She's old enough to know better
She's old enough to know better
The King was in the garden
So cry, baby, cry
Cooking breakfast for the Queen
With a message at the local bird and bee
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play
She's old enough to know better
Make your mother sigh
Put on specially by the children for a lark
So cry, baby, cry
Painting pictures for the children's holiday
Playing piano for the children of the King
So cry, baby, cry, cry, cry
Cry, baby, cry
The Queen was in the playroom
Make your mother sigh
Make your mother sigh
And arriving late for tea
Cry, baby, cry
Round the table for a séance in the dark
Voices out of nowhere
So cry, baby, cry
She's old enough to know better
Cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
The Queen was in the parlor
The Duchess of Kirkcaldy always smiling
The King of Marigold was in the kitchen
The duke was having problems
At midnight there's a meeting
She's old enough to know better
