Lyrics The World Within/Without - Remo Fernandes

Oh Mother Superior, what a wonderful welcome that was
Ahahaha! Come my child, let me show you around
This is our beautiful chapel
Where you shall pray
Morning, noon, evening and night
Every day
Oh, I love it!
This is our well stocked refectory
Where you shall have your meals
Which like the prayers shall be
Four times a day
Four times?
Mm hmm! You'll get used to it child
The hallowed school where you shall hear
Our graceful girls
Reciting Shakespeare
Mmmm! Impressive
And the gardens, my dear
And the playgrounds, my dear
And these, my dear
Are your comfortable quarters
Worthy of God's chosen daughters
Oh, Mother! Everything is so perfect in here
Ah, hahaha! I'm so glad you like it, my child
Do make yourself at home now, hum
Thank you, I shall! And I think I'll start by opening the window
Nooooooo! What have you done, my child
Mother! Mother, what's that
Oh, Teresa! Those are the terrible Calcutta slums
Stinking
Rotting
Disgusting
Revolting
Slimy
Grimy
Filthy
Mucky
Seedy
Sleazy
Horrible
Terrible
Shabby
Shoddy
Nasty
Musty
Forbidden
This window is to remain forever shut
Oh, Mother, that was such a sad sight
Hehehe... Yes... But do not look, child, and it shall not exist
But it exists, Mother! So I must look
