In Pierrot land,
not long ago,
there lived a certain young Pierrot,
And such a merry fellow as he,
just take it from me,
you never did see.
His ways were bright and breezy, too,
and so he found it easy to
Have real good times,
and flirt away like fun
with nearly ev'ry one.
Ah! Pierrot knew very well
how to kiss and never tell!
Just fancy!

Oh, Pierrot,
the girls adored him madly,
No Pierrot was such a pet.
Fie! Pierrot
he did behave so badly
for he broke the heart of each Pierrette.
Ah, Pierot!
his conduct truth to tell, oh!
Wasn't really "comme il faut"
for he was such a very fickle fellow,
still the girls adored Pierrot!
Just fancy!

Oh, Pierrot,
the girls adored him madly,
No Pierrot was such a pet.
Fie! Pierrot
he did behave so badly
for he broke the heart of each Pierrette.
Ah, Pierot!
his conduct truth to tell, oh!
Wasn't really "comme il faut"
for he was such a very fickle fellow,
still the girls adored Pierrot!

He laughed at love, because you see,
he didn't know what love could be,
Until he met with Cupid, you know,
who drew out his bow
and aimed at Pierrot.
Pierrot soon stopped his merriment,
For Cupid's bold experiment
Quite proved to him
that love alone
was worth all else
upon the earth.
So he wooed and won Pierrette,
just the next girl that he met!
Just fancy!

Oh Pierrot his flighty days are over.
No Pierrot led such a life,
Now, Pierrot, he simply lives in clover
with a little darling of a wife.
Ah, Pierrot, he thinks that's flirting's stupid,
though he liked it long ago, and oh!
they are so much obliged to Cupid
both Pierrette and her Pierrot!
Just fancy!

Oh Pierrot his flighty days are over.
No Pierrot led such a life,
Now, Pierrot, he simply lives in clover
with a little darling of a wife.
Ah, Pierrot, he thinks that's flirting's stupid,
though he liked it long ago, and oh!
they are so much obliged to Cupid
both Pierrette and her Pierrot!
