Manners And Etiquette |
| At a social event on a most special day |
| Or at home with your family, when Mother should say |
| It’s time to eat, take your seat, no time to play |
| It’s time for manners and etiquette |
| Sit in your chair, never play with your food |
| Never speak with your mouth full, it’s terribly rude |
| Say «please» and say «thank you», don’t mumble or brood |
| And that’s called manners and etiquette |
| What you do and the way that you do it is |
| What makes you a princess all through, it looks |
| Easy, too and I love telling you all about |
| Your manners and etiquette |
| Napkins stay on your lap, one must not slurp one’s soup |
| Always wait to be served and be part of the group |
| No elbows on tables, your head mustn’t droop |
| And that’s good manners and etiquette |
| Don’t leave your seat, please, before dinner’s end |
| Sip your tea daintily, let your pinky extend |
| A lady-like voice is the sweetest, my friend |
| It’s all called manners and etiquette |
| What you do, also what you should not do is |
| What makes you a princess, you’ve got to be |
| Charming, too, it may sound like a lot but |
| It’s all just manners and etiquette |
| Oh, enter the room with your head held erect |
| If anything itches, let no one suspect |
| What’s worth more than riches is earning respect |
| And that comes from manners and etiquette |
| Can you see that to be the true princess you are |
| To grow older with grace, to grow wise and go far |
| You need more than beauty or wish on a star |
| What you need is manners and etiquette |
| Yes, we all need manners and etiquette |
| You’ll always be glad you have manners and etiquette |
| I just know it’s true and I’m learning, too |
