yes, yes, he is a Major-General!

[MAJOR-GENERAL]
Yes, yes, I am a Major-General!

[SAMUEL]
For he is a Major-General!

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
For he is!

[SAMUEL, MAJOR-GENERAL, MABEL, CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Hurrah for the Major-General!

[MAJOR-GENERAL]
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Major-General!

[SAMUEL, MAJOR-GENERAL, MABEL, CHORUS OF GIRLS]
It is! Hurrah for the Major-General!
Hurrah for the Major-General!
