This is what you give me to work with?

Well, honey, I've seen worse


We're going to turn this sow's ear

Into a silk purse



We'll have you

Washed and dried

Primped and polished till you glow with pride

Trust my recipe for instant bride

You'll bring honor to us all



Wait and see

When we're through

Boys will gladly go to war for you

With good fortune and a great hairdo

You'll bring honor to us all



A girl can bring her family

Great honor in one way

By striking a good match

And this could be the day



Men want girls with good taste

Calm

Obedient

Who work fast-paced

With good breeding

And a tiny waist

You'll bring honor to us all



We all must serve our Emperor

Who guards us from the Huns

A man by bearing arms

A girl by bearing sons



When we're through you can't fail

Like a lotus blossom soft and palm

How could any fellow say "No sale"

You'll bring honor to us all



There - you're ready

Not yet

An apple for serenity ...

A pendant for balance ...

Beads of jade for beauty

You must proudly show it

Now add a cricket just for luck

And even you can't blow it



Ancestors

Hear my plea

Help me not to make a fool of me

And to not uproot my fam'ly tree

Keep my father standing tall



Scarier than the undertaker

We are meeting our matchmaker

Destiny

Guard our girls

And our future as it fast unfurls

Please look kindly on these cultured pearls

Each a perfect porcelain doll



Please bring honor to us

Please bring honor to us

Please bring honor to us

Please bring honor to us

Please bring honor to us all
