In My Own Little Corner lyrics

[ELLA]

I’m as mild and as meek as a mouse

When I hear a command I obey

But I know of a spot in my house

Where no one can stand in my way

In my own little corner

In my own little chair

I can be whatever I want to be

On the wing of my fancy

I can fly anywhere

And the world will open its arms to me

I’m a young Norwegian princess or a milkmaid

I’m the greatest prima donna in Milan

I’m an heiress who has always had her silk made

By her own flock of silkworms in Japan!

I’m a girl men go mad for, love’s a game I can play

With a cool and confident kind of air

Just as long as I stay

In my own little corner

All alone

In my own

Little chair

I can be whatever I want to be

I’m a thief in Calcutta

I’m a queen in Peru

I’m a mermaid dancing upon the sea

I’m a huntress on an African safari –

It’s a dangerous kind of sport and yet it’s fun

In the night I sally forth to seek my quarry

And I find I forgot to bring my gun!

I am lost in the jungle

All alone and unarmed

When I meet a lioness in her lair!

Then I’m glad to be back

In my own little corner

All alone

In my own

Little chair
