No
better life could a barber wish for, nothing more noble could ever
exist. La, la, etc.
Razors and brushes, scissors and scalpels
are at my fingertips
Everything’s here.
Then there’s the ‘extras.’
Part of the business.
Some for the ladies, some for the gentlemen.
Some for the ladies, la, la, etc.
Some for the gentlemen, la, la, etc.
Repeat Refrain.
Everyone
calls me, everyone wants me,
Ladies and young men, old men and maidens
Where is my wig, sir? Give me a shave, please…
Leeches for bleeding…
Letters for reading…
Everyone calls me, everyone wants me, (2X)
Where is my wig, sir?
|
Give
me a shave, please!
Letters for reading!
Hey! Figaro! Figaro! Figaro! Etc.
Oh my, they’re loud!
Oh my, those crowds…
Surround me!
One at a time,
For pity’s sake! (3X)
One at a time please (3X)
For pity’s sake!
Figaro! I’m here.
Hey, Figaro! I’m here.
Figaro here, Figaro there (2X)
Figaro up, Figaro down (2X)
Faster and faster I fly like a lightning bolt,
I am the barber of Seville.
Of Seville (4X)
Ah, bravo Figaro! Bravo, bravissimo (2X)
All of my luck (2X)
All of my luck it will not fade away. La, la, etc.
All of my luck (2X)
All of my luck it will not fade away.
I am the barber of Seville. (2X)
Yes of Seville! (3X)
|
La,
la, etc.
I am the barber of Seville, make way! La, la, etc.
Quickly, it’s dawn and I must be in my shop! Quickly! La, la,
etc.
Refrain: Ah, this is livin’
So much I’ve been given (2X)
For a barber who’s driven
To be the best! (2X)
Ah, bravo Figaro!
Bravo, bravissimo, bravo!
La, la, etc.
Luckiest man in the world, it is true, bravo! La, la, etc.
Luckiest man in the world, it is true (2X) La, la, etc.
Daytime
or nighttime, I’m working full-time, I’m always moving,
I never quit.
