Keep It Quiet 1915 'A Maid And A Myth'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 01 Nov 2004

I'm going to make a confidence,
if you will keep it dark
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet.
No one has yet suspected me
and I have made my mark
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet.
Now I am, very villainous.
Each thought a heinous plot,
I'm going to wed a girl for gold
and blast me if I'll not.
Her friends and lovers I defy,
I'll baffle all the lot
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet!

Desp'rate Desmond, as it were,
Ruthless Geoffrey I prefer
I'm the villain in the play.
Keep it quiet!
Handsome Harry I shall foil,
Have proud beauty in the toils
Keep it quiet!

No method is too desperate,
if I can win her hand
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet!
For I am quite determined
that the fortune I shall land
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet!
If anyone came med'ling
then prepare him for the worst,
to shed a keg o' human blood
I have a dreadful thirst
and so the man who balks me
has become a man accursed
Keep it quiet Sh!
Keep it quiet!

Desp'rate Desmond, as it were,
Ruthless Geoffrey I prefer
I'm the villain in the play.
Keep it quiet!
Handsome Harry I shall foil,
Have proud beauty in the toils
Keep it quiet!
